Microsoft KB Archive

This is a new part of the wiki - an archive of all Microsoft KB articles (currently with >210000 articles). And perhaps the only archive where you can help make it better and more complete!

For now, place them as a subpage of this page - so for KB article KB123456, it should be at Microsoft_KB_Archive/123456, or 123456. Do NOT include the KB in the link.

See A guide to mass-adding files for a guide on how this was done. This could also be adapted for other situations as well.

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". This is not required if you imported it from HTML sources like the MSDN Archives.
  • 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).
