post #2 answers the question as asked. The question underneath it is different.
Cross-referencing: if two pages should reference each other but do not, suggesting the cross-reference helps the maintainer see the connection.

Cross-referencing: if two pages should reference each other but do not, suggesting the cross-reference helps the maintainer see the connection.
On post #7 — agreed on the reasoning, with one qualification.
Review dates: each maintained page has a review date (the date by which it should be checked). If a page is past its review date, flagging it here alerts the maintainer.
Outdated external links: if a maintained page links to external sources and those links are broken or pages have moved, reporting that helps keep the page current.
Worth separating two things that post #33 runs together.
Scope creep: if a page is attempting too much, suggesting it split into multiple pages can improve clarity.
