I just poked at your site on those pages with Web Inspector.
 
:1. The community messages heading is like that because Wikia's CSS inserts a <code>padding-top:16px</code>. You'll want to disable that.
 
<source lang="css">#WikiaRail .module.CommunityCornerModule h2:first-child {
 
padding-top:0;
 
}</source>
 
You are sort of vague on which white-space you don't like, did you mean the you want the text to get closer to the edges? Make the list not indent as far? You can do that as well.
 
:2. The large spaces between the words in the headings on articles are because someone has added <code>text-align:justify</code> to the <code>body</code> tag of the site. You should remove that. If you want to 'justify' the text in articles, you should apply that style to <code>.WikiaArticle</code>, not <code>body</code>.
 
:3. I'm not clear on what the problem is with that page. Can you clarify?

:::UA, I think you'll need to be more clear on whether these spaces are spaces that normally appear on Wikia by default that you just don't like and would like to customise, or whether these spaces are spaces that you don't normally see and shouldn't see. That would help us approach this problem. :) [[User:The 888th Avatar|<span style="color:#4169E1;" title="wjxhuang">'''The&nbsp;888th&nbsp;Avatar'''</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:The 888th Avatar|<span style="font-size:12px; color:#888;" title="Contact me">(talk)</span>]] 13:02, August 6, 2012 (UTC)

::888, I want it to look normal, like on Avatar wiki. I have never seen those kind of spaces of any wiki. This is the only wiki I see them and would like to remove them and replace with normal-small spaces. {{SUBST:User:Unnamed Airbender/Signature}} 14:44, August 6, 2012 (UTC)

Delete that section, publish it, press Ctrl+R on your keyboard to refresh the cache and try opening your second link again, the gaps in the titles should go away. Actually, I get the feeling you are complaining about the wide spaces between words in all three cases despite not actually saying that.

I'm an admin on Half-Life wiki, after a few days on being on the wiki, I noticed that many pages have huge spaces.

Example:

Update: It was a bug in firefox, I'm using chrome now and it's fine. Though the articles still have big spaces (example above). —This unsigned comment is by Unnamed Airbender (wallcontribs) 21:48, August 6, 2012. Please sign your comments by adding "~~~~" in the source editor.

That's caused by the
