This might need to be the case for revisions, too, but someone brought up a good point that some changes are reasonably "cosmetic only" (e.g. Kirby going from being a jolly fellow to a clearly upset pink blob), while others are more gameplay-oriented, like making enemies more difficult or changing how some level layout was.

It might be too much work for too little gain to split these up, but I'm curious what everyone thinks.

It might be something to add as a new category to easily locate that kind of content on the site, but if these changes still occur at the regional/revisional level then I don't see a need to remove them from those sections on a page.

The gameplay-oriented changes are certainly more interesting, but they're all still regional differences anyway. It could be good if a page has a ton of content in its regional changes section to split it into multiple categories, but overall I don't think it's necessary.

If you're going to make that split I think you might as well count revisional differences under the same categories. That would mean it's not obvious which of those two is going on without reading the article.

I'm not sure what you'd gain from doing it, but I'm indifferent about it I guess.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
