Rename Wiktionary:About Swahili to Wiktionary:Swahili entry guidelines (in line with Wiktionary:English entry guidelines) and similarly for all other pages in cat:Wiktionary language considerations.

1. Wiktionary talk:English entry guidelines § RFM discussion: November 2015–August 2018
2. Wiktionary:Requests for moves, mergers and splits § Wiktionary:English entry guidelines vs "About (language)" in every other language

1. I realized there are a bunch of language consideration pages that are not in the category, so I wrote a separate script to categorize these before proceeding.

    Done

2. I have written and manually tested a Python script which attempts to update redirects and links, and pauses for manual intervention when necessary. Language consideration pages I've had to skip because they are protected:
   1. Wiktionary:About Arabic
   2. Wiktionary:About Chinese
   3. Wiktionary:About Hebrew
3. Places where links need to be updated for all languages at once:
   • Module:category tree/poscatboiler/data/languages (e.g. cat:Swahili language).
   • Template:reconstructed/sub (e.g. Reconstruction:Albanian/vëharë).
   • Template:normalized (e.g. Flus).
4. Other cleanup:
   • Wiktionary:About Mycenaean Greek/Bibliography should be moved to Wiktionary:Mycenaean Greek entry guidelines/Bibliography (and have backlinks updated).
   • My script did not update backlinks to talk pages (either of the language consideration page or its subpages). I want to check for these.
   • Wiktionary:Entry layout and Wiktionary:Criteria for inclusion need to have their links to Wiktionary:About sign languages updated (but they are protected).

Implement requests for moves, mergers, and splits where consensus has been established to do so.

Category:Body should be renamed Category:Human body and made a subcategory of Category:Human rather than Category:All topics.
