I thought I'd give you guys a friendly heads-up that some subdomains of this site - in particular, www.zdoom.org, and remilia.zdoom.org, are not setup to 301 redirect to zdoom.org, or www.zdoom.org, whichever is supposed to be the preferred domain. This is dragging down the rank of your wiki in particular; google shows me referrals from your site in triplicates because it treats them as three separate sites. This entails duplicate content penalties, as well as breaking login cookies for anybody who happens to switch between subdomains.
The easiest way to take care of this is at the DNS level if you have access to do so. If not, then a .htaccess rule for a 301 redirect can also be setup as a Rewrite condition.

Re: zdoom.org subdomains are not setup as 301 redirects
Anything that can help knock that "other wiki" down a few pegs is okay in my book. Unfortunately it's gonna have to be Randi that takes care of this; wish I could be of any help here.
