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.

Recommending

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

Required
Recommended
Optional
Avoid

For Required this 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 Translation can be used to note a patch that either is a full game translation, or a delocalization of a translated game.
