It would also break many existing pages, so these would need to be found and fixed. Many links could already be turned to InterWiki syntax.
  • Google does appear to index previous versions of pages here, which means that reverts are only partially useful. I think the NoIndexHistory point above should be applied to fix that.
  • AntiSpamRecommendations
