Dogcraft Wiki:Contributing - Revision history

Domino: Added curated wanted pages. For now, did not add the updated pages section, as this page already has a pages to update box, and having two could be confusing. The two are different, as wanted page is curated and more aimed at content, while the one here grabs everything with the UpdateNeeded template. Will take care of later. Also added a Hide/Show button for the Tracked and Wanted boxes, default to show, to ease browsing. Can add later to the last two long lists as well.
