When writing an article about a patch, you can use this template to create an infobox. Call it like this:

{{patch
 |name=NAME
 |author=AUTHOR
 |download=http://link/to/patch
 |bilious=BILIOUS NUMBER
}}

Name is an optional parameter that defaults to the page's name. The other parameters are also optional; if a parameter is omitted, unknown is substituted in the box, and no link is generated. Any use of this template should have at least one of download or bilious.

The bilious number (so-called from the former name of the database) generates a link to http://nhpatchdb.alt.org/?number in the NetHack Patch Database. Supply a number if possible, because the PatchDB contains a lot of useful info and users can edit it. This template highlights the link.
