Intro

Basically, all Wikis have IN-links and OUT-links. OUT-links are created whenever you add a [[wiki entry]] to a wiki page and are easy to determine. IN-links are whenever another wiki has one of those OUT-links to that page, and are much harder to determine.

The more networked the wikis are (i.e. more links between each other), the easier is will be to find information and related information on tags. It works the same way with the internet. A site that has no links to it in general will rarely be visited.

Lists and tag groups

For reference and potential candidates for tag inclusion.

Data

The following table represents the General category wikis that have no IN-links from any other wiki entries. It does not include *_(cosplay) wikis or wikis from tag aliases (i.e. antecedent name).

Note: The cutoff for the above table was 50 active posts

To Do

• Go through and start adding wiki links in other wikis that link to the above wikis where it makes sense (Partially accomplished, switched it to character table for now...)
• Do the same for character and copyright wikis (not artist wikis since they very rarely need IN-links)
• Investigate the "below 50 active posts" cases for all applicable categories
• Investigate wikis with only deleted posts
• Investigate wikis with no posts whatsoever
• Investigate Dead links - entries linking to nonexistent tags.(Partially done... Completed ID 30000 and above)
• Investigate Outdated links - entries linking to tags that have since been aliased. These links should be updated to point to the new tag.
• Investigate Renamed links - entries linking to tags that have been renamed, but not necessarily aliased. These links should be updated to point to the new tag. (Completed: 1 Year of Wiki Page versions)
• Investigate Outdated wikis - tags that have been aliased to something else, but that still have a wiki entry. These entries need to be migrated or merged, then deleted.

Raw data

• Found wikis: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B39jDgCtzVHuQ1h5dWh4NkhnQjg
• Wikis with links to self
• Each key name of the JSON is the tag name of the wiki (i.e. with underscores)
• The entry of each key is a list of all wikis that point to that wiki
• Notfound wikis: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B39jDgCtzVHuVFFwWW1uOU1TX00
• Wikis with no links to self
• Each key name of the JSON is the tag name of the wiki
• The entry of each key is the wiki ID

Thanks for doing this, I had been wondering about unlinked entries too. I went through starting from the bottom up and linked up some random ones. The wiki in general is highly neglected and could use a lot of gardening.

Some other things that might be worth investigating:

• Dead links - entries linking to nonexistent tags.
• Outdated links - entries linking to tags that have since been aliased. These links should be updated to point to the new tag.
• Outdated wikis - tags that have been aliased to something else, but that still have a wiki entry. These entries need to be migrated or merged, then deleted.

Thanks for that. I started from the top but have only gone through the first 20 entries since some I've been trying to thoroughly link some of the pages that I come across (plus I try to avoid burnout)...

I'll add your ideas to the original post as To Do items.

So then, that means that antecedent alias tags with wikis need to have their wikis merged with the consequent tag then deleted...? I always thought those wikis were left around for... reasons...? *SHRUGS*

I don't know if there are any good reasons to keep them around. I think most were just forgotten to be moved when a tag was aliased.

And I realized this one can be found via BigQuery. So here we go, general tags that have been aliased but that still have a wiki entry:
