Improving the Wiki
headkase:
So, I gave this page: http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/MinGW_installation A good "once over." The last section, Development Tools, is all that survived out of the original page. All the sections above it are rewritten and focus on one compiler: TDM-GCC, with the basic procedure then applicable to other compilers if the user considers TDM deficient in some way.
Edit: I pretty well completely gutted that last surviving section (Development Tools) as well. It was a huge list of direct links. I condensed that into two links to the main project pages - where if someone wants they can then find their tool instead of maintaining a list of soon-to-be-outdated/dead of links on the Wiki. ZIP I did keep though, and updated the links so they are the most current.
Quiss:
I have just used wiki page(s) to build both wxWidgets and Code::Blocks, so far so good, thanks.
Maybe "-Wno-deprecated-declarations" could be added because there are lots of warnings like this one which increase the build time:
--- Quote ---F:\Codeblocks\src\plugins\xpmanifest\windowsxplooknfeel.cpp|136|warning: 'virtual void wxWindowBase::SetInitialBestSize(const wxSize&)' is deprecated [-Wdeprecated-declarations]|
--- End quote ---
I've used tdm-gcc-5.1.0 on Windows 10.

Would that need to be listed under building wxWidgets, Code::Blocks, or both? I will rewrite the Building from Source page to better reflect items that may or may not be necessary for a specific instance. In the mean-time you should - if you intend to make more contributions - request a Wiki account yourself!
headkase:
Cleaned up the optional items to use while building. Please correct me Quiss if I did not add your option correctly to the page.

Alpha:
Page is looking very nice. You may want to mention the cb_release_type global var (I usually use -g but sometimes -O2). Edit: oops, I seem to be blind, it is already there.
