Conduct

This wiki is first and foremost a resource to give information on the best way to play games. Despite the fact that this wiki constantly states the "best" way to play a game, it does so via the (dubious, but inevitable) invisible authority of the gaming community at large, and simply presents this information from a neutral point of view. If there is a split, it is the responsibility of the wiki to list both setups as long as there is reason to believe that both setups are valid as to the best way to play a game.

Strategies

It is important to note that this wiki does not offer any strategies on playing games. When the wiki says "best way to play" it is simply for the setup, not any commentary on gameplay. For more info check What is "best" anyway?

Patches

Patches can be listed for games. Try to keep patches to things that are mostly Crash fixes, QoL and translation focused.

BWTP displays the following pills next to patches and the like.

Required
Recommended
Optional
Avoid

Required is to only be used if it's required for a game to be playable, such as if a game needs the patch in order to boot, or to not crash. Recommended is for patches that are faithful to the original game, and enhance the experience. Optional is for additional patches that may change the game in a manner that is less faithful but is still worth documenting. Avoid is self explanatory.

Additionally details about each patch can be given.

Translation can be used to note a translation patch.
Delocalization can be used to note a delocalization/decensorship patch.
QoL can be used to note a Quality Of Life patch.
Texture can be used to note a Texture pack.

Legality

As per conduct, this wiki is a database of the most commonly accepted opinions of the gaming community as to the best way to play a game. If it includes information of a DRM crack of a game that gives better performance; or builds of leaked source code that give the best way to play- it is an obligation of this wiki to provide that information. Being said this wiki will never link to any pirated content. The purpose of this wiki is to provide information on the best way to play a game, not make a moral or legal judgement.
