Trivia wording

I am not sure "portmanteau" is the correct word to describe Geiger > Giger. "Portmanteau" is where two separate words become one single word with both meanings e.g. smoke + fog = smog. I'm not sure what the correct word would be here, sorry! Casperr (talk) 15:23, 7 October 2015 (PDT)

Inspect animation bug

Should the bug about the inspect animation really be listed? It's not like Valve normally lets you inspect it. Hoot...HOOT (talk) 18:52, 9 October 2015 (PDT)

Expand the item's main summary and move the Aliens mention to Trivia

Right now, the page mentions the reference to this item on the main summary of the item, where most of the times, these kinds of information are located in the Trivia section instead. Unlike promotional items (that are usually based on their original sources), this is more a look-a-like than a 1:1 replica, and it's not a promo item either. Also, the actual description for the weapon's appearance is quite brief ("It has a joystick attached to the top of the handle and emits a team-colored light that glows in the dark."), not detailing the radar monitor or the switch on the back.

I would suggest moving the part about being based on "M314 Motion Tracker from Aliens" to the Trivia section, and expand the description a lil' bit (it seems that the brief description is because it's additional features to the "M314 Motion Tracker", however, since I'm suggesting for that info to be moved to Trivia, then the description needs to be expanded to not just explain additional things compared to the original "M314").

I think it's fine to be removed entirely, the only source of it is the original edit stating "I noticed that the motion tracker from aliens and the giger counter in tf2 look pretty much the same". If you wanna replace it entirely (remove the reference + adding a proper description), that's fine.

This weapon is drowning in a pile of a dead And forgotten weapon

Jesus Christ I feel bad for this weapon it's like forgotten yeah I know its a reskin but like Jesus Christ valve could have been a Buyable weapon or could have been a promo weapon they could earn for buying a toy but Nope you have to leave it to die the only way you can buy is probably the community market or trading they're trying to find someone who actually owns this weapon this is like kind Like trying to find a needle in a haystack but hey so what made dust off this weapon it may sell it on the community market Edit this topic to add more stuff if you want Bye Nuclear meltdown (talk) 04:28, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
