Perhaps a Doc FAD/Hackfest to cull through these? If there's a way to divvy up pages amongst volunteers and all that's needed is a "yes, archive" / "no, still relevant" / "relevant, needs updating" decision, that'd be better than archiving the lot. (Might also be a good way to hook people into docs work - it'd certainly be an easy task for first timers...)
