Right but nobody will know to check back on the article. Generally
articles are monitored by watching the rc feeds, at least that is what
I used to do.

First you must be familiar with the {{uc}}.
This tag tells a tagger/deleter... STOP I'm working here !
If, for each new article, we simply automatically tag it {{uc}} with
today's
date, then no new article should get tagged for deletion simply because
it's
new and under developed.
IF a new article is merely spam, or vandalism of course, you can delete it
even with a uc tag.
Some editors, like myself, do not develop articles all-at-once and plop
them
in, rather we develop them in-project with a bit and piece here and there
and given several hours, you have a full article, or at least a useful
stub.
So new article patrollers just see one sentence, and then five minutes
later
two more sentences, and then 15 minutes later another paragraph.... they
are
likely to want to tag it as too stubby right away. The uc tag stops that.
But new editors won't know, first day, about this tag . So making it
automatic would solve that issue.
