Hacks Guide Wiki:Maintenance

A list of things to check on regularly or when something happens.

Maintenance

 * Check Special:UncategorizedPages and add categories to pages. Consider enabling HotCat in your gadget preferences to quickly edit the categories of a page.

Approve new changes
Check on Special:ApprovedRevs for changes to existing pages that are not approved.

New system versions
Current known versions:
 * 3DS:
 * Wii U:
 * Switch:

What to do when Nintendo releases a new system version:
 * 1) Edit SystemVersion: Click here to edit
 * 2) Wait for the job queue to update every page that uses System version outdated article to show the warning and categorize outdated pages (this could take a while; up to 20 jobs are run every 10 seconds)
 * 3) Go to Category:Pages that may need updating and make any necessary changes; make sure to update  in.

Site notices

 * MediaWiki:Sitenotice displays a notice to all users
 * MediaWiki:Sitenotice id is used so a new sitenotice can be displayed when users dismissed the old one (but also allows for minor changes to an existing one without re-displaying it). Increment this by 1 each time a new sitenotice is put.
 * MediaWiki:Anonnotice displays a notice to all unregistered users (this currently transcludes Sitenotice)
 * If this is replaced with a single "-" then Sitenotice is displayed instead. If this is completely empty, no notice will be displayed at all to unregistered users.
