Companies

These companies you're adding. They're official, right? -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 21:39, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, they're my signs that went official with Hoodoo. One was used in Doublecross. Nineaxis 21:41, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

I see. Carry on. Congrats, that's quite cool. -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 21:50, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Ok

You're now our custom maps moderator, though you can moderate any part of the Wiki. -- En Ex 22:09, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

I feel Category:Company images is appropriate for some of the images you are uploading, please add them at the time of upload. :) -- Pilk _(talk) 00:31, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Stop!

Stop moving all the pages to the new capitaliziations! We don't capitalize all the letters! -Firestorm 07:02, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Pilk told me to. Nineaxis 07:03, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

It's OK Firestorm, we've had a change of policy. :) -- Pilk _(talk) 07:04, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

mmmmk, I remember having this same issue on the last Wiki, didn't want it repeated. -Firestorm 07:05, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, it's good you are paying attention though! :D -- Pilk _(talk) 07:07, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

It's not hard to notice if you look at recent changes. Nineaxis 07:08, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm dedicated. It's Canada day, I'm at my cabin, everyone is sleeping but me because I decided to yell at the new Moderator. Awesome. Too bad I can't get on Steam so I can make fun of myself more easily.-Firestorm 07:10, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

I'm watching too >: But darn, I just told a new contributor to not capitalize this way this morning, and now things change? D: — WindPower 07:14, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Capital flu?

Do you have it? Not everything needs capitals, especially not section titles. Please undo that. As I said, we're matching tf_english, not capitalising everything. -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 17:37, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

No I don't. But I think section titles should be capitalized, especially when it's something Introduction Video. Nineaxis 17:45, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Besides, the Map style guide has it capitalized Nineaxis 17:50, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Userboxes

If you would like to make your own userboxes, create a template in your own userspace. For example, for the one you just made, go to User:Nineaxis/Template:User Duck and create the page with the userbox. Then, on your page, use {{User:Nineaxis/Template:User Duck}} where you want it to go. This keeps your userpage uncluttered and lets other users use it too! There is more info here Thanks! --Firestorm 18:15, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

It's just the chief of staff userbox with a bit of text replacement though, that's why I saw no need to make a new userbox page. -- Nineaxis 18:19, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Hungarian User Info Box

Hi! I saw you edited every national user info box, including the Hungarian. I ask, why poor Hungarian box has to be edited so many times? Once it was changed, then I got it alright gain, and now once more? :( Btw green is a quite secondary color in our flag, thats why it was red, I dunno why did you change it. And the new flag picture is so crappy too, sorry :( Although you have a very Hungarian name (Fabry, we've also got a comedian with that name here in Hungary) could you please not edit the info box? :) Thanks :)

ImmortalHUN 23:09, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

All the nationality user info boxes were standardized, as you can see on the User info boxes page. I'm not going to edit it again, but I would prefer if it matched the newer formatting (feel free to change the colors). You can leave it the way it is though- best if it makes Hungarians happy, not a silly American. -- Nineaxis 00:04, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I saw, but I don't know why don't youguys (admins and so) leave us free to change our info boxes (I made this Hungarian anno) :( Whatever, this is good now. I just say, if I want t make an alternative for the Hun. info box, I don't want it to be edited or deleted (I don't wanna be offensive, don't misunderstand please). :) Anyway, thanks! -- ImmortalHUN 12:12, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi! I'm wondering, why have you deleted these 3 translated pages. I don't understand the reason you wrote there. --ImmortalHUN 19:25, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Defensive, Support. and Offensive all redirect to Classes. -- Nineaxis 20:16, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

What gives exactly?

With all the really terrible things that pass as trivia, and all the ridiculous speculation of references, you've gotta give me that I can at least prove Napper's Respite rhymes with its name's origin. If that doesn't fit in, I really hope it's part of an effort to clean up awful trivia sitewide. --Shoegays 05:59, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

There is a huge wiki-wide effort to clean up trivia, because, as you said, most is terrible or speculation. We're trying to confirm that Rapper's Delight is, factually, the origin for the name of the Napper's Respite. Until then, it's pretty much filed away as coincidence. -- Nineaxis 13:41, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Hat Pricing Guide

Why have you deleted my Hat Pricing Guide article? Dude that's very helpful to everybody, many people get fooled by other players in trades, and I intended to keep it updated constantly to add/edit the item's values. That's INFORMATION, that's why this wiki is here, to help and inform, there's no reason to delete that article, you're power abusing... I'm starting to think that we can do nothing on this wiki, everything we do trying to help others is either edited or deleted, no matter how useful it is. Allukard 18:40 (GMT -03:00), 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Adding more posters

Can you check Yukon's assets and see if there is a FLOOR MASTER poster in there, and if so, can you add it to the poster list? Please let me know as soon as you can when you've done that. Thanks. -- En Ex _(talk) 21:14, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

I don't think there is one. -- Nineaxis 21:17, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Golden trivia

Hey there, I was just making a few cuts to the trivia entry for Golden Charity on the Golden Wrench to make it a little less cluttered, but now I see it's all been deleted (The original too). I'm new here so perhaps I don't know the trivia standards, but I'm pretty sure the charity event warrants a mention somewhere? GeneShark 05:46, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

It can be, but what we want to avoid is speculation, misleading/false statistics, and documentation of "drama" or otherwise - anything that isn't fact. Which is why the trivia was cut. Feel free to rewrite and add back in whatever you feel should be added, but try to comply with those basic guidelines. -- Nineaxis 05:49, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Will do, thanks GeneShark 05:57, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Jigglebones

They're hardly "standard." Their inclusion has become more common, sure, but not all hats have them. It'd be nice to know which ones do. It's actually one of the more valid trivia points I've seen. -Shine[] 23:15, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

 Nope.avi - we've been deleting jigglebone-remarks from trivia for a while. It's a tiny cosmetic detail, shared across many items. It is not interesting. ~ lhavelund ^{(talk ▪ contrib)} 23:16, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay, fine, it doesn't meat the trivia guidelines, so put it somewhere else. -Shine[] 23:19, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Clutter the infobox more? ~ lhavelund ^{(talk ▪ contrib)} 23:20, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

There is no reason to note it. It's uninteresting, commonplace, makes hats behave like you would expect them to... what's the point of noting it? -- Nineaxis 23:24, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

The point of noting it is because it's a factual piece of information related to the item. We might as well remove the painted colors section because it's "uninteresting." "obvious," and "commonplace." -Shine[] 23:31, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

We're noting it. It's good to know, and it is somewhat trivial, hence the trivia section. Don't remove anymore, and readd those that you've removed.  – Smashman _(talk) 23:34, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

The jigglebone is more trivial than the infobox. Just a little note saying that the hat has jigglebones and a link to the article. – Smashman _(talk) 23:50, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Adding to this discussion... who cares if a hat is jiggleboned? I disagree that it's a noteworthy attribute. As per the trivia guidelines: "Trivia items should be interesting and/or helpful. Items that satisfy neither of these are not worth mentioning."; I don't think noting whether or not a hat is jiggleboned is interesting nor helpful, I can't even think of a scenario in which somebody would need to know whether or not a hat is jiggleboned. In regards to what Shine said above, the Painted Variants section may not necessarily be interesting, but it is certainly helpful. -RJ 01:00, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

I agree with RJackson. If we're going to put "this hat is jiggleboned" in the trivia of every article for a hat with jigglebones, we might as well put "this weapon fires bullets" in the article of every gun that fires bullets. We shouldn't be pointing out nonsense like this, articles should be helpful and informative. Painted variants are very helpful and very informative. Saying a jiggly hat jiggles isn't so much. -- Nineaxis 01:03, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Can't we just put this to a vote or something? TheMedik 01:04, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

I'd be inclined to ... vote for this idea. ~ lhavelund ^{(talk ▪ contrib)} 01:06, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

There is already a page that is meant to keep track of what is jiggleboned in the game. If jigglebones already have a page then they are no longer trivia. Also, I don't think that trivia should ever be just a description of the item in question; saying that it is jiggleboned is really just saying what an object looks like while it is moving. It's not trivia. -- -- 01:09, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

"While the trivia does have a point, it's not really something that needs to be noted." Thank you for defining trivia, while trying to tell me that the exact same thing you just implied is not. SalaComMander 02:53, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Trivia are snippets of information you otherwise would most likely not know. Saying that the Medic's accent isn't really an accurate German accent follows the same vein as the New York/Boston trivia, but it would be equally lacking: we all know that the voice acting is fake and obviously inaccurate. -- Nineaxis 02:58, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Um.... what? -- Nineaxis 03:43, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Please don't do that. I notice that you have some of the descriptions wrong for the attributes anyway. For example, "referenced item def" is a value that refers to an item ID in the schema. By making a page for these or dumping them on to an existing one you're going to make it more difficult for us to correct them (descriptions and values are subject to change). Manually maintaining the list of attributes isn't a very good idea, especially when it can be automated. -- Lagg 03:53, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

It's not that I would exactly just use these descriptions. I would actually go a bit more into them, such as what their code is, how they work, etc. Although, I did realize M-NINJA is doing this job, so... AbeX300 19:52, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
