GitHub References
While some builds that are mentioned on GitHub come from more than one repository and fall under the acceptable notability guidelines. I believe that the majority are not notable as they just say "Hey, this build exists!", only consist of a build number and don't mention any notable bugs or features. Not to mention that I feel that these build pages clog up their respective OS version pages. Given that most Win10/Win11 updates have recently been removed, I feel like these references should follow suit. Especially since right now, Copper is around 45% GitHub references.

I think there are three potential ways forward: These are just some thoughts I've had over the last few days. Xeno (talk) 21:14, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Delete and disallow most build references that come from GitHub (This would be extremely unfair)
 * 2) Move the references to a separate page and potentially format them into a table as seen on my sandbox. Table Sandbox (The table is just a personal preference)
 * 3) Keep things as is


 * I think the second option you suggested is the most appropriate solution. It serves to mention that we know these builds exists without having a page for each of them. (I also think this idea can be extended to other "unnotable builds" as well, just a list to reference their existence). • Kiki79250CoC (Talk • Contribs • My Toaster™ specs) 06:15, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

 * You need to contribute 10 edits to the wiki to be able to upload images, which you seemingly don't have Orbitron (talk) 01:23, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
 * It basically gives you the autoconfirmed status - Someone (talk) 15:29, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

Any way to access the original Watercolor theme used on this site?
Hey all. I like the Watercolor theme used on this wiki, and I'd like to use it on other wikis. Sadly, I couldn't find the original CSS for the theme, where can I find it? --188.58.94.198 19:11, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

Windows 8 build 8377: What the...
Every WinJS should has ui.js, base.js and ui-light.js. Why there is no links on 8377's? Also why this:

///  /*! © Microsoft. All rights reserved.
 * 8377 ui.js

This library is supported for use in Windows Metro style apps only.

 * Why wouldn't you ask on the 8377 page in the first place? The community portal is for more general things, not stuff that only affects a single page. -- 07:20, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

Add Parallels Desktop page under "Hypervisors" section
This is the one hypervisor for macOS that BetaWiki leaves in the rain. How about we create a page about it?
 * You can't create non-discussion page because you aren't autoconfirmed. Btw, if your account is 4 days old and made at least 10 edits, then you will got autoconfirmed. -- 09:39, 5 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Then create one. -- 21:24, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

0x80072ee?
I recently gonna playing Roblox and finded nothing happens after clicking. After some seconds, i founded a error code 0x80072ee4 (UNCONFIRMED) that crashed it. 2001:F90:40C0:A072:1DC8:E778:526E:A2E6 09:28, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

Add Games
Should we add games to this and talk about their betas. I know The Cutting Room Floor exists, but it would be nice to have it in one Wiki
 * This wiki is for betas of OSes. Not for betas of games. So, I don't think your request will be accepted. Also all pages related to games that are not pre-installed in OSes are deleted long ago.
 * Famous apps or bundled apps too. Like Google Chrome or VMware. -- 05:39, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
 * TCRF already does that job very well, so why should we waste time doing what they already did? Yeah sure, it would be convenient to have it all on a single wiki -- but who's going to write the content? -- 12:08, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
