Re: Redirects
Yeah, I'm on the vim-l list, though I haven't been paying much attention to the messages so far.
I've only fixed the redirect pages that were easy to find and easy to fix. There are a few that I couldn't readily find the actual page the redirects should point to, so I left them alone.
About having redirects categorized, I really think they shouldn't be part of the VimTip category. Maybe a separate category for redirect pages? I wonder if there's a way to get a list of redirect pages without having to have them categorized.
So far I haven't been doing much except for the things that I can find that are "obvious". I figure once there's an established convention for deleting/merging tips, and for editing comments into the actual tip, etc, I'll try to do more.

Code formatting
You just updated VimTip346 - replacing the one space indents (which I tediously inserted) with the pre tag. I just followed one of the Vim_Tips_Wiki:Golden_Rules:
- Indent code sections with one space. This will make code look like <preformatted> text.
I prefer to use the pre tag, but chose to follow this rule. Maybe update rule?

Thanks for pointing that out. I am embracing the "be bold" wiki policy, and am adopting the attitude that I know what I'm doing ... but in fact I've only been doing serious wiki stuff for a month, and I don't really know what's going on!
I took an interest in the script you edited because I've been thinking I need something like that to insert wiki tags around text. I started by noticing that the 'if' statements had lost their indenting ... then I wondered whether pre was better than space. I just posted my conclusion to the vim-l mailing list that in fact space has some big drawbacks - see the vim-l archive.
I will update the Golden Rules you mentioned.
BTW after changing the formatting of the tip, I tried to use it - doesn't work! I'm going to grapple with that shortly.
