| |
− | Hello Mr. Firestorm, sir.
| |
− |
| |
− | I recently made an account after mooching data off of you guys forever, and I decided to help in return. Good for me. Unfortunately, I haven't found much to do aside the common grammar fix, and I'm itching to write something worthwhile. So, er, you seemed like a good place to start. Would you direct a misguided nubble towards something to do? [[User:TheMedik|TheMedik]] 19:25, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
| |
− | : First thing's first, you aren't allowed to be so formal next time you talk to me, it makes me seem old. The first place to look would be in the [[Team Fortress Wiki:Tasks|Task list]] which can be found by clicking "Help" on the left sidebar. In there, you can complete items on todo lists, fill out stubs and fix orphaned/dead end pages. Projects that are currently ongoing are:
| |
− |
| |
− | * Remove unneeded trivia from ALL the articles on the Wiki
| |
− | * Develop the [[:Category:Strategy|Strategy]] articles more thoroughly
| |
− | * Test various statistics and measurements for new Polycount weapons.
| |
− |
| |
− | :Let me know if you're interested in any of these, and I'll direct you to the person running the project. --[[User:Firestorm|<span style="text-shadow:orange 0px 0px 3px;"><font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]] {{mod}}</span> 01:33, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

− | Well, I think Pyro talking is an important lifeskill that we should all learn (its the best gas-mask imitation). Besides all that, I didn't realise the importance of cutting down trivia before. I thought we should have added more, until Alex2539 showed me old wiki pages where the trivia sections were so long it was tedious to read. So now I understand the way this wiki works, I hope I can make positive contributions. By the way, how do you editors respond so quickly to wiki edits?
