Version info: new section

New page

== Version info ==

Currently, version info is shown with a nice little icon like so:

{{MudletVersion|3.11}}

Sometimes, there are multiple versions mentioned, if a function was improved upon repeatedly:

{{MudletVersion|3.0}} for the 2nd parameter
{{MudletVersion|3.5}} for the 3rd parameter

Could probably improve the version template with an option to show the changes inline directly.

Also, some version numbers are very old like 3.0 and may not actually be of much interest to many.

Therefore, let's try use a hidden block to stash away all this version info for the interested few.

Meanwhile all casual readers will not be confused by old and dated version comparisons taking up space:

{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable"
|+ style="white-space:nowrap; border:1px solid; padding:3px;" | Version history.
|-
! Version !! Changes
|-
| {{MudletVersion|3.0}} || for the 2nd parameter
|-
| {{MudletVersion|3.5}} || for the 3rd parameter
|}

As for layout, the templates may be combined and condensed to not repeat themselves as often this way.

As for contents, it should probably go into a little more detail but stay concise on what exactly was changed in that version.

Meanwhile the main description shown outside this collapsed block should do away with any such historical comparisons and just explain the most recent status quo as is.

As for positioning, not sure if this should go right near the top of a functions definition (maybe right-aligned as well?) or towards the end before the example where it currently (mostly) resides.

Then again, going through all hundreds of functions which Mudlet offers meanwhile may get tedious and take some time to change into using this new structure, so old remarks may stay for a while unfortunately.
