Status Column

I am wondering if it would be possible to query each server to check their status and then have the wiki page display Online/Offline and possibly current player count as well? I think that querying every server each time the page is loaded would take way to long to load the page, so maybe it could be updated hourly or on some other regular time interval. Just an idea I had, its probably to difficult/impossible to implement, and if it can't be implemented, then what you proposed is better than the current system.

Server Categories

Sure.

World Version

Definitely useful, although there should be a way to display if a server deletes certain parts of the world before an update so that it regenerates with the new features.

Server Template

My understanding of this is that one would only need to update his/her server page and those changes would be automatically pushed to the list of servers.

In the past there has been talk of randomizing the order of the Servers page. Some people think that having your server at the top of the list will make your server have more players, which may be true to some extent, but this leads to people choosing names for their servers that would put them at the top of the list, and overall just causes problems. Assuming the page will now be using templates, perhaps it would be easier to randomize the order of the list?
