Well, it's been almost a week since discussion last happened and there's definitely consensus here to implement edit filters. If we could come to a decision on some definite numerical limits to use, and another admin weighs in, I can create the filters using the bot's admin rights.

For clarity, users automatically gain the autoconfirmed right four days after their account is created. They don't need to have made any edits.

I'm inclined to go with something like the rate limits skelly suggested for page creation in the main namespace - three pages per day for users who haven't been autoconfirmed, then 15 pages per day once users have the autoconfirmed right. 15 per day is quite high IMO, but I'm just thinking of the scenario in which someone uploads a lot of their own older stories/PD works. Any more page creations than that, you should be coordinating it with wiki staff anyway.

For edits, I would suggest a limit of 100 edits to the main namespace and 50 edits to the user/user talk namespaces (since these are often vandalised during attacks) per day for non-autoconfirmed users, then no edit limits once users are autoconfirmed.

Obviously rollbacks & admins (and content mods, if the right is implemented) would be able to bypass these limits.
