How should we deal with minor additions within a page or paragraph? For example, different tile uses in the [[Tileset]] page? Adding that banner isn't a practical solution obviously. For now I added a superscript "new in 0.42", and I suppose I can add the new professions on the [[graphic set]] page table in a new category. I'm almost inclined to not mention it at all. the hauling changes were added in 34.07 or something IIRC, and I never saw much differentiation, if any at all. Especially not on the tileset page. | How should we deal with minor additions within a page or paragraph? For example, different tile uses in the [[Tileset]] page?

:::Sorry for the late responses everyone... Thanks Oluap for the comments, I really appreciate it. And Loci, I was under the impression that the template was meant to be a short-term notice, because their purpose seemed very similar to Wikipedia's [[wikipedia:Template:Current|current templates]]. I didn't know they were used as markers for major content changes. I initially assumed people just forgot to remove them... that's why I made sure to discuss about it before doing anything. Also, I thought a namespace change only occurs when a major release breaks save compatibility, so I'm not sure why anyone would create a new namespace for DF 0.40.24. If a wiki veteran could clarify to me what exactly qualifies for a release to make a new namespace, that would be helpful. Aside from that, I forgot to mention [[DF:CP#T|Rule T]]; I'm unsure if the 0.42 disclaimer breaks this rule, due to the statement: "Specific references to minor versions in the same namespace are acceptable". Does 0.42.01, which introduced major features, include in "Specific references to minor versions"? See also statements in {{tl|Timelessness Notice}} and {{tl|Version}}. – [[User:Doorkeeper|Doorkeeper]] 10:04, 10 February 2018 (UTC) | :::Sorry for the late responses everyone...
