Does anyone have any pages they would like to have written on the wiki or any suggestions for existing pages? I'd be happy to write some, I have nothing better to do with my life.

Being credit to team.
Get at Graham and he could do a front page call-for-suggestions or something.
The wiki has needed attention for a long time but it's labor intensive, so it's kind of been left by the wayside.

Wow, a whole lot can be suggested, I am generally throwing this out there..
A Leagues page
A post on all the TF2 Leagues, where their teams are located and website information. A nice little rundown
Extend map section to cover newer maps that aren't there yet (gullywash, mainline, uhmm other stuff)
I suppose we could do a team specific pages if the teams themselves issue the content, or supply a template page for the information for a team for people to fill out for a look/feel thing..
We could work with Cinq to get a good information page for tf2.pug.na and tf2.pug like the old tf2.gather.us use to have.
Another page on tf2lobby.com
I could drop some stuff on how to setup mIRC and so forth that I have lying around
Page on SOAP TF2DM / MatchMod / Match Recorder and other plugins useful to teams in Comp
Page on P-REC and other client things useful for comp players
A page on the CommFt servers (I will do this as soon as I make heads or tails out of a wiki)
A page describing the huge walls of text I write..
A page dedicated to how every third post in a forum thread is "Wait for Sigma's answer"

How about a page dedicated to Sigma? :tongue:
We need to add haikus for every map wiki page

Not sure if this is wiki material. But a calendar showing the dates/times of league games would be cool. Especially if you could configure it match the users timezone, and provide the link to watch the sourcetv.

I'm not a Wiki guru, but I'd like to offer a response to you, if it's what you are looking for in assistance. I've looked at Badlands (http://wiki.commforums.com/doku.php?id=tf2:playing_competitively:maps:badland s)as an example and tried to just add to what is there, rather than full rework.
I hope this is what you were looking for or at least some idea to improve.
Template for Maps --
Map Name
Map Biography
- type
- author
- current version if applicable
- popularity scale (1-5) 5 = highest
(new feature) Thumbnail pictures of the map running horizontal and can view in larger slideshow
Description (CP/CTF/other):
Individual Map pictures with terminology, technical description of each point (e.g., cap rate, access methods, general/typical tactics of either team).
Class based descriptions, like their jobs as typically done, basic tactics
- Medic
- Sollys
- Demo
- Scouts
Resource of Strategies
- youtube vids
- individual writeups
- links to threads or consolidation of threads
- atypical strategies
I concur with Hawkeye's suggestions too.
