Not entirely sure what you're referring to by bright, oversized boxes but if you're referring to the fix boxes then they're supposed to make instructions easier to read and in turn easier to follow. Fix boxes should only be used if there's actually a definitive way to fix something and is structured properly. You can also leave out some general information/fixes that are not applicable directly to the game as this information is redundant and would most likely be served better if it was in the Steam (for example windows xp troubleshooting) article or the relevant article if it isn't already.

Regarding splitting unresolved issues and fixed issues, don't - if there'a fixed issue you can state why this may not be applicable to some or how effective the method is at working. Unless there's an absolute definitive unresolved issue that's only when you should put it under unresolved issues as I can understand your concern of splitting issues up. We don't want to confuse the reader so if you absolutely must split them up then just make a reference to it further down with a link so it's easy for the reader just to click on and be straight into the information for the specific fix he was looking up.

You could also leave some irrelevant information out like going in-depth into alternative versions, if you see what I did for Need for Speed: Most Wanted I just simply stated there's an alternative version and a reference to information regarding that version which could be applied in the same way here. There's quite a bit this article needs to do to conform to the standards, but regarding the links at the bottom simply remove them, make references if they're applicable or fit them into the top of the page. I could have a go at the page to clean it up a little bit if you would like as I can see you're pretty dedicated to this page.
