Whose night. Wikipedia never sleeps.
Good point, but I think you will find that it doesn't really matter when it gets wiped. Do we even need revisions at all apart from say 2 or 3 for the purpose of feature demonstration. However if you are really asking for a time: Wiping at 0:00 UTC would make the most sense...

Adding special cases to the code to restrict the number of revisions that a particular page will save...messy and possibly difficult.
Adding a bot to move a page, create a new version of the original page, and add a speedy tag to the moved page...relatively clean, not too hard to program, and keeps the main code pristine.
True, a bot would be better. It wouldn't need admin rights, would it?
