Below are some examples of categories, then the pages and trailing-offs that could be made from them. We already have a lot of these pages, but not all of them are linked or set this way.
PHP Code:
Graal Online - General Definitions
Users - Staff -- Global Staff Divisions - Players
Worlds - Gold -- Graal Kingdoms --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- Zone --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
- Classic -- Atlantis --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- Classic --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- Delteria --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- Era --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- N-Pulse --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- Valikorlia --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- Zodiac --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
- Hosted -- Aeon --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- GraalX --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
-- Relic --- Staff --- Server Specific Definitions / Commands --- Things to do / Jobs / etc --- Historic Events
- Under Construction
- Previous Worlds
Guilds
Development - Scripting -- Definitions -- Tutorials
- Tiling -- Definitions -- Tutorials
- Graphics -- Definitions -- Tutorials
Forums - Staff - Definitions
There are also a lot more wiki features that aren't being used that could be. For example, you could use "infobox" for information such as Guild Tag, Guild Full Name, Established Time, Member Count, Guild Status -- Allies, Enemies, Preferred Worlds, etc.
To be honest, if it looked better visually and it was more organised, I think it would be used much more. I'm not even sure if it's linked on the website or not? That could also increase people using it.

How patronizing.
