Minecraft Wiki:Style guide/Versions

All version articles should use the following layout, to allow for consistency between version articles.

Introduction
At the very top of the article, version history nav should be placed.

After the template should be an introduction with a general description. This description should contain the release date of the update, and a brief description of the update. If it is a development version, it should state which version of it is a development version.

Additions and changes
These two sections are combined in the guide due to similarity, in the actual article this is two separate sections called Additions and Changes. General changes in a version should go within the two sections as follows:
 * Additions: Any new features added in the version. This includes features added in development versions.
 * Changes: Any changes to old features from the version. This includes features changed in development versions.

If the version is a full release or has a lot of features, each section also should have the following subsections:


 * General: General features, such as options, splashes, and graphics changes.
 * Gameplay: Features relating to gameplay mechanics, such as achievements, status effects, game modes, and visual changes
 * Commands & NBT Tags: Features related to mob tags or commands
 * World Generation: Features related to world generation
 * Blocks and items: Features that are either blocks or items
 * Mobs: Features that are mobs.

If the features have not appeared in a development version yet, the feature should be contained in the separate but similar section Planned additions or Planned changes.

Fixes
Bugs fixed in this version using fixes. Bugs should also be organised into sections using the following headers:


 * Fixed in the  development versions
 * From released versions before
 * From the  development versions
 * From the previous development version
 * From the current version, hotfixed

Note that fixes supports shortcuts for common headers.

Footer
After references, place a double space, then add any applicable navigation templates, like computer versions, and then any applicable categories.

The last thing on every version page will be the interwiki language links.
