That's a good point. Can we find out how often wiki pages are viewed?
That might be more useful.

Perhaps we could use a "staging" area (like an {{oldest}} category) for
the oldest 2460 pages too.

While I'm always hesitant to ask people for more effort (especially
myself...), I wonder if we could do this in steps of, say, 500 pages at
a time.

The first 500 pages could be moved into the {{oldest}} category and kept
there for a week. Interested contributors can review the pages if they
wish, and remove them from the archival queue as relevant. Remaining
pages can be archived after a week when another 500 old pages can be
moved into the staging area.

I just saw Pete's email, and it seems like we can use wikibots to
automate the staging?
