It is interesting, though, to speculate whether there is a "mature 
dynamic" that is or should be taking over. There would be a few 
different sides:

- (focus on metrics) Article count -> average length
- (growth area) Turn redlinks blue -> upgrade stub
- (lists) Post many lists -> maintain lists in the sense that has been 
discussed
- (direction) Topics people come up with off the top of their heads -> 
topics generated by reading the wiki
- (hypertext network) negative curvature -> flat -> positive curvature 
(this means that new articles tend not to generate a new redlink when 
properly wikified, rather than tending to generate a couple).

I think the interest of this sort of talk is that it is complementary to 
"quality drives" (zoomed out, rather than zoomed in).
