Content Update Log
This page gives readers and editors a simple place to document meaningful content reviews, correction work, source checks, and major site-policy updates.
Purpose of this update log
A visible update log helps build trust because readers can see that the site treats accuracy as an ongoing process. Use this page to record meaningful updates, not every tiny typo fix. For example, add a log entry when a major guide is rechecked against official TPWD resources, an official link is replaced, a screenshot is updated, or a license-rule explanation is rewritten for clarity.

Editor reminder
When updating a fishing-license article, do not only change the date. Recheck the official source, test the important links, review the user workflow, check mobile formatting, and confirm that any warnings still match the current official process.
