With over 70k articles, the GW2 wiki is very well maintained considering the size (and age) of the game it documents. While I do not know the 2 wikis you indicate, they're small (the first has 15k article but it's only been there for 5 years compared to the 11 years of the GW2 wiki) and seem to correspond to small games. It's often easier to document something that has a limited amount of content.

There isn't a good benchmark of how good a wiki is but having helped its community for now more than 6 years, I believe that it's a AAA wiki for its content and it ranks pretty high in a few categories as you can see here (unfortunately they don't list articles, only pages): https://wikiapiary.com/wiki/Special:RunQuery/Website_by_Tag?Website_by_Tag%5BTag%5D=game&wpRunQuery=true

I'm pretty sure that the community of wiki editors would welcome your comments and ideas directly on the respective pages (in fact we've build a "Leave article feedback" feature exactly for that, see the corresponding tab).
