This page is a triage board for wiki cleanup. Keep broad work here; item-specific image and video work should stay in the media review queue unless it affects a whole page group.

Priority 1 - Quick Cleanup

Short pages, almost-empty hub pages, and simple rewrites that should be fast wins.

  • VC Pistol - almost empty; identify the weapon/page purpose and either expand or merge/redirect.
  • USA - almost empty; decide whether this should be a country page, redirect, or faction-related page.
  • VC / Việt Cộng - rewrite as the VC faction page or redirect one title cleanly to the other.
  • Factions - expand into a proper faction hub for U.S. Army and VC.
  • Classes - add a short intro, class role summaries, and links to each class page.
  • Ribbons and Trophies - add explanation of how they work and clean list formatting.
  • Manufacturer - explain how manufacturer pages are used on weapon pages.
  • +1 - explain the mechanic/name or decide if it should redirect elsewhere.

Priority 2 - Core Gameplay Pages

Pages linked from Mechanics that explain how the game works. These should be written in plain gameplay terms first, then expanded with examples where useful.

Priority 3 - Larger Rewrites

Pages that need more careful writing because they cover factions, countries, war context, or community/server documentation.

Priority 4 - Media And Presentation Pass

Pages that have a base page but need images, videos, screenshots, or cleaner presentation.

  • Maps / Maps of Vietnam - map pages should get screenshots, overview images, and useful videos where possible.
  • Equipment pages such as ammunition boxes, first aid/medical kits, binoculars, gas masks, flare guns, smoke grenades, and body armor still need HLMV renders or approved media where missing.
  • Country, faction, and history pages should use clear, relevant historical images only after captions/licensing are checked.
  • DShK-M, M2 Browning, SPG-9, and M40 Recoilless Rifle - add real-life photos and relevant videos after source/licensing review.

Ongoing Queues

These are bigger cleanup buckets and should be handled in batches instead of mixed into single-page work.

  • New weapons that need a page - review generated drafts in small batches before uploading.
  • Orphaned pages - inspect a few at a time and either link them from the right hub or merge/remove stale pages.
  • Wanted pages - create only the useful wanted pages; many may be typo, template, or stat-link cleanup.
