Considering the ridiculous scope of the merging process, we're divvying it up. It will go a lot like the audit, with the big complication of around 10 months of divergence between KHWiki and The Keyhole. This means that instead of just bringing things "up to speed", we'll need to compare the contents of the two wikis and merge them together where appropriate.

*A good rule of thumb, if one wiki's article hasn't had a lot of activity for a long time and its counterpart has, the counterpart will likely take precedence. (This is not absolute, so use your judgement.)

#*For example, the Keyhole has more separated "Boss" articles than KHWiki, and KHWiki's "Boss" articles have been moved to the Game namespace (or "gamespace"). Another example, KHWiki is using the Japanese names for the known Dream Eaters, while the Keyhole is using the translated names used by the Kingdom Hearts news sites (e.g., [[Wandanyan]] vs. [[wikia:kingdomhearts:Wonder Meow|Wonder Meow]]). Check your destination when comparing/adding content.

#As with Main, be careful of differences in names.
#When uploading new images, upload in .png format, using KHWiki naming conventions.
#Do not upload redundant images, and only upload new images if they are '''higher quality'''.
