I think the boss pages on the wiki should be overhauled.
Currently, most seem to start with a "Monstrous Profile" section that contains the mission briefing from Spiral HQ, then a "Strategy" section with a "Tactics" subsection. Much of this "strategy" section is given over to describing the boss fight rather than talking about strategy, and what info gets put in or outside the "tactics" subsection seems to be largely random.
Instead, I suggest the following breakdown:
- At the top of the page (under no heading), we put in a monster stat block, like the ones that currently appear on the Bosses Page
- Mission Briefing contains the text of the mail Spiral HQ sends when you enter the area
- What Dangers Wait describes the boss's behavior, minions, and the room the fight takes place in. Basically, the game mechanics of the fight. This should be kept as factual as possible.
- Strategy is an opinion section containing recommendations for how to conduct the fight. Subsections can be added on a per-boss basis if there are multiple distinct approaches or if strategies vary significantly between different phases of the fight. Specific equipment is mentioned only if a particular strategy doesn't work without it (e.g. one common strategy against Vanaduke is impossible without a Shivermist Buster).
- Gearing Up is another opinion section containing recommendations for equipment to bring, but it should start with a factual discussion of damage types, statuses, and weaknesses. Since you can't change equipment in the boss room, consideration should be given to equipment that's useful in the levels preceding the fight as well as to the boss fight itself. Equipment recommendations should be grouped based on what niche they fill (e.g. "Armors A, B, and C are all good ways to get normal and piercing defense. D provides piercing defense, but is not recommended because...")
- Drops, Notes, etc. remain at the bottom, though they may also want to be made a little more consistent between pages
Any objections or counter-suggestions? I'm willing to reorganize the existing pages (though I'm probably not qualified to add any new information to the shadow lair bosses), I just want to make sure no one's really attached to the current system first.
On a side note, that boss page you posted doesn't have any links to the actual bosses. We should change that for easier navigation.
