The wiki has been the number 1 resource of Team Fortress 2 information since it was created in October 2007, with it's goal being to provide Team Fortress 2 players with information that they will find useful to further their understanding of the game.  Valve had recognised the success and value of the Wiki but didn't want to officially reference it with all of the advertisements that were required for it to run, and so Valve kindly offered to host the wiki and give it the "Official" branding; which is the wiki you see today!

This is going to be a thread in the Steam User's Forums, Team Fortress 2, New Users / Training forum. I've got blessing from a mod, and he'll sticky it. Please expand it!

Team Fortress Wiki - A comprehensive information center for TF2

Greetings New Users! I hope you're enjoying the first few minutes of America's #1 war-themed hat simulator, Team Fortress 2! It may all seem very confusing at the moment, but that's where our wiki comes in! The Official Team Fortress Wiki documents everything to do with Team Fortress 2 and the culture surrounding it. The Wiki is a community effort of regular Team Fortress 2 players, each of which have played the game for different lengths of time, are at different "skill levels" but the single thing they share in common: The love of Team Fortress 2 and the need to share knowledge.

The wiki has been the number 1 resource of Team Fortress 2 information since it was created in October 2007, with it's goal being to provide Team Fortress 2 players with information that they will find useful to further their understanding of the game. Valve had recognised the success and value of the Wiki but didn't want to officially reference it with all of the advertisements that were required for it to run, and so Valve kindly offered to host the wiki and give it the "Official" branding; which is the wiki you see today!
