I’d set it to 1000 or so. For this to work well, there should be some way of seeing and discussing changes, like wiki history and discussion pages, or stack exchange comments (as opposed to replies). For LW, I’d start with something like stack exchange comments (a meta-comment area under a post distinguished by lightweight layout, smaller font, and shifted by bigger left margin), and add special comments that mark edits to the post and post’s tags, with a link to the diff (“Fixed paragraph spacing [diff] -- 03 March 2012 08:30:42PM by Konkvistador”).
In the sense of using the same log in profile to edit wiki articles. As well as upvotes being used to encourage quality work being put into editing the wiki.
Edit:
Given unlimited development resources we’d want to integrate the two userbases, have a karma requirement to edit the Wiki, and such things, but we don’t have much development resources (whines for Python volunteers again). But I would still like to see a list of recent edits and/or active pages in the Less Wrong blog sidebar, and a list of recent blog posts and recent comments in the Wiki sidebar. Of course the first priority is getting the Wiki set up on Less Wrong at all, rather than the current foreign host—I’m told this is in In Progress.

Speaking of which a clever integration of LW and its wiki would be very beneficial.
I don’t know what that’s intended to mean.

Edit:
It seems this was envisioned in the beginning.
