Thank you for correcting the monster templates. I had no idea the situation is this bad. --Tjr 12:30, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Happy to be able to help! I'm making progress with the monsters, but I'm not quite finished.
In many cases, the same problems show up on a lot of pages.
The number one problem is that the "frequencies" were done by different people who used different words to describe the same numerical frequencies; for example, a frequency of "3" was described as "Rare", "Uncommon" and "Average" on different pages.
My solution to this was to modify the monster template. Now, if the monster page has "frequency=3", then the infobox will display "3 (Rare)", which is consistent with the Monster frequency page.
The only problem is that the "Frequency" fields in the infoboxes no longer have "never appears in Gehennom" or "appears in small groups", but those were redundant anyway because they appear in the attributes at the bottom.
Other problems include missing references to the source code, and a few typos and other errors.
Hopefully I'll be done soon!
