It wasn't an extremely interesting page (IMO)... It mostly described the idea behind the project and its (undoubtedly waaay out of date) status.

Might that be a little hasty to remove the EMEM page so soon?  I'm sure there are developers still working with older releases that are using emem.  I don't know what information was there or how useful it was compared to the various README's, but presumably it provided additional information beyond what was available anywhere else.

So I deleted the EMEMification page from the wiki but I'm not sure what to do with the Canary page:

http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/Canary

It looks like wmem does use canaries (under some circumstances?) so maybe it shouldn't be deleted.  But I'm not familiar enough with what wmem is doing to rewrite it either...
