• 21:1221:12, 30 August 2018 diff hist −1‎ NSFe ‎ →‎NEND: clarify that NEND has the functional property of truncating the file. No following data does not appear to be a requirement in any supporting player.
• 18:1918:19, 30 August 2018 diff hist +33‎ PAL video ‎ see also NTSC video

29 August 2018

• 17:2117:21, 29 August 2018 diff hist −169‎ m Mapper ‎ removing secret unicode span ids (?)

25 August 2018

• 19:4619:46, 25 August 2018 diff hist +82‎ NSFe ‎ →‎psfx: adding rationale (i.e. a lot of people seem to complain about SFX in rips)
• 19:1619:16, 25 August 2018 diff hist +608‎ NSFe ‎ →‎plst: chunk for flagging sound effects, creating separate music/sfx playlists
• 19:0919:09, 25 August 2018 diff hist +68‎ NSFe ‎ →‎Structure: forgot to add the UTF-8 blanket recommendation in that last edit somehow
• 19:0719:07, 25 August 2018 diff hist −120‎ NSFe ‎ moving UTF-8 recommendation to the top as a blanket statement, don't really need to say it 5 times
• 19:0619:06, 25 August 2018 diff hist +538‎ NSFe ‎ →‎taut: tepples wanted a chunk for individual track composers in the old NSF2 thread
• 18:5218:52, 25 August 2018 diff hist +211‎ NSF ‎ →‎Caveats: note about PowerPak and how its banking implementation fails to switch tracks for this case
• 05:1005:10, 25 August 2018 diff hist +168‎ PowerPak ‎ →‎PowerPak development resources: loopy's NSF player source, alternate link for partial mappers

24 August 2018

• 20:1620:16, 24 August 2018 diff hist +37‎ NSFe ‎ →‎regn: clarify that this goes after INFO
• 04:0004:00, 24 August 2018 diff hist −7‎ m INES Mapper 031 ‎ →‎Emulator support: MAME goes back at least as far as 0.162 when it incorproated MESS, MESS had it several months prior but history is hard to track down and this is good enough

23 August 2018

• 21:3021:30, 23 August 2018 diff hist +1‎ m Namco 163 audio ‎ →‎Waveform: another an to be consistent with last edit
• 21:2421:24, 23 August 2018 diff hist +1‎ m INES Mapper 031 ‎ →‎Emulator support: OpenEMU is inconsistent about what they call this core, but maybe FCEUX is more technically accurate
• 21:2221:22, 23 August 2018 diff hist +63‎ INES Mapper 031 ‎ adding ZENSF to examples
• 21:1621:16, 23 August 2018 diff hist +51‎ INES Mapper 031 ‎ →‎Emulator support: OpenEmu
• 21:0321:03, 23 August 2018 diff hist +308‎ INES Mapper 031 ‎ →‎Emulator support: all these emulators have public release versions now, no need to use obscure versioning numbers, also providing links

21 August 2018

• 17:2717:27, 21 August 2018 diff hist +60‎ m NSFe ‎ small for chunk addition dates
• 05:2505:25, 21 August 2018 diff hist +126‎ NSF ‎ →‎Header Overview: note that Japanese mostly doesn't appear in game rips, ASCII is good enough in majority of cases
• 05:1705:17, 21 August 2018 diff hist +59‎ NSFe ‎ →‎regn: relationship with RATE
• 05:1605:16, 21 August 2018 diff hist +307‎ NSFe ‎ →‎RATE: RATE can support Dendy
• 05:1205:12, 21 August 2018 diff hist +42‎ NSFe ‎ →‎regn: note Dendy has same playback rate as PAL
• 05:0805:08, 21 August 2018 diff hist +228‎ NSF ‎ →‎Header Overview: note the string types
• 05:0405:04, 21 August 2018 diff hist +6‎ NSFe ‎ →‎Chunks: tlbl also should have UTF-8 recommendation, removing date for that recommendation
• 05:0205:02, 21 August 2018 diff hist +938‎ NSFe ‎ regn chunk to add Dendy support, adding dates to more recent chunk additions, adding UTF-8 suggestion (I believe all extant NSFes are ASCII), noting why the RATE chunk should normally be omitted

13 August 2018

• 00:0500:05, 13 August 2018 diff hist 0‎ m Random number generator ‎ →‎External references: typo: 32 vs 23?

12 August 2018

• 20:2820:28, 12 August 2018 diff hist +64‎ Random number generator ‎ →‎External references: should probably directly link CC65's rand since it's a good'un

11 August 2018

• 17:3417:34, 11 August 2018 diff hist −24‎ PPU registers ‎ →‎Bit 0 bus conflict: I think predicting a sprite 0 fail crash is going a bit extreme, all we need to warn is that the mischosen background can interfere with sprite 0 on that particular scanline.

9 August 2018

• 21:5421:54, 9 August 2018 diff hist +49‎ m INES Mapper 019/Submapper table ‎ noinclude backlink for easier editing current
• 21:5321:53, 9 August 2018 diff hist +70‎ INES Mapper 019/Submapper table ‎ maybe highlight the deprecation of submapper 1 and explain its detail slightly more
• 21:4821:48, 9 August 2018 diff hist +2‎ m INES Mapper 019/Submapper table ‎ removing "max." decoration as well, maybe bold the dB values since they're the critical information
• 21:4421:44, 9 August 2018 diff hist +2‎ INES Mapper 019/Submapper table ‎ + is redundant to "louder" and ~ is redundant to a range. Adjusting ranges to just be nearest .5db of extremes measured in samples so that it doesn't seem so arbitrarily picked (implementer can analyze the sample data themselves if they want to get fussy)
• 21:4121:41, 9 August 2018 diff hist −6‎ m Namco 163 audio ‎ →‎Mixing: I think most of this wiki consistently uses ō rather than ou (and it probably helps to be consistent with Bootgod, TOSEC, etc.)
• 21:3721:37, 9 August 2018 diff hist +87‎ INES Mapper 019/Submapper table ‎ creating a self link and title row to make it easier to access as an editor
• 21:3021:30, 9 August 2018 diff hist −313‎ Namco 163 audio ‎ →‎Mixing: merging the sample tables
• 21:2521:25, 9 August 2018 diff hist +450‎ Namco 163 audio ‎ →‎Mixing: restoring some of the note about simplified mixing approximation (though really we should produce a table of measured relative volume for 1 channel at each active channel count)
• 07:5407:54, 9 August 2018 diff hist −202‎ NSF ‎ →‎Header Overview: removing premature designation

8 August 2018

• 20:5420:54, 8 August 2018 diff hist +736‎ N Talk:2A03 ‎ Formatting reversion explanation current
• 20:5020:50, 8 August 2018 diff hist −375‎ m 2A03 ‎ Reverted edits by Qalle (talk) to last revision by Rainwarrior
• 06:2406:24, 8 August 2018 diff hist −69‎ NES 2.0 ‎ →‎Byte 10 (RAM size): I had described the internal RAM cases sort of as if they were optional, not sure if that was appropriate
• 06:0606:06, 8 August 2018 diff hist +63‎ NES 2.0 ‎ →‎Byte 10 (RAM size): 157 is different, not sure exactly what to say about it here
• 06:0406:04, 8 August 2018 diff hist +204‎ NES 2.0 ‎ →‎Byte 10 (RAM size): maybe note that this isn't ''quite'' a save file size field.
• 05:5805:58, 8 August 2018 diff hist +31‎ MMC3 ‎ →‎iNES Mapper 004 and MMC6: should mention submapper assignment
• 05:5505:55, 8 August 2018 diff hist +150‎ MMC6 ‎ should mention submapper
• 05:4405:44, 8 August 2018 diff hist +1,371‎ NES 2.0 ‎ →‎Byte 10 (RAM size): trying to separate the majority case to make it clear that this field only unambiguously applies to $6000 and everything else is special. Not sure if I've listed all the relevant mappers, but I think this gets most or all cases?
• 04:2404:24, 8 August 2018 diff hist −74‎ NES 2.0 ‎ →‎Overview: the lead already credits KH and links to his original proposal, but he is not really the writer of this living document at this point? (special thanks are also relegated to that original document)

7 August 2018

• 20:1020:10, 7 August 2018 diff hist −522‎ NES 2.0 ‎ removing more stories about Kevin that don't really help the spec
• 20:0720:07, 7 August 2018 diff hist −152‎ NES 2.0 ‎ →‎Byte 11 (Video RAM Size): this anecdote doesn't really help understand the spec
• 20:0220:02, 7 August 2018 diff hist −149‎ NES 2.0 ‎ →‎Byte 10 (RAM size): N163: rereading this guideline it is underspecified and confusing, rewriting with tentative guideline from: [http://forums.nesdev.com/viewtopic.php?p=222948#p222948]
• 19:4419:44, 7 August 2018 diff hist +89‎ NES 2.0 ‎ →‎Byte 10 (RAM size): grouping the weird stuff into a list of special cases
