Maintenance
- Flagging pages that need work
- If a page that needs some work, but you do not have the time or knowledge to do it yourself, use either
{{update}}or{{cleanup}}template. - Give as much information as you can when you flag the page, so the person working on it knows what they should be doing.
- Broken Redirects
- If a page redirects to a page that was deleted or moved, the redirect will be broken. Find a more appropriate place for the page to redirect to or alternatively mark it for
{{deletion}}if there is no relevant page for the redirect. - Check whether any other pages link to the deleted/moved page at the same time. To do this click on What links here in the toolbox section of the left sidebar.
- Double Redirects
- These are pages which redirect to one page, which then redirects to another. Edit the redirect for the first page to ensure it points to the eventual destination.

{{move}}template.
- Pages with broken file links

- Candidates for merging
- This is where two (or more) pages contain similar information, and they have been flagged for merging together.

Once you are finished, don't forget to remove the Merge template and redirect all pages to your finished page.

- Stubs

- These are pages which are flagged as presently being worked on by someone. If the subject is something you know about. perhaps you can work together on it. Remember to remove the Work in Progress template when the page is finished.
- Wanted Pages (building new pages)

- Wanted Templates (building new templates)
- These are templates which have been linked to from somewhere in the UniWiki, but do not currently exist. If the template would be useful for this and other pages, then build a new template.
- Non-neutral articles
