Help:Patches

Pages about game updates ("patches") are differently-built up than standart articles. Patches do not require any historical background and do not need screenshots, code, special design modifications and other view changes. They are strictly standardised by conventional criteries and only differ in content.

Basic built-up
A patch info page usually consits of one header bar with links to other update lists and one or more sections, one for each version release. Under each headline, the official changelog entry is printed out without giving any links to articles. No wiki code is used, except of that which is required to create the list, is necessary. If the changelog is given in list style, the list has to be transformed into wiki style (without numeric counting of items) and seperated into sections, if that is helpful to keep an overview. If changelog is in text style, the pure text is pasted below the headline.

The pages are auto-categorized in the Game Updates -category and do not use additional page categories. They also do not have additional sections as i.e. a External links -section or a See also -section.

Example
An example source code of an updates page could be something like this:
