Hi, I've noticed you've been making a lot of repeated edits to the same pages one after the other, often consisting of small fixes. When you edit a page, could you please use the "Show Preview" button first so that you can catch those errors before publishing the page? The way you're doing it is flooding the Recent Changes and is a little bit annoying. I'm glad you're making edits, but it would be nice if it was all done at once. Thanks. -- [[Image:User Alex2539 Sig.png|link=User:Alex2539]] -- 05:19, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
==[[Mini-Crit]]==
 
 
 
May I ask why you removed all links to the Mini-Crit page on the weapons pages? --[[User:Firestorm|<span style="text-shadow:orange 0px 0px 3px;"><font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]] {{mod}}</span> 07:32, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
:I made those changes for consistency as I noticed some weapon pages had the Mini-Crits links while the majority didn't. I'm not sure what the popular consensus is, but I'd be happy to go through them all and add the links in? [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 07:36, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
:: It would be better to have the link, in case new people are here and don't know what a Mini-Crit is.

== Removing strategy tip ==
 
 
 
You really think that teamwork between engineers is not necessary in the game? Really? [[User:Fuutard|Fuutard]] 12:07, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:No I do but those tips are only the official tips that show up on the loading map/joining server screen. There is a separate article for other tips. [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 12:10, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

== clipping undos ==
 
 
 
Sorry about that. I assumed putting clipping problems in trivia was fine cause I saw it in several other articles. [[User:ChillColdCoolaid|ChillColdCoolaid]]
 
:That's okay, they shouldn't have been in the other articles in the first place. Also next time reply on the same Talk Page so it's easier to follow conversations ;) [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 20:15, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

May i ask you why you're taking all my edits off the pages? Basing it off other edits, i don't see why you do. [[User:Rickly|Rickly]] 23:30, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:Because they don't meet the [[Help:Style_guide/Trivia|trivia style guidelines]]. Most have consisted of unrelated coincidences, minor bugs or uninteresting facts. [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 23:32, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

== Painted Hound Dog bug ==
 
Hi, I had put information about a bug concerning the painted Hound Dog's model on it's trivia section and you've deleted it, it's ok but I'd like to know why you did that, because I also saw information about the Sniper's model bugs on the Sniper's trivia section, so I'm confused because they're both explaining model bugs, what's the problem with my edit? [[User:Allukard|Allukard]] 18:45 (GMT -03:00), 8 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:Hiya. It was decided a while back that bugs don't count as trivia. Especially bugs that are very minor and don't affect gameplay. If you've noticed it on other articles rest assured, they will be removed soon. [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 22:42, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
 
::Oh ok, thanks for the explanation, cya. [[User:Allukard|Allukard]] 19:30 (GMT -03:00), 11 November 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
==Removed tip on HHHH==
 
I saw you removed my tip on the (let's see if I can get this right) Horseless Headless Haunted Head Taker. My tip read as follows, "Currently, The Headless Horsemann's Headtaker has the longest name of any weapon in the game.". I feel this is an interesting bit of trivia, as it is correct. I did, however, make the description "tip" which confuses even me. I must have left my brain on Auto-Pilot. It should have read something along the lines of "added trivia". I'd hate to think it was removed just because of an incorrect description. I was wondering if under these now explained circumstances it could be re-added. Cheers [[User:MogDog66|MogDog66]] 22:11, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 
: Whilst I approve the addition of trivia and curse the day trivia executioners ruled this wiki, that's not exactly a great piece of trivia. The key is asking yourself if they already know this from reading the rest of the article or playing the game. In this instance, people will be able to guess that the HHHH is the longest named weapon in the game. --<span style="color:purple">'''''Focusknock'''''</span>  [[Help:Group rights|<span class="burbg">s</span>]] 22:14, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
==Marking custom maps for deletion==
 
You seem to have been marking several custom maps for deletion on the grounds that "nobody plays this map," or "not notable." How is this grounds for the deletion of a page? -[[User:Nerdboy|Nerdboy]] 01:38, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:Some of them were mark by mistake on my part. Some of them are not notable though, and that is grounds for deletion if enough other people consider them not notable enough. [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 01:44, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

==Poker Night Release==
 
Hello, I was wondering if once the update goes live, can I add all the appropriate linking immediately (November 22, 12 AM)? Or should I wait for confirmation. Things like the Maim badge have already been reported by Valve to be all class, so should I only add already confirmed ones? [[User:MogDog66| <font color=green size=2.8><i><b><u>MogDog66</u></b></i>]]</font> <i> [[file:User MogDog66 Service Metal No WhiteSpace.png|22px|link=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/User:MogDog66]] <sub>[[User talk:MogDog66|t]]</sub> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/MogDog66|c]]</sub> <sub><span class="plainlinks">[http://steamcommunity.com/id/mogdog66 p]</span></sub> </i> || 05:45, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:Well only the License to Maim Badge has been confirmed to be all class I believe. The rest are just intelligent guesses as to whether they'll be misc/hats or reskins of certain weapons. So the ideal thing to do would be to wait until we have confirmation before we start adding in links and templates. [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 06:01, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

Why did you remove the trivia of the fish being a monty python reference, it obviously is and nowhere is it stated in the trivia? [[User:Tryer|Tryer]] 22:47, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:Hiya. It was removed because the only link is that they are both fish. Apart from that the link to the scout owning one is tenuous. Do you have any source saying otherwise? [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 23:11, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
 
::You know, you maybe right here. I can't find any reliable sources, how about we put "it may be a reference to Monty Python" as a precautionary? [[User:Tryer|Tryer]] 23:16, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:::Ah that's a big no no. The moment the words 'it may be a reference' are uttered it'll be removed. Otherwise the wiki would be full of tenuous trivia references. There is currently a revised set of guidelines being compiled to clarify the wiki's position. [[User:Moussekateer|Moussekateer]] 23:21, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I was just wondering why you set my talk page back to the format it was before, I didn't change NeoTanker's message, just wanted to organize my talk page a bit. :) [[User:Sonic Nova|Sonic Nova]] 22:16, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

One definition is 'An idea that self-reproduces like a virus; a catchphrase or concept, or other unit of social currency. Example: "Where's the beef?"'. I don't believe Seeman meets that criteria.

== Balrog Skull Trivia ==
 
 
 
''Self-Facepalm''...  I even double checked the edit history because I'm one of those sensitive users that feels bad when deleting someone's content.  It just seemed to make sense...  Is there a discussion somewhere about this?  I feel like the reference is reallllly speculative, significantly since the horns are shaped differently, and there's been demons with downward facing horns for ages. I think it'd be just as fair as to say that the artist was influenced by, say, Diablo or something like that.  I know Weta Digital was responsible for Gollum's model, and the effects on the Balrog, and I know that the modeler that created these hats was somehow involved with Gollum's CGI... but again... to him to both characters and then tie that back into the hat just seems overly speculative in comparison to the rest of the wiki.  Regardless, thanks for catching my error. [[User:CptObvious|CptObvious]] 01:15, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
 
:It's okay, you're not the first to have misread that edit notice :P We can't say for sure that he was influenced by the Balrog model but the fact that his company did do the effects is a nice bit of trivia. The connection is there, so it's not baseless speculation. '''<span style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:83%;">—[[File:User Moussekateer signature sprite.png|31px|link=User:Moussekateer]][[User:Moussekateer|<span style="color:black">Moussekateer</span>]]·[[User talk:Moussekateer|<span style="color:black;font-size:82%;">talk</span>]]</span>''' 01:20, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
 
::I definitely understand that it's not ''baseless'', but we've definitely slaughtered other trivia for less-concrete evidence.  I mean, if we're willing to concede that we can't say for sure that it's what influenced the hat, while it may not be baseless, it still violates the rule of having trivia only "be facts, not speculation."  With different wording, this trivia would never fly. "The Spine chilling skull may or may not have been influenced by the Balrog from LOTR, as the modeler may have been the same person, or might have drawn inspiration from it."  Interesting?  Yes, very... but Speculative?  Yes, very. It just seems "meh" considering the normal standard on the wiki.  That's what I was so confused when I saw that I had misread the notice.[[User:CptObvious|CptObvious]] 01:34, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
 
:::The fact of the matter is that a Valve employee did tell us a Weta modeler made the skull, who also worked on the Balrog. That connection is interesting. He possibly didn't base it on the Balrog, but say if the Brigade helm was designed by a firefighter that would be interesting, even if we cannot say where he got his inspiration from.

::::You know, it comes across VERY differently when you say it like that.  Right now, the connection is being made from the resemblance and speculates the inspiration.  If the connection focused on the modeler and his connection the the shapes and forms, it would feel a LOT less vague and a lot less like speculation.
 
&nbsp;
 
:::::''"The Spine-Chilling Skull bears a resemblance to the Balrog from The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, presumably because the hat was modeled by the man who also made Gollum's face in the movies"'' (Current)
 
:::::''"The Spine-Chilling Skull was modeled by an artist from Weta Digital, the same studio responsible for modeling characters from the Lord of the Rings film trilogy such Gollum and the Balrog.  The latter of the two, interestingly, bears quite a resemblance to the Spine-Chilling Skull." ''
