:This is just disappointing, how people (like the people that vandalized pages) want to ruin things and cause things like this to happen. I do agree with what you did though, hopefully vandalism will stop. -[[User:Meow|Meow]] ([[User talk:Meow|talk]]) 19:07, 10 June 2019 (UTC) | :This is just disappointing, how people (like the people that vandalized pages) want to ruin things and cause things like this to happen.

== Removing "RTM Update" builds == | |||
After seeing some of these recent new Windows build pages, I feel like the "RTM Update" pages has to go. Most of these RTM Update pages are from Windows Update, and since there are over thousands of updates for each version of Windows, documenting RTM Update builds will take an extremely long time with Windows versions above 2000 having about 1000 pages worth of RTM Update builds. In case you don't know what I mean, here are some examples: | |||
*[[Windows 2000 build 2195.7397]] | |||
*[[Windows XP build 2600.7259]] | |||
*[[Windows Vista build 6001.18702]] | |||
*[[Windows Server 2003 build 3790.5190]] | |||
*[[Windows 8.1 build 9600.31213]] | |||
Do note that there are some builds that will be specifically staying. Any betas of Service Packs will stay (including the Spring 2014 Update of Windows 8.1 and Server 2012 R2), as they are still betas and achieve our goal of documenting betas. [[Windows Server 2008 build 6003.20489]] is also a special exception that will stay on this wiki due to the unique build number update. However, most of the remaining Update RTM builds should be removed as they only add more clutter to the wiki. I have a good feeling most of the RTM Update builds are also buildlist builds.
