While I'm still in gear:

I'm a big stickler for consistency in form, style, and terminology, which is an area where wikis usually fall apart quite rapidly. So a large part of my interest for whipping the wiki into shape involves defining and unifying these things across the whole of the wiki. Terminology is particularly important for any sort of documentation*, so defining a clear definition of all the terms and their usage is at the top of my list.

Form and style are particularly important to making the wiki easy to read and understand. A clearly defined style will prevent us from having articles all with their own particular organization, look, and design, and make life easier for everybody who reads the wiki.

Probably more important (and more difficult) than the above issues is the overall organization of the wiki. As I mentioned above, I spent some time cleaning up the front page this morning, as it was a bad mashup of a table of contents and a real article. It looks better, but there are still a lot of issues left with the organization on both the wiki-wide and sub-section levels. Thrashing this out shouldn't take too long, but its importance merits a fair amount of thought first.

/me is still pondering.
