HOW TO HELP
If you are a player pick any of the builds on the to-do list and help us write! Ideally focus on high-priority pages, but if you have experience with any of the strategies feel free to dive in.
If you're not sure if you're good enough to help, tacking on examples of FPVODs/VODs or other resources like strat forum threads is very helpful. Feel free to post your additions here or add it straight to Liquipedia.
If you have any experience with Liquipedia, please help us reorganize! A lot of the older pages are messy (build orders all over the place, etc). Many of us don't have any Liquipedia experience, so any formatting will go a long way.

Hey all, as some of us may have noticed, a lot of the pages on Liquipedia are out of date. I know we already have a Project: Strat Update thread but it hasn't seen much activity lately. It would be nice (for new and old players) if we could update some of the old pages and create some new ones for more modern strategies
I think what we should focus on is:
1. Archiving or deleting old pages. Marking cheese and niche builds as such. Marking pages for update/cleanup.
2. Reworking the matchup pages to outline the general flow of the matchup and link to builds, rather than trying to have an all-encompassing matchup guide
3. Revising and creating pages for standard play and easy-to-execute cheese
ARCHIVING/DELETING/MARKING PAGES
Many of the older builds are dated and have more modern variants. Most pages could use some rewriting/updating. Some are just pointless pages
Example pages:
Archive (replace with modern builds): Iloveoov Build Double Armory (vs. Protoss)
Delete: Shallow Two(vs. Protoss)
Rewrite: 1 Fact FE (vs. Terran)
Mark as cheese: Sparks Terran
Mark as niche: 1 Factory Double Expand (vs. Protoss)
REWORKING MATCHUP PAGES
It may be helpful to create a template for matchup pages
Some of the pages are okay, but most are not very good. Most new players go to these pages first so updating them would be very helpful.
Example pages:
Good page (could be updated): PVTBuilds
Bad page: Terran vs. Terran Guide
Linking to Day[9]'s video guides would be very helpful as well.
REVISING/CREATING NEW BUILD ORDERS
It may be helpful to create a template for build order pages
Example pages:
Revise/rewrite: 1 Fact FE (vs. Terran)
Clean up: %2B1 5 Rax
New page: 3 rax han bang https://www.teamliquid.net/forum/bw-strategy/89286-the-art-of-tvz-han-bang-1-vessel-3-tank-timing
I've gone ahead and created a list of relatively standard builds and some typical/strong cheese builds. Relatively standard play is marked with two asterisks (**) and relatively strong, easy-to-execute cheeses are marked with one asterisk (*). Let me know if I'm missing anything, or if any builds seem questionable. I'm fairly certain for the Terran matchups, not as certain for the other matchups. Some of these pages already exist, but many of them are outdated (some more than others). Most of them could use a bit of clean up or updating.
