teh formatz of BotB were not always as plentiful as they are now !
BotBr Quirby64 has conducted some internal research of teh many formats of BotB and has organized them by their first appearance.
teh RESEARCH STRATEGY was as followz:
1) sort by when + ascending in teh browser.
2) have all formats selected.
3) find first use,
4) add to the article,
5) remove that format,
6) continue until present.
this has all been double checked. enjoy ! mwa !
