Classic Tutorials -> Publishing is out of date

[Talv]

1. Images

Another example is from classic guides. Publishing is viewed properly on GitHub, but the images on readthedocs are missing.

In this case it appears we're hotlinking from old Blizzard page, via http (unsecured), so browser refuses to display it. (Github displays it, as it caches and proxies it through their CDN).

These should be mirrored and added to the repo.

2. Storage Requirements

Battle.net has the following limits for published files per user: up to ten individual maps or mods (represented as “slots” in the dialog), with no more than 50 MB total size, and no more than 10 MB used for any single map or mod.

• It's 80 docs and 300 MB space.

3. Additions:

• Publishing requires making a purchase since SC2 went F2P
• Mention the whole "publishing is not enabled"
• Elaborate about other errors and solutions to them - "variant definitions could not be validated" etc. ( https://discord.com/channels/271701880885870594/680173045281062950/1313234397176270899 )

4. Add new section regarding map moderation, the approval process etc.

IMHO, best to remake this page on wiki.

for now i just fixed the images and the document count/size values.
the additions and moving it to the wiki are still open

Yep. This would be more or less like a new tutorial / doc page. If someone were to follow my guidelines, so pretty much expanding into a troubleshooting guide / best practices etc. when it comes to deploying content on the Battle.net.

And given the system itself do not even work, and many of us are annoyed it doesn't work, then surely no one is going to work on that right now :P Still, likely a TODO for the future. I was just blown away how barebone and out of date was the previous article concerning publishing, so decide to flag it as a thing that's not right.
