Klen posted a summary a while back and I had a look through but there was a lot more and it'd be good for us to just work out yknow "oh this is fine, this is an underlying thing we can fix, this is a categorisation issue" etc :D
maintenance category thread
untold trellis
alright so:
no broken redirects 
https://rainworld.miraheze.org/wiki/Rain_World_Wiki/Flex_section this page is a dead end
https://rainworld.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Hibernation_pod&redirect=no double redirect! goes to shelter which you have to click on to go to Hibernation (the name of the page was changed iirc. that might be why, i think it was shelter before)
https://rainworld.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:AncientPages love the name of this one, ancient pages, hehe. tons of stuff in here that could be merged (like the suburban page) or needs a good revamp (any lore related pages 
) i figure kip will add these/has already included these in the trello
orphaned pages include the en and hu versions of the difficulties page, along with the explosives page and... the videos page? no clue what that is
the "Rain World Wiki" and "Mechanics" categories are uncategorised. im not sure what that means exactly? thought it makes sense to add these here
similarly, it looks like every single file uploaded onto the wiki is uncategorised. no idea if this is an issue either
Achievements, Cut Content, Noodlefly Egg, Music, LttM dialouge and the Flex Section are all uncategorised. out of all of these i think Noodlefly Egg should definitely be categorised, that's a mess up on my end. you can decide on the other ones!
templates are also uncategorised, which i dont think is an issue
quite a few unused categories and templates! though these all seem like stock ones and i dont think we really need to use them anywhere
won't touch on unused files since in most cases it looks like a new version was uploaded separately or they were removed and replaced
there are a few non-existing linked files and pages. most of these are template & talk pages. a notable one's on the white lizard page, a broken file at the bottom
that's everything 
west depot
oooh brilliant :O
tysm this is great 
flex section is weird, we don't use it but it is,,, important?
west depot
Well it came over from Fandom anyway
The homepage is divided up into three sections
it's a slightly strange system, not sure if it's necessary 
I imagine it's useful for more complex homepages
untold trellis
i see!
going to top or bottom is akin to flex - a page that redirects to the main wiki page
difference is that flex has nothing
untold trellis
and we need the empty flex page for the other two to function?
west depot
OH the flex section is the sidebar on the right :D
untold trellis
that makes sense!
and since the main page on miraheze has no sidebar, the flex section's empty
glad we figured that out
tardy perch
"Rain World Wiki" is the homepage
west depot
I remember the struggles sunset had to implement a twitter sidebar before on fandom
tardy perch
"Mechanics" is my failed attempt at making a category page when i first started editing 
west depot
maybe we can get sth like that up and running on flex in the future
tardy perch
ancient sins
tardy perch
it's a redirect i think
but it redirects to "shelter" which has since been changed to "hibernation"
untold trellis
yeah
fixing it to just redirect to hibernation sounds good!
tardy perch
i figure if people are looking up Hibernation they'll get the right page suggested anyway 
so go ahead and delete it
untold trellis
oh right
fair point, we can remove it
west depot
https://rainworld.miraheze.org/wiki/Explosives
OH RIGHT SO
Explosives is orphaned yes, I specifically did that when moving everything over to 3 separate pages
I guess the question is really: what to do with it?
tardy perch
i suppose it can be deleted 
just leave it up until i finish with the other 3 pages so i can be sure nothing of value is left on it
west depot
I did move everything over 1:1, all content on is replicated over the other 3, but for sure 
I was thinking of making it redirect here: https://rainworld.miraheze.org/wiki/Objects#Explosive_Spear
untold trellis
yeah i dont think we really need the explosives page now
that'd make sense! go for it 
tardy perch
sure 
west depot
Closest thing we have to a landing page 
you alright looking at page history for reference kip?
tardy perch
yeah thats fine
awesome
tardy perch
ive also taken note of that
im planning to combine that w/ my plans for a development page
west depot
and these two are,, yeah they seem leftover from our first translation attempt (Hoosh's haha)
tardy perch
yeah
not sure what we can do about those showing up in the orphaned section since it automatically swaps depending on your selected language , rather than being linked
west depot
def no issue, especially if we'll be doing more translations, and fixing those two, in the future :D
