Note that my contributions mostly involved repetitive work done on the character pages to make them work with the cheat sheet templates and only a small fraction of those was actually me adding useful things, so I don't think I should receive the same payment as sword, aoshima or nav who try their best to keep those inventories and statuses up to date for all players.

Don't you dare to say those templates are not useful.

Even ignoring the work on templates (which I agree with Aoshima that we shouldn't), you made more than 100 edits. 159, specifically, if you discount every single edit in the "characters" category, which I dumped all that template stuff into, and which probably had enough non-template edits to bump it up to 200.

Spoilers are not needed in my opinion. Basically write what happened. A summary. If you mean for Mission Synopsis page, then maybe try to cram it into one or two short paragraphs. On actual mission page it can be more detailed, but not excessively so.
Hmm... looking at the summaries as well, they seem pretty detailed already.  I blame Radio Controlled.  Wrangling me into this wiki stuff (Which I wouldn't mind doing as I read through the entire archive, don't think I don't enjoy this).

So what else might be useful?  Maybe categorizing those random tidbits that PW gives us time to time?  Like... a list of Xenos encountered/mentioned and any info on them.  Or even stuff like when Jim was looking into animal-like Synthflesh bodies, just making pages for that and listing it out.  What do you think?  I would have to go back to repopulate it based on the stuff from before where I currently am in reading, but I could start cataloguing going forward.

List of epic fail [1] rolls?  List of all injuries sustained?  Suggestions are appreciated.

There's finding things for the page of mysteries or the artifact data page. Those always need new data.
Or listening at the ER talks and looking for something useful.

You might want to check that the page you're thinking of adding doesn't already exist; we've got a list of aliens here, though that page is perhaps not the best place for them... :P

Since you're reading through the entire game already, could you keep an eye out for any information that isn't already on pages like the Artifact data, Nyars boxes, Auxiliary tools, and NPC pages?

Of course I would check first.  That page does have some of what I was thinking of.  Just little things that show up either in missions, or VR sims, etc.  I just got to Nyars, so I get all the joy of those things. :P

I'll see what I can do, but I'll run it by here before I make any crazy edits.  Otherwise I'll just keep a log of stuff locally.

Are we tracking stim usage for individual missions only or for the entire time a character has been alive after the system changed?
Asking because of this:

You are inside the ARM Archives. The ARM logo glows gently above the front desk, and doors open onto a number of brightly-lit laboratories and computer rooms.

Somebody has spraypainted Egan_BW iz watchin onto a wall.

I thought stim usage was tracked because of potential addiction chance and temporary malus after the bonus and such, and thus is reset after the mission? If not, feel free to change that back.

I think it much like amp counter; every use is more opportunity for bad things. I'll restore it if Paris haven't done so yet.

Don't just roll back the edit, there was other stuff in there as well. I'll ask pw, so we'll know for sure.
