- Every page on the WKB is listed here.
- There is still a lot of content that needs improving.
- If you can think of anything that needs doing, no matter how small, add it to the task list below.
Sadly there's only like, three people who edit this wiki any more. Ideas:
- beat people with sticks
- forum posts - get this wiki some exposure

Scheme articles
- Minimum standard for adequate rating:
- Suitably comprehensive description, with rules and variations if applicable
- Setup infobox with scheme download
- If a scheme is largely devoid of strategy, the article need not have an entire section for it. Mentioning the lack of strategy (and covering what little strategy there is) is sufficient.
