RfC: Would this standard template for version history tables be helpful for software articles?[edit]
Proposal for a standard template for version history tables
I want to introduce this template here to the Computing styleguide or other central pages, with the goal to establish one standard for version history tables (or -lists) on WP. It simplifies creation of release histories, standardizes release stages (also, colors) and makes the content more accessible (by replacing the color codes with replacement information inside the title attribute). I imported it from german Wikipedia and I synchronize it manually. It is used widely on german WP, and begins to grow here on english WP. Using this template will, of course, be optional. Please comment.
Proposal 1 suggests introducing this template with a harmonized color scheme, different from the colors that are used now.
Proposal 2 suggests introducing this template and establish the currently spread de-facto standard.
Proposal 3 means it's not worth while and is a Color of the bike shed issue, as suggested by Codename Lisa.
