I've been fiddling around with this and I had two ideas with it.

1. There's a method in the script that allows xparameters and the like, but not every game uses every parameter. How do I consolidate information displayed by this script into one or two pages?

2. This is important; this is a very useful script for displaying information about items and equipment. How can this script be tweaked to be accessible in Equip Item and possible shop lists?

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

You can't really tweak this script to work in the equipment menu and the weapon shop. You would end up rewriting most of it, since those scenes are really quite different. Unfortunate that the original author didn't do it. Maybe you could ask him if he has, or if the reason he didn't is because he knows of another script that does those scenes? Or maybe he did make one, I dunno, I didn't actually look.

Deleting stuff out and consolidating the remaining stuff into fewer pages is apparently already a feature of the script, though? So you're in luck there. Go into the Info Pages Window script that's required for this script, it's customizable near the top there. You can define pages of info, and then define what's on each page.

Defining what's on each page admittedly looks a little confusing. One of the pages for equipment info, for example, is the X-Parameter page. In the script settings there's a part that looks like this:

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  #   X-Parameter Abbreviations
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  XPARAM_VOCAB = [  "HIT",    # HIT rate
                    "EVA",    # EVAsion rate
                    "CRI",    # CRItical rate
                    "CEV",    # Critical EVasion rate
                    "MEV",    # Magic EVasion rate
                    "MRF",    # Magic ReFlection rate
                    "CNT",    # CouNTer attack rate
                    "HRG",    # Hp ReGeneration rate
                    "MRG",    # Mp ReGeneration rate
                    "TRG"]    # Tp ReGeneration rate
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  #   X-Parameter Full Names
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  XPARAM_VOCAB_FULL = [ "Hit",              # HIT rate
                        "Evasion",          # EVAsion rate
                        "Critical",         # CRItical rate
                        "Critical Evasion", # Critical EVasion rate
                        "Magic Evasion",    # Magic EVasion rate
                        "Magic Reflection", # Magic ReFlection rate
                        "Counter Attack",   # CouNTer attack rate
                        "HP Regeneration",  # Hp ReGeneration rate
                        "MP Regeneration",  # Mp ReGeneration rate
                        "TP Regeneration"]  # Tp ReGeneration rate

If you delete the critical evasion lines out of both of those sections, then critical evasion won't appear on the X-Parameter page any more. If you replace it with something that's on another page, you can move stats around to different pages.

I tried the trick to just delete a line from the XPARAM, but what happens is that the numerical value for that stat I deleted still appears.
