List Festive items separately

I believe the Festive weapons should be listed separately from their non-festive counterparts. They are totally independent weapons (reskins) with unique defindex, names, descriptions, models, and attainability. They also have their own backpack icons that we would like to show on the wiki. For all intents and purposes, they're unique weapons. The only reason they don't have their own articles is because I haven't had time to make the articles yet. Thoughts? – fashnek (talk·c) 15:02, 16 December 2011 (PST)

As it is we're still trying to decide how to have the counter-type listed on this table - we don't want it to get too complicated. I think festive weapons can have their own table. It's basically a quality in its own right anyway; simply by explaining on the Festive page that festive weapons can be Strange ought to be enough. » Cooper Kid (blether) • (contreebs) 15:07, 16 December 2011 (PST)
