If there was a message that was very long, with about five equally long messages on it, and they are both well over a year old, even if that only was six messages, I see a need to archive it there. I would say we might need an age over messages count formula, like if it's this month, you need 25 messages, 4 months 20, and you see what I mean.

Not to point out that if we did that we would need a better formula! :) Or, the easiest way is to say that only old/resolved discussions can be archived, leaving it completely flexible and up to the end user. So what if someone has a small archive? It's their choice if they wanted to archive a small number of messages and it's certainly not the wiki's job to go around harassing users because their archive is too small.
