Patch Notes lists UniWiki's patch note articles. Everyone is welcome to contribute! UniWiki's patch notes are sourced from EVE Online's Patch Note blog posts, then processed on the UniWiki using the #Workflow.

The purpose of UniWiki's patch notes is:

  • to track how up-to-date the UniWiki is in reference to EVE Online's patch notes
  • to coordinate and organize UniWiki editors
  • to serve as a reference point for which knowledge is irrelevant in the eyes of the UniWiki

Workflow

UniWiki patch notes lifecycle and workflow

UniWiki's patch notes are sourced from EVE Online's Patch Note blog posts, then converted using EVE Online Patch Transformer into MediaWiki format. Before pasting the transformed MediaWiki formatted patch notes, patch notes need to be formatted and the number of {{PatchNoteStatus}} reduce. Each patch note is prefixed by a {{PatchNoteStatus}} state, but some patch notes are connected and don't each need a separate status.

Transform

  1. Compare the EVE Online's Patch Note blog posts with the contents of UniWiki patch note articles. If they are up-to-date, you are done.
  2. Copy EVE Online patch note blog post HTML as per EVE Online Patch Transformer instructions.
  3. Follow EVE Online Patch Transformer instructions to transform HTML to MediaWiki format.
  4. Copy transformed patch note from EVE Online Patch Transformer. Update an UniWiki patch notes article or create a new article as per Editing Guide instructions.

Clean-up

  1. Analyze the UniWiki patch note article formatting and the quantity of {{PatchNoteStatus}}.
  2. Format the UniWiki patch note article according to the Editing Guide.
  3. Remove {{PatchNoteStatus}} that aren't useful or are superfluous.

Integrate

  1. If {{PatchNoteStatus}} is in Question.png To Be Determined   - state, read the template's documentation.
  2. Read the template's documentation about which patch notes are irrelevant.
  3. To change the {{PatchNoteStatus}} state, read the template's documentation.
  4. XXX that's the meat of the process, the least exaplined step and what should be most supported.
  5. To change the {{PatchNoteStatus}} state, read the template's documentation.
  6. Self-explanatory, this step instructs you to process the next {{PatchNoteStatus}}.
  7. If {{PatchNoteStatus}} is in Small Info.png To Do   - state, read the template's documentation.
  8. To change the {{PatchNoteStatus}} state, read the template's documentation.
