The Wiki is so messy I wanna do a new.  +1 But it will be very hard to do so. You have to delete ALL the articles about OESC (Artists in OESC, Countries in OESC  ) See I don't even know what OESC is. Why shouldn't it be on SCW? There are loads of pages about contests on the Wiki which I don't know if they really exist, where they exist and how they work. I doubt that the current Wiki can be saved. Even the categories are messy as people have categorized articles wrongly. The Wiki needs to be monitored such as having a look at Recent Changes and New Pages. I don't think the vandalism is very high on SCW so the most important thing is to see if new pages are relevant for a new page, contains correct info, are structured properly, and categorized as they should be. In case of a new Wiki, information from the old wiki can be copied over. I think this would be easier than cleaning up the current one. I would monitor the new wiki daily so the same thing won't happen again and also add administrators from the start. It also need a main page, similar to Wikipedia, where new contributors can get help on how to edit. Still I have made DimitrisLoveIvi and HvdstrCBfr administrators on the current SCW for the time being. |

All the articles should really be deleted because the contest has its own wiki  |

It's good solution but it's too tiring to start creating pages for ALL the 500+ songs. I may start deleting some useless articles (like Algeria in Own Eurovision Song Contest etc.) |

BTW some people add useless categories. I saw in a page category: Participant, Singer, Song, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6  |
