| - If you haven't noticed yet, throughout Varrock are quiet individuals who try and keep the city tidy, they are known as cleaners. Their examine info states: "Does what too many people aren't interested in doing." Well I think it's high time that the RuneScape Wiki get these cleaners. Since I've joined, I've been emulating them by tidying articles and thus clearing out categories and special pages. For instance, I went to the Special:Uncategorizedpages and put categories in all the listed articles. I've cleared out six of these types of special pages but the problem is, with constant new articles and new edits, these bare pages don't stay bare for long. Moreover, there are still literally several thousand tidying edits that remain. And so, the Varrock Cleaners.

| - If you haven't noticed yet, throughout Varrock are quiet individuals who try and keep the city tidy, they are known as cleaners. Their examine info states: "Does what too many people aren't interested in doing." Well I think it's high time that the RuneScape Wiki get these cleaners. Since I've joined, I've been emulating them by tidying articles and thus clearing out categories and special pages. For instance, I went to the Special:Uncategorizedpages and put categories in all the listed articles. I've cleared out six of these types of special pages but the problem is, with constant new articles and new edits, these bare pages don't stay bare for long. Moreover, there are still literally several thousand tidying edits that remain. And so, the Varrock Cleaners. People who join the guild would have the option to do any or all of the following: Patrol these special pages:
* Special:DoubleRedirects
* Special:Deadendpages
* Special:Lonelypages
* Special:Uncategorizedpages
* Special:Uncategorizedcategories to make sure that these categories remain empty and to clean-up the articles that do appear. Also, patrol:
* Special:Newpages since 95% of the time articles show up in those five special pages is because a new article did not have categories, links or was not linked to. Clear and patrol these categories:
*
*
*
* I've already cleared the first one so it can be done! The key difference between this and the above isn't that I've listed Categories instead of Special pages but that to clear these categories involves creating and modifying content. So if you do join the guild, depending on your preference you could choose to patrol and fix the special pages which is quick and easy or you could patrol and attempt to clear the above categories which requires some time and effort. Some other areas we would attempt to clean are:
* Special:Uncategorizedimages big task with about 1500 images
* Special:Newimages to ensure images don't end up in the above special page
*
* Special:Uncategorizedtemplates
* Special:Disambiguations Finally, this guild would also discuss ways of improving the wiki within the scope of cleaning up the place with our ultimate goal of having this be the most organized of all the Wikis. I've already got an idea for a major project for the guild but let's not put the cart before the horse. Please tell me what you think of this idea?--Diberville 03:21, 2 June 2008 (UTC) Interested RuneScape Wikians (please add your name) 1.
