== Merge with {{tl|Weapon infobox}}? ==
{{c|Info}} Discussion started ''01 October 2010''.  Discussion ends ''08 October 2010''.

With the new 'tools' and 'actions', the lines between Weapon and Hat are getting blurred. With both templates doing functionally similar things, why don't we merge the two? {{n}}[[User:Smashman|<span class="bur">Smashman</span>]]<sub>&nbsp;([[User_talk:Smashman|talk]])</sub> {{bur}} 12:05, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

:{{c|support}} <strike>I support for now, but I haven't thought about it much.  Busy doing website-work for family.</strike>  I fully support now, they all share so many attributes already, it's silly to have them separate - especially when we're adding new attributes (craftable, tradable). -[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 20:50, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

* It's an unneeded complication. The work needed to perfect a merged infobox supporting weapons, hats, and tools or whatnot does not equal the perceived benefits of having them together.

{{c|Oppose}} I don't see a point --[[User:Firestorm|<font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]] {{mod}} 03:11, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

{{c|Oppose}} It'll only cause complications. --[[User:Parseus|Parseus]] 05:54, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

{{c|Oppose}} I'm sorry, but I don't see how the line between Hats and Weapons is being blurred, nor how this would happen with two new, distinct item types being introduced. --[[User:Alex2539|Alex2539]] 08:07, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

{{c|Support|Weakish Support}} One universal box with set parameters for class, release period, availability, craft, trade, paint, name, and all the other bits would be nice. Best to keep it clear which parameters are for weapon or hat or both, though.--[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]] 12:35, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

{{c|Oppose}} In my opinion it should remain the way it is atm [[User:Cthulhu1992|Cthulhu1992]] 15:38, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

==Template not working on non-english pages ==

[[Wiki Cap/fr]], [[Pyro's Beanie/de]], etc.
Seems like it isnt working. --[[User:Picard|Picard]] {{loc|de}} 14:00, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

== Misc cat. ==

 <nowiki> | [[Misc]] | [[Misc/pl|Różne]] | [[Misc/ru|Разное]] | = {{lang cat|Miscellaneous items}}</nowiki> 
Put your code here! It will generate <nowiki>Category:Miscellaneous items/%lang%</nowiki> without <nowiki>Category:Hats/%lang%</nowiki> — [[User:Laros123|<font color="#AE6DAE">'''Laros123'''</font>]]. 11:31, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
:I'm testing a better way to categorize misc items, please leave this for a little while. [[User:Seb26|<font color="#0B61A4">'''seb26'''</font>]] [[User talk:Seb26|<span style="font-size:95%;">[talk]</span>]] 06:32, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
::Okay this has been fixed now. All misc item pages should use {{code|1={{!}} hat-slot = misc}} (and I've gone through with a bot and changed them all). The link and the text displayed are now stored in this template (so everything can be updated at once).
