I am doing some work to set up my robots.txt file. Are there any robots.txt experts out there?

I am trying to figure out what is critical to include in it. Right now I have this, which I found online:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /cgi-bin
Disallow: /wp-admin
Disallow: /wp-includes
Disallow: /wp-content/plugins
Disallow: /wp-content/cache
Disallow: /wp-content/themes
Disallow: /trackback
Disallow: /feed
Disallow: */feed
Disallow: /category/*/*
Disallow: */trackback
Disallow: */*/trackback
Disallow: /*?*
Disallow: /*?
Allow: /wp-content/uploads


# Google Image
User-agent: Googlebot-Image
Disallow:
Allow: /*


# Google AdSense
User-agent: Mediapartners-Google*
Disallow:
Allow: /*


# Internet Archiver Wayback Machine
User-agent: ia_archiver
Disallow: /


# digg mirror
User-agent: duggmirror
Disallow: /

Thanks
