Hi welcome to the Wiki, I have answered (I hope) part of your query on user pages on Talk:Makanyane, I hope I didn't explain that too badly. You are clearly more experienced with Wiki protocol than some of the other users might be. However it is not actually wrong for them to be making articles relating to their forum (rather than wiki) persona. The wiki is about the forums and users as well as just being about the TW games and modding. The forum names are linked to in many contexts, eg 'author of' 'mod team member' etc.. and having a page at that link which directs the reader the forum profile is actually a useful feature. This method is used for forum users that are not wiki users as well, the pages should ideally contain more information than just a link to profile, but that might be some time in coming!

As an example Kalos is actually linked to from Broken Crescent and Polemarchia: Total War as he is a team member for both of those, so his page is properly an article about him as a modder, the fact that he is a wiki user as well is not relevant to that. (Though people actually making / redirecting user pages too would be good!)
