I would like to build rules that depend on the age of a page. To do this, I think we need a article_creation_timestamp and/or article_age.
It would be particularly useful from a Wikinews perspective if this could be linked also with regards to the time an article was first sighted with FlaggedRevs. Given en.WP's mulling of FlaggedRevs for vandalism control, they might also find that useful.

As an alternative, the cl_timestamp field of the categories could also potentially be useful to wikinews

It could be built using variables containing tuples (category, timestamp), but that requires a new set of functions to handle tuples/arrays/etc (bug 25673). Or it could be implemented via a function like article_cat_ts(articleid,category)
