Urgh! Having the two info templates for game and engine on the same page is ugly (they are side by side with a narrow column left for some text on the left)!
I created a new template to merge the info from both into a single info box and then merged the two pages for TeenAgent and fix the links to the old Teen page (and also added a redirection to TeenAgent page).

If anybody else wants to add the pages for a single-game engine on the wiki and doesn't see the point of having two separate pages for the game and for the engine, there is now a new info template {{GameEngineDescription}} that can be used.
