WotLK compatibility question
I'm assuming 
means that the AddOn still needs to have its .toc updated (## Interface: 30000)? Should we use a 
with a link to any that are pre-modified to work with the beta unchanged? --

- AddOns using that icon may or may not need a toc update. I know the link to Gossipmonger, for instance, is to a WotLK-beta-specific version that actually won't work on Live. (I know because I wrote it.) In any case, it would probably be a good idea to use that icon for those that were updated for the beta and work decently-enough. -- Tuhljin (talk) 19:44, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- The icon simply means it's compatible, not that the author has updated the TOC. For your own addons it's up to you how you wish to handle it, I personally always release with the TOC number I tested the addon on. This means I have a number of 30000 releases out there currently, even though they work on live as well. If you're thinking about changing TOC numbers on addons that aren't your own, just stop right there. TeжubԎ Ҩ Ѡ 21:11, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- Okay, I may make a smaller special icon based on for AddOns that have been specifically updated by their authors to be compaible or better with the expansion. It would be nice to know which AddOns have been specifically developed and tested with WotLK in mind. --

is appropriate, but a single error or two at startup that otherwise have no impact on anything = "99.98% compatible" which screams to me. -- Niightblade (talk)

Recommended legend for colored face icons (originally for rep)
- Recommended legend:
– Not compatible with beta at all and completely broken; breaks other WotLK functionality; doesn't work and gives multiple errors.
– Slightly compatible with beta and only has some minor functionality working, but not worth using; may break other WotLK functionality; partially working and gives errors.
– Might work in some cases with beta; gives at least one error.
- – Might be compatible with beta, but doesn't work well or works partially, but not usefully; doesn't doesn't give errors.
– Mostly-compatible with beta, but might be missing some functionality or not fully tested; doesn't give errors.
– Compatible with beta with only some minor functionality missing; doesn't give errors.
- – Compatible with beta with near full functionality and data with WotLK in mind; doesn't give errors.
– Compatible with beta with full functionality and possibly optimized for WotLK; doesn't give errors.
- Simple subset legend:
- – Not compatible with beta and moslty or completely broken; possibly breaks other WotLK functionality; gives one or more errors.
- – Might be compatible with beta, but doesn't work well or works partially; doesn't give errors or one error with no obvious problems.
- – Compatible with beta with near full functionality and data with WotLK in mind; doesn't give errors.
Does this sound okay? I wanted to put a stake in the ground, so there was some consistency with how these icons were interpreted. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 4:19 PM PST 29 Aug 2008
- You can also use
([[Image:Wrath-W-Small.png]]) to indicate AddOns where the developer specifically tested or optimized for. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 4:33 PM PST 29 Aug 2008

Can an admin verify that traffic has dropped off from this page? Otherwise I think some people might still find it useful. -Howbizr (talk) 16:22, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
