The wiki is ongoing work, and the forces of chaos must be held back on an ongoing basis as when users add new pages they are rarely aquainted with how to use a wiki. Secondly, trying to get users to correctly categorize pages or wikify links every single time when they make new ones etc. is a lost cause as it is a real hassle for them.

On Wikipedia there are the content creators, and then there is the organizational work. Content creators should try to do as much of the organizational work as they can, but some always remains undone.
