Copy and paste plus trivial links[edit]

Please avoid just doing copy and paste of the Orbiter Changelog. A URL to the page on the orbiter homepage can also show this information in this form, and most Orbiter users outside the beta team will not understand what you posted. Please only write about publicly released Orbiter versions. See the history gallery on Orbithangar for the list of released Orbiter versions.

Also don't make each noun or less often used verb a link. Most stuff you linked is trivial stuff, which would end up getting moved to the correct major article anyway. Also don't link a word more then once per major section. Too many links make the articles hard to read. One link per major section is considered a good maximum, one link per article would be normal.

Please do the article again and this time think before you just copy and paste stuff or make every third word a link. Write a good summary of the changes since Orbiter 031217 and create links for words, which can also have an article of their own. We don't intend to become a dictionary or have an article for each spacecraft specific part (for example an article for each DeltaGlider panel switch - this would end in the Deltaglider article anyway)
