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".
  • It is fine to add links to other parts of the wiki (for example one to Windows 2000 as can be seen in the sample article).
