I would like to know if there is a way either module or out-of-box drupal. To enforce revision creation everytime a piece of content is changed. Also, is there a method of removing revisions that are older than X number of days. Thanks for any response or links.

I think there is no module yet, but its easy to force

just use

<?php
function hook_nodeapi(...) {
  switch ($op) {
    case 'submit':
      $node->revision = TRUE;
  }
}?>

Or use the settings in the nodetype settings

You don't need code to enforce revisions-- simply check the "create new revision" option in the 'workflow settings' fieldset for the content type and don't give editors the 'administer nodes' permission.

For trimming revisions see the http://drupal.org/project/revision_deletion module.

That sounds like the best way to do is WorldFallz.
