Make that improved graphics, as we also have shadows now. And transparent 
water (dunno if that was present in the original game).

Move that to user: and we could get additions a bit faster.
I'll do that now. :)

I agree with Christian here... Most people only want to read the Wiki (at 
least that's my impression) so they don't need to edit nothing. A link would 
be better I think. ("A short guide on editing the wiki is found here." -> 
link)

?
Missing links are a problem. Especially if it involves those Christian 
mentioned. (And I know I caused most of the unlinked pages. Sorry.)
Examples for unlinked pages: user:command_line_options, user:wishlist, 
user:codingstyle.
(I have to defend myself for the latter 2 pages: They are so absolute drafts 
that I didn't want to fear any user with them. ;) )

I don't think that is what Christian ment. I think he ment that the user wants 
a link _at all_. Not a deep-link to every info on the frontpage.

That would be really cool!

We are awaiting your further criticism. ;)
