It seems rather pointless to me to label 20k pages needing citation. But that's probably not a technical question.
How many editors does en have?
If I do a random walk on en Wikipedia, almost every page seems to have some tag needing something ("This page is in need of <insert your pet peeve here>"). This reminds me of all these "under construction" pages in the earlier days of the web.
Well, perhaps, but those sites weren't being crawled hourly (and minutely :-), but people a) equipped and b) inclined to fix things.
I'd ask if anyone has any statistics on how often those tags are affixed and removed, but...
