I agree that using a template in this way would be better than moving pages to the Obsolete namespace. I do think that we should have some automatic process to mark pages as possibly obsolete as well. Perhaps we could make better use of the categories? My thoughts are having a category for pages that will automatically be marked as obsolete, a category for potentially obsolete pages, one for obsolete and another for pages which will never be obsolete, or pages kept in that state for the archive (e.g. blueprints). Each page could also have a designated owner who can be contacted when a page is being considered for moving to the obsolete category - even if it's just a comment at the bottom of the page, or another category - to give the human review element. I'm not very familiar with mediawiki - but perhaps templates would be better used for all of the above.
