Please update the Wiki globally: resolve stubs (expanding or moving underdeveloped pages), add comments in the comment sections, create pages and links that you think are currently still missing. Special pages that might be useful for this purpose are the [[Special:Random|Random page]] (pull up a random page and check if the page needs updating, has bullet points that could be new links and/or are links to pages that have not yet been created and/or if you have any comments on the content of the page that could be discussed), [[Special:DeadendPages|Dead-end pages]] (pages that do not link to any other page; could you add further links?), [[Special:FewestRevisions|Pages with the fewest revisions]] (could you add a few more?) and [[Special:LonelyPages|Orphaned pages]] (pages that are not linked; currently there are no such pages, but when people create new pages there might be some). Short pages might need expansion. You can find them easily through the page [[Special:ShortPages|Short pages]]. If there are very long pages, it might also be useful to split these into multiple pages, so that there will be more cross-links in the Wiki. You can easily find the longest pages by clicking on the special page [[Special:LongPages|Long pages]]. If you have done all this and haven't found anything to work on, please check if any of the other [[Special:SpecialPages|Special pages]] can give you any new ideas.
