...I remain unclear that a "wall of text" is actually a problem, as there are so few pages that have enough issues for there to be a "wall of text" (i.e. there are only ~25 pages that have 7 issue or more). I remain unconvinced based on the low number of pages with many issues, that assigning significance ratings to things is of much importance. There might be some meta-data for problems it might be worth capturing though like the first/last revision known to include a problem. That might be a better way to assign a non-arbitrary rating for things that would help to identify problems that may need re-review as we could subtract that revision from the current revision and work out an age/age since review for each problem. That info is really only useful to editors though, so I'm not sure it needs a banner displayed rather than something that would invisibly spit out relevant categories.

:I have since updated [[Template:RatingProblemFix]] to have additional functionality to help aid keeping track of stuff. There are now six new categories that the template can put a page into. As for getting more people to edit, yeah, can't help that but what I can help with is keeping better track of missing data. You can put the six categories in [[Project: To Do#Regular tasks]], [[:Category:Wiki maintenance]], or even the [[Main Page]] to increase visibility that something needs to be updated.
