I'm not sure how many there are.  Not all of them exist in the "GameGuides" namespace, which is a huge part of the problem. I keep tripping over them. The other day I found "Finding Items" and renamed it "Game Guides:Finding Items" so it would be obvious.  I hadn't noticed that the other Game Guide had no space before the second "G".  That's something we'll need to standardize as part of the Cleanup on Aisle G.

For example, I ran across a section on harvesting plasma that had some very good information mingled with contradictory and confusing wording.  Since it was within an otherwise "encyclopedic" factual article, I didn't rename it.  (We might want to break that section out and move it to the "GameGuides:..." hierarchy as part of that cleanup.) I tested the techniques involved, found that one produced excellent yields every time I did it (consistently >65t per Mk2), and rewrote to explain it so that a newb should be able to get it right on the first try.

The idea isn't to just "amalgamate" them together into one huge mega-page, but to create a hierarchy of guides.  One would be a very high-level outline mostly just classifying the ideas into sub-categories, with their names as links to the successively-more-detailed articles that cover each specific item.  It might get to three or more levels of articles before it's all said and done, depending on how detailed the descriptions get. 

@8100DSTAR I have seen people write about a web "cite" (or "sight").  They tend to be the same folks who think the "v" in "voila" is silent — having mispronounced it long enough they go on to misspell it as "walla" as if it were half the name of a city in Washington.
