- Edit the part of [[Template:current/version]] before the noinclude tag to reflect the appropriate version
 
- Edit the part of [[Template:current/lastupdate]] before the noinclude to show the release date for that version
 
 
 
That will update the version info for every page on the wiki that uses these templates (including the main page)

Welcome to the Dwarf Fortress Wiki! This is a collection of user-submitted guides, information and advice for the Roguelike game [http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/ "Dwarf Fortress"]. Dwarf Fortress is a Mac and Windows game (though it can be played on other systems using Wine), developed by [http://www.bay12games.com/ Bay 12 Games] featuring two modes of play, a distinct, randomly-generated world (complete with terrain, wildlife and legends), gruesome combat mechanics and vicious schools of [[carp]].
