| − | == trivial addition; M. Bison Homage ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | It seems that this hat ( Wiki Cap) pays strong homage to the hat the M. Bison wears from the Street Fighter series. Judging by the fact most hats that pay homage to some other fiction work not it in the trivia page. Examples of this are the Whoopie Cap, the Tough Guy's Toque, and the Respectless Rubber Glove. I also looked through the archives and saw that there was no definitive answer if it should be added. [[User:Schrodingerscat|Schrodingerscat]] 03:30, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | :It doesn't look all that close to the M. Bison cap. If anything, it's closer to an attendant-styled cap than the M. Bison. Most make such an odd comparison due to the colors. --[[User:Vaught|<span style="text-shadow:pink 0px 0px 3px;"><font color=" #FFA6C9"><tt><big>'''Vaught'''</big></tt></font>]]</span> 03:37, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | ::It is simply a peaked cap. M. Bison just so happens to also wear a peaked cap. They are a common and somewhat stereotypical head-wear items of military officers and are not inherently attached to any one figure in particular. Unless you can find actual evidence besides the visual similarity between the Wiki Cap and M. Bison's hat that the two are connected, the trivia should NOT be added. If it is a guess or an assumption, it is not trivia. -- [[Image:User Alex2539 Sig.png|47px|link=User:Alex2539|Alex2539]] - {{mod}} <sub>([[User_talk:Alex2539|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Alex2539|contribs]])</sub> -- 06:29, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | You can say it looks like M. bisons hat because it's the same color and the golden eagle seen on M. bison's was replaced with the Team Fortress cross hair logo, but it's not that much of a direct reference to M. bison. Although, like Alex said there's no proof otherwise.[[User:Tt3socal|Peter Antonio Filippis]] 01:02, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

| − | == trivial addition; Dutch Railway cap ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The global view of the Wiki Cap is that it possesses a strong resemblance to the hat used by the Dutch Railway personnel. (link to example of Railway Cap : [http://friesecultuur.nl/thema/beroepen/machinist_2.jpg The Dutch Railway Cap] ) It is unknown if there is any reference to it when it was created, although it does look quite similar. State your opinion on if it needs to be added. [[User:FoOz|FoOz]] 10:56, 16 November 2010 (UTtate
| |
| − | : As the article states, it is just a stereotypical {{w|peaked cap}}. Peaked caps are used in many professions, not just for Dutch railways. -- [[User:Nineaxis|<span style="color:#507D2A;font-weight:bold;font-family:

| − | == Team Spirit Paint? ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Just curious, there's a question-mark for Team Spirit paint under the Wiki Cap. My question is this: Does Team Spirit paint affect hats that already change color based on team, and if so, should we leave an "X" or something there to denote whether or not you can even get that hat? It's a nit-pick, but it sort of looked to me as if "there is this sort of hat out there, but we don't have an image yet". [[User:StarYoshi|StarYoshi|]] 21:06, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

| − | ::Neo said the version in mdlviewer was wonked up as it didn't work properly. And to remove headgear of classes, you go to the Model tab, click on the first list button (Should say the class name) and find its hat, be it helmet or cap or whatever. Then pick Submodel two. Its gone, tada! But yeah, it being an all class item means its a one-size fits all thing, meaning its not going to fit well with the other classes, like Scout, due to weird clipping. --[[User:Vaught|<span style="text-shadow:pink 0px 0px 3px;"><font color=" #FFA6C9"><tt><big>'''Vaught'''</big></tt></font>]]</span> 11:00, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

| − | It is suggested however, to post on talk pages frequently, as discussion about an article's content can still lead to improvements overall, as well as lending legitimacy to your edits and making you a more active member and therefore more eligible to the humans who decide who gets the cap.

| − | Okay, after awhile with editing and translating the english and norwegian TF Wiki parts I feel like its no use to get on the Candidate List. I really put efford and thinking about the community but it's just not good for em' at all. Im not saying "Please, put me on the List!" but Im just sick of translating by myself and dont have any others to help me.. As this leads up to, I will not going to ask more then this: Can you guys just tell the exact guideline to me as an translator and dont put up so many huge contributors (even they deserve the Cap) all too often? [[User:Ravecrib9t4|Ravecrib9t4]] 20:16, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | :I'm sorry, but your edits were insufficient (not by far) for your name to appear on the list. We can still consider you for voting if you'd like, but there are, as you mentioned, other "huge contributors" (each of them putting quite a lot of effort too) which have not received the cap yet, and who probably will before you.
| |
| − | :Part of your problem seems to stem from the lack of other Norwegian translators. I think the best thing you could do is to recruit other Norwegian speakers you know. Recruitment, while it doesn't "count for points" on the list, is still a great contributing factor, and it would also make editing the Norwegian pages more fun. Editing the wiki by yourself is no fun, so we appreciate your work so far~ — [[User:WindPower|<span style="font-weight:bold;">Wind</span>]] 01:43, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

| − | == Phong ==
| |

| |
| − | Community items adds a strong phong boost to the material file. Does the Infobox image and class images shows that phong boost? I don't know if the cosmetics affects that, and only Weapons get that boost. However, the Wiki Cap is solely a Community item. The Wiki Cap .vmt may already includes that (I haven't investigated). I can't really figure out the difference between on Wiki Cap with this phong boost and without, only on the Scattergun (Which there is a picture [[:File:Commwep phongcompare.png|here]]).

| |
| − | : There's no lines for the strong phong in the VMTs, and I haven't seen anything like that on it ingame, so it doesn't appear to be set elsewhere in the code. Valve probably didn't see it as necessary for the Wiki Cap because the item is special enough on its own, and as far as I'm aware it's the only item that's not a weapon that can be obtained in the community quality. --[[User:Omolong|Omolong]] ([[User talk:Omolong|talk]]) 11:05, 21 March 2015 (PDT)
