Living World changes
|
|
The scope of this Wiki Project is to track down to the minutiae the changes that come with each Living World Release, and to ensure that they are documented on the wiki.
|
Contributors
Feel free to add yourself to the list.
Process
The idea is to produce a detailed "to-do" list for each release that contains every page that will need creating or updating. The to-do list for each release will have a subpage of this one, and those subpages will be transcluded below in reverse-chronological order (inactive releases will be hidden using tables to limit page length).
There is no need for a set format for each list; as long as it is logically structured there should be no problems. An example can be found at /Festival of the Four Winds. Any more general tasks, such as "Go to Postern Ward and check for new dialogue" can also be listed if necessary.
Tasks
- Determine how to communicate a section of content is related to the LW and if it is available or not (see proposal for resolution).
- Determine the process for "to-do" above. The more that this could be automated the better.
- Be sure to check each What Links Here page to ensure all related pages are also updated.
GuildWars 2 Heart of Thorns [edit]
Overview
- Go through patch notes and add anything that appears in them to this list.
- Play through the content and add any new/updated content that was not explicitly covered in the patch notes.
- Note that by no means should this list be considered complete. Like everything on the wiki, it is compiled entirely by players and is likely to contain errors and omissions. If you notice one be bold and amend it.
New content
For new content:
- A red cross 0
{{no|red}} denotes that either no page has been created, or that a page has been created but contains minimal information.
- A yellow tick 1
{{yes|yellow}} indicates that a page has been created and some information has been added, although the page may still be lacking information, lacking images, or otherwise failing to conform to page formatting guidelines.
- A green tick 1
{{yes}} indicates that a page is "complete" in every sense, and conforms (when possible) to page formatting guidelines of the appropriate type.
Mechanics
Updated content
For content that is not newly-added to the game, but has been altered with the game update:
- A red cross 0
{{no|red}} indicates that either none, or only some of the changes have been reflected on the subject's page.
- A yellow tick 1
{{yes|yellow}} indicates that all changes have been reflected on the page.
- A green tick 1
{{yes}} indicates that all changes have been reflected on the page, that page is "complete" in every sense, and that it conforms (when possible/sensible) to page formatting guidelines of the appropriate type.
