Default Fixing up the Wiki

Well, I've been a member of a different (Mabi-unrelated) Wiki for a while, and I know some ways to get MabiWiki a bit more organized and a lot cleaner. Here is the list:
  • Delete unneeded pages.
    I've created a template that can be put on any page which needs to be deleted, so that sysops can check the category every now and then and delete all the pages. I mean, there's an article called "Fireball Page 10" and one called "Fireball page 10," where the only difference is the capitalization.

    Please go to Category:Candidates for deletion for all the pages that needs to be deleted.
  • Merge similar articles into one.
    Going on to the Fireball pages, instead of making separate ones, we can make a page titled "Fireball," add the information about the skills, how to obtain, etc., and then make a list of the pages and where you can find them.
  • Categorize every page.
    This is the key to organization. Even if nobody checks the categories, it's a much faster way to navigate through things and fix up other pages accordingly.
  • Redirects.
    Instead of creating pages just for putting "See Cooking," you could just do "#REDIRECT Cooking" (with the double brackets to link) so it automatically goes onwards to that article instead of having the person click another link and wait for it to load.

There is also an old Category the Beta-Wiki crew created for pages that require deletion located here. None of those have been deleted yet.

Let me address this situation, those wolf pages are invalid we having a new list for those monsters that are currently being worked on and will have the accurate up to date information.

I'm presuming that this is the same case with the Armor section as well? I was taking a look at it and it is way outdated.
