Just a quick comment please, from the WMO admin viewpoint. Although we are delighted that you are getting organised to update these unloved and stale pages, we would urge caution when you are considering deleting whole pages or significant amounts of content- although the information may be superseded and not longer valid it may be important from a historical or cultural perspective. In such cases we would suggest that, rather than deleting page or all the contents you could consider adding a header to the page with wording like "SUPERSEDED INFORMATION" or similar.
