Transcluded Special:NewPages only offer full logs with every information like bytes changed, timestamps etc. It would be nice to be able to transclude Special:NewPages like Special:Wantedpages, thus giving only the newest n entries in a compact list.
Also try http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Newest_Pages (but I dropped it and instead upped my $wgRCMaxAge and ran rebuildrecentchanges.php).
