Microsoft KB Archive: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 19:46, 15 July 2020

This is a proposed new feature - an archive of all Microsoft KB articles.

For now, place them as a subpage of this page - so for KB article KB1234567, it should be at Microsoft_KB_Archive/1234567, or 1234567. For a real example, see /216417. Do NOT include the KB in the link.

This idea is still pending approval from the admins, do NOT create any pages till then.

Guidelines

Maintain the Microsoft KB structure as much as possible. See /216417 for an example. Headings should be in H2 form (that is, == title == ).
Do not blindly copy-paste to the wiki - make sure that the formatting is correct.
Standard wiki rules with attribution apply - which means that you must attribute the source if you got it from, say, web.archive. Include the link in "Sources".
