I've tried to start working on that, but find myself overwhelmed by a number of lacking basics, which we should adddress immediately. These later on.
Just one thing first: some of the orphaned pages aren't really orphaned, but "just" got linked the wrong way, by using an external instead of an internal link. Remember this when cleaning up.

Clean up the intro of http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemowiki_Action_Group somewhat. Can the docmaster do that?
(PS: There is also http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Generalantilles/Sandbox/Wiki_Action_Group which comes up earlier in searches...)
Related to that, in more general terms: How do we want to handle outdated information? This garden is really overflowing with weeds... may we be generous in deleting old stuff?
Could we just use a category "Trash" to mark pages for deletion? Admins could then use that to clean up every now and then or just remove the category item from an article to "remove" from trash. This would be way easier, quicker and more flexible than using bugzilla.
And there is also a category "DELETEME"... ?!?
Let's add OS-related categories such as OS2008/Maemo5/Mer. Otherwise we will end up with a large mishmash of stuff.
Who can add new categories? What about the Categories tree with subcategories and parent categories? they should be very hand in structuring the wiki in a better way.
The results of this discussion should go to either the "Maemo Wiki Principles" subsection the the action group OR http://wiki.maemo.org/Task:Documentation_rules (which one? I'd prefer the latter)
Which brings up another needed cleanup: Instead of being part of the category "Tasks", some pages only have the prefix "Task:". I suggest that all tasks be categorized as such and that we refrain from using the Task: prefix.
BTW: if a task is completed, I suggest that the perons responsible of the task also cleans up the page to reflect the situation after the task is finished.
And on a lighter note: The use of the word "current" should be forbidden :-)
Best regards
