* '''Title''': the label on the About Windows dialog box (<code>winver.exe</code>), or on the desktop watermark. Build tag is preferred.
All parameters, vertical format:
* '''Imagecaption''': image description
* '''Status''':
** '''Released''': means officially made public, whether open to anyone or only to a limited number of testers. Therefore, [[Windows Neptune/5.5.5111.1|Windows Neptune build 5111]], a developer release, falls under this status, even if it was not intended for the general public. Other examples are [[PDC 2003]] [[Windows Longhorn/6.0.4051.idx02.031001-1340|Windows Longhorn build 4051]] and [[PDC 2005]] [[Windows Vista/6.0.5219.winmain idx02.050830-2010|Windows Vista build 5219]]
** '''Leaked''': means the opposite; [[Windows Longhorn/6.0.3683.Lab06 N.020923-1821|Windows Longhorn build 3683]] is an example.
** '''Unavailable''': neither released nor leaked.
* '''Kernel''': First two numbers on About Windows, e.g. 10.0 for [[Windows 10]]
* '''Architecture''':
** x86
** x64
* '''SKU''':
** Workstation
** Home Edition
** Professional
** Business
** Personal
** Server: specify the specific Server variant
* '''Compiled''': Compile date, format DD MMMM YYYY, e.g. {{CURRENTDAY}} {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}. Usually found in build tag or the date system files were created.
* '''BIOS date''': usually the same as the compile date, except for builds compiled in evaluation mode (e.g. Windows Longhorn build 4051). If same as compile date, put compile date, using format above. If not, put '''N/A'''.
* '''Timebomb''': number of days from install before build can no longer be used (meaning user can no longer login in).  If none, use "None".
* '''Key''': Product key. If none required, use "None".
* '''BetaWiki''' and '''TCB''': If available, use "Available" as caption. If none, use "Not available".
