=== | === Emulation Information === | ||
This area is generally composed of {{tl|Problems}} templates regarding behaviors or information that aren't necessarily emulation issues (e.g. GameCube titles that have native widescreen support, details of Wii titles that accept different input methods, titles with shader compilation stuttering, etc). Information present on this area shouldn't be taken in consideration when assigning a compatibility rating of a given title and this section is absent from the page if there's no suitable entries for that game. | |||
=== Problems === | === Problems === | ||
The problems area is a list of problems that affect the current Git version. If a problem is fixed in the current Git version but is still in the current Release version, it should be moved to the bottom and the title of the problem crossed out with the {{tl|s}} template (<nowiki>=== {{s}}like this{{/s}} ===</nowiki>), with a note in the problem on when and how it was fixed if that info is known. Once a Release occurs all existing fixed problems are purged, so it is vital to fill out when and why a problem was fixed so it can be cleared later. Each problem is listed on its own without grouping, to make it easier to deal with. Problems are generally ordered with the most severe ones first, such as crashing or hanging bugs, then going to down to the least severe. Fixed problems are at the bottom. | The problems area is a list of problems that affect the current Git version.

Anytime a revision is mentioned, it should use the {{tl|revision}} template. It would appear like this in the editor: <nowiki>{{revision|3.5-500}}</nowiki>. | Anytime a revision is mentioned, it should use the {{tl|revision}} template.

=== Enhancements === | |||
The enhancements area is generally absent of most game pages, but if you have links to HD texture packs or Gecko/AR codes that overcome emulation issues, make titles run at higher frame rates or allow using wider Aspect Ratios, you can add them in that section. If the game article doesn't have that section yet, feel free to create it, right after Problems section. Please note that any AR/Gecko code that doesn't fit in any of those categories are '''not allowed''' and '''should not''' be included in this wiki. | |||
