Brilliant question. I love it! Mine would be:

Tenten. More useless than Sakura and Hinata. They gave her a gigantic bone putting in the Treasured Tools in the 4th SWW.
 * A LOT less flashbacks. I hated the later anime episodes reusing the same old flashback sequences over and over again. How many times have we seen clips of lonely Naruto walk through the streets by himself as a kid?
 * Get rid of the pointless and contradicting filler episodes/ arcs. I'd prefer fillers to expand on our characters and show something new. By the time of the Shinobi World War I stopped watching the fillers because I just wanted to get to the actual manga adapted episodes.
 * Go in more detail about the Akatsuki organization earlier and the different tailed beasts. It was a shame we really only got to see 2 or 3 tailed beast hunts. I also agree with others on what they have said about the Akatsuki and how they were all really unique and different. Should of given all of them better backstories.
 * Give the other Konoha clans a bigger role other than just the Uchiha and Hyuga. Konoha is known for a bunch of different, well know clans so how come we barely see them? The Konoha 11 that were in clans didn't show their clan techniques too much other than the few they focused on. Where is Kiba, Shino, Ino, and Chouji? We see a bit more of the Yamanaka and Akimichi clan techniques mainly because of their fathers but not until later in the anime. Kiba gets snuffed after the chunnin exams, while we learn a bit more about the Aburame clan through his clansman, Torune. Also in the War Period arc we hear that the Shimura clan was one of the first clans to join Konoha.... Danzo's clan.
 * Give Sakura and Hinata backbones. I HATED both of their characters. Once Sakura became sort of a badass late in the war I liked her a bit but Hinata was HORRIBLE!! Sakura telling Naruto to bring Sasuke back because she loves him is so stupid and weak. Let them be more than hopelessly in love.
 * Root. We barely know anything about Danzo and root. What sort of things did he do in the shadows? How come the Hokage didn't act more against him when he knew this was an underground force loyal only to Danzo?
 * This is a personal one of mine but I would of loved to see more backstory on the founding of Konoha with Hashi and Mandara.
 * Make Oro more prominent. This may be because he was the first "major" villain in the series but I felt his story was wasted a bit.
 * Have those ninja that knew a crap ton of different jutsu actually show it. I get that each ninja has a specialty and jutsu they are known for but Kakashi/ Oro/ Tobi/ Naruto later on all had access to way more jutsu than their usual.

As I go back and read more of the comment above and following comments I'll probably think of more.
