RPG Superstar Formatting?

Apologies for time wasted if this is a dumb question, but after perusing both the original and amended versions of the PFRPG Magic Items rules, I've been unable to find a "proper" Wondrous Item. The only items detailed so far are artifacts and cursed items, neither of which bear complete "stat blocks" for wondrous items, particularly in the section for crafting requirements. I understand that there are obvious reasons for the omission of "standard" wondrous items, but with "PFRPG Formatting" present in the criterion for entries, I was really hoping for something to base my entry off.

It would just answer a few questions I have about item presentation (where/how are the spellcraft DCs/spell prerequisites shown, how else does the format different from 3.5, etc.)

If any of those people who have submitted their entries or are more perceptive than myself can help me out with an example or explanation so I can fix up my submission, it'd be much appreciated.

The Beta rules hold information about proper format. You can download them.

Okay... went back to the more recent Beta zip and got the other file... that made me feel stupid. Thanks Darkjoy, for your help and your time.

Yep, the Beta core rules and first web enhancement have many standard magic item stat blocks. Also see the "Questions" thread for an answer by Jason Bulmahn on the proper way to note the Craft or Profession skill to make an item (this is still optional as far as I know).
