Talk:List of references (Heavy)

Youtube embedding

Is there a better way that this can be done? The videos stretch the page incredibly. -Firestorm 08:08, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

It's not A Clockwork Orange reference....

Actually, the Heavy doesn't say "Horrorshow" (in the supposed reference to A Clockwork Orange) - he says Horosho!. It's a Russian word ("Хорошо!"), meaning "good" or "excellent". Much more appropriate, considering it's one of his "Good Job" voice commands, don't you think? -Sentient6 19:14, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

Yes, that seems to be the more obvious answer Balladofwindfishes 13:30, 17 November 2010 (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 "TV and Film" (which has only one topic), "Places" and "Organisations".

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.

I've finished re-formatting this page - the Demoman, Pyro, Scout and Soldier ones are done too. Still working on the rest of the hat references and some of the achievements. Please leave any feedback on the new layout on my Talk Page.

Fists Of Steel Reference

Am I the only one failing to see how the Fists Of Steel and the Duke Nukem quote are related? If I am correct can it please be removed? Thanks. Shauny7488 02:12, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

I'm not really familiar with Duke Nukem, but after a little searching it does appear to be a bit of a random reference. I've removed it for now, but if anyone has any valid evidence that it was a real reference then don't hesitate to put it back in. Cooper Kid (Blether)·(Contreebs) 15:27, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

It really isn't a reference. I'm the Duke Nukem expert on the wiki and duke says i got balls of steel not fists of steel. not really a reference. THE3STOOGES 22:08, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
