Hmm... I think wiki is correct. That first link only talks about the spells. Hate was after Halloween that year as the Halloween event unlocked Hate.

Listed below are the enhancements introduced in this patch.

*Zone Enhancements*
Following the Halloween event which took place on Sunday night, the Plane of Hate was officially opened with new unique armor, weapons, and items. Please note, to enter the Plane of Hate, you must be at least 46th level or greater.
Sol Ro was October which is how it is on the Wiki

We are excited to announce the implementation of the new "Optional" patch system. This new system will allow players to download new optional files such as zones, music, character animations, etc. After the EverQuest executable is run (everquest.exe), and once the download is complete, you will receive an option to patch the "optional" files. If "Yes" is selected, the optional files will begin downloading, if "No" is selected, you will bypass the optional files and continue. Please note that this optional patch requestor will appear every time everquest.exe is run.

In addition to the optional patch program, the following changes and enhancements have been made:

Optional Patch
A new zone, The Temple of Solusek Ro, is now available via the optional patch.
That said, Nilbog's patch release timeline does not follow the classic timeline. Hate and Sol Ro seem to be transposed. Should be the other way around with Hate in June and Temple in May.

The wiki timeline is trying to be true to the classic patch notes as possible. As we have official launches on Green the wiki will be updated. P99 staff may choose to deviate from whatever evidence we might have regarding change dates. Some of our evidence is very strong, some not so much,.
