So, the other day I talked to Hackey5, an admin over at the Geometry Dash Wiki, and asked him for tips to improve this wiki, and he replied with the following message:

"Here’s some general tips to help guide your wiki towards a better maintained and more refined state: This is the link to the full conversation: http://geometry-dash.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:246454#4
 * Start cleaning out your block list (and Chat Ban list at Special:ChatBanList). There is no real reason to have infinite bans, unless such individuals deserve to have their names forever printed on the wiki.
 * Process your double and broken redirects, which there should be none. Here we don’t have redirects at all since we have such cohesive navigation. Which brings me to the following.
 * Use the Linksweeper script to quickly remove redlinks. Take care as you don’t want to remove intentional links, particularly those left by the deletions of redirects, which you’ll need to patch up on the pages they appear on. You can use Special:Whatlinkshere to help.
 * After working through these things, you should have a better sense of how your wiki is organised, and you can start developing your categories. Keep in mind that they are not tags like on YouTube, they are navigational components so you ought not to include every related term as a category. Here, we opted for an incredibly simple design, just a category per page, which can be reached in linear sequence from Category:Browse. You might want to do things differently, though.
 * Processing images is a massive task, and unless you intend to slowly phase out people using personal images, it’s going to be near impossible keeping a tab on renamed images and, for the most ambitious only, categorising images.
 * Do understand that our wiki here is not a direct comparison to your own. You’ve got a fan wiki, where there should be more liberties for users, meanwhile you will never really impose an artificial limit on included content. It changes a lot of things, so effectively maintenance will always be harder for you. Regardless, the first few things I mentioned should be somewhat doable. Good luck!"

So, where should we start, guys? :)
