Achievement: A Year To Remember

• 2004 was the year that the Boston Red Sox won the World Series for the first time since 1918, breaking the Curse of the Bambino.

Maybe its also a reference to the release of Half Life 2? --Picard lm(de) 13:42, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

We had that there too, I believe it's probably more of a reference to the Baseball, because of the Scout's Boston and baseball heritage. -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 13:58, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Wilhelm Scream

• "Burtt then implemented the sound byte in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope when a Stormtrooper is shot."

Nice and all, but which one? - Axquirix

Sandman

Wouldn't that fit better under mythology? As far as I know, the Sandman is a mytholigic characters that uses sand to put people asleep, the song itself seems based on that. Kazzymodus 21:01, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Proposed Re-formatting

I have already made the following proposal for the Demoman references page, but as all of these pages follow the same formatting I'm making the same points here. The reference pages are, to be honest, a bit of a mess. I think it would work alot better and be neater overall if the reference pages were all set out in a more standard format; using sections such as "Achievements", "Weapons", and "Taunts" instead of making random headings simply for one tiny piece of trivia. People looking for an explanation of an achievement or taunt (many of which are fairly obscure) won't want to trawl through a list of meaningless titles like "Music" (which has only one topic), "TV and Film" and "Other".

My proposed new format would be far mose user-friendly to people searching for the meaning behind a specific phrase or achievement. I'll go ahead and try it out on the Demoman page if no objections are made within the next few days, then if it works out we can format the rest of these pages.
