* Check and fix problems with '''redirects''', where one page links to another. Redirects enable multiple names to work when a page is renamed, or when there are several logical names for a page, but too many redirects can be confusing. Thus, when a page is renamed, it may be better in the long run to rename all links to it; to find links to a page, use <nowiki>[[Special:WhatLinksHere]]</nowiki> (near the bottom of the sidebar).
** [[Special:BrokenRedirects]] are redirects to pages that don't exist. This can happen when a page is renamed several times (e.g. Name1-->Name2-->Name3), and an intermediate name (e.g. Name2) is deleted. The prior name (e.g. Name1) is now a ''broken redirect''.
** [[Special:DoubleRedirects]] are chains of 2 (or more) redirects (e.g. Name1-->Name2-->Name3). If both are needed, it might be better to have 2 separate redirects (e.g. Name1-->Name3 and Name2-->Name3).
* Check [[Special:WantedCategories]], [[Special:WantedPages]], and [[Special:WantedTemplates]], which are items that don't exist but are referenced with links. These may be opportunities to expand the wiki. They may also be misstyped names.
* Check [[Special:OrphanedPages]], which are pages that are not linked from other pages in the wiki. Orphans may be difficult for people to find without other navigation tools (e.g. categories).
* Check [[Special:DeadendPages]], which are pages that do not link to other pages in the wiki. Deadends may be opportunities to expand the wiki or link other content.
* Check [[Special:UncategorizedCategories]], [[Special:UncategorizedPages]], and [[Special:UncategorizedTemplates]], which may be more difficult to locate.
* Check [[Special:UnusedCategories]] and [[Special:UnusedTemplates]].
* Check [[Special:LongPages]], which might better be split into several smaller pages.
* Check [[Special:ShortPages]], which might be stubs that should be expanded or removed.
* Check [[Special:ProtectedPages]], which are pages that some users cannot edit; normally wiki pages should be editable by any user.
* Find and fix broken links to other sites (use a tool like http://deadlinkchecker.com or http://brokenlinkcheck.com).
