I go some questions for you guys!
1. What types of pages does the wiki currently need most?
2. Which does it need the least?
3. What pages need updates the most?
4. What pages need illustrations the most?

Here's my thoughts:
1. We need pages that are enjoyable to read, give players stuff they can do, are imaginative, fun/funny, and/or impressive. Stuff that inspires and makes people want to RP there and to share it. Also keep in mind a sense of history is the top thing people are looking for. I think pages that surprise or present novel (new or unique) stuff is another good answer. Things that keep stuff fresh.
2. The wiki doesn't need: firearms without art, places with insufficient detail (including star systems that are just stats, one-paragraph places) and nothing to do there ("airless rock planet with nothing of interest"). Cookie cutter pages that are extremely similar in content to other pages.
3. Locations by far. We've got over 500 in RP and very few have been updated to the new place template that has people and RP opportunities (and rumors) sections added. Also any pages on the new player's path need updating to be as clear as motivating as possible.
4. I think locations could strongly benefit from art. Also would like to see more art for some of the more rare species in SARP like Phods, Delsaurians, etc. Anything to make Star Army more visually sci-fi.
Also, as a general note: I feel like the wiki works best when it's closely connected to RP. That means adding links to the RP and actually RPing the things added to the wiki.
What are your thoughts?
