I have created lists of pages according to their edit stamp.

Note that no numbers can go up except those for the current year.
Some pages have stamps that are at odds with the change date given when the page is listed. I don't know why - this is gleaned from my logs and is completely independent of Ward's database.
from LeastRecentChanges, there are still differing views regarding this approach.
Is it possible to make available the script to redo this analysis? I have seen good pages rescued already. Thanks for your initiative.
I make the following observation. This page and the ideas that gave rise to it are, in some part, a reaction against RecentChanges and the "now now now" mentality. To update this page too quickly could be regarding as falling into the same trap. Leave it lie for a time and see what comes of it.
- So ArguingWithGhosts is the lesser evil, compared to WikiNow?
- ArguingWithGhosts does not contradict WikiNow, but rather corroborates it
