Talk:Community fads
I believe this page should be a featured article because i found it very informational. Newbies might be confused when people talk about spycrabs and W+M1. I actually figured out the meaning of W+M1 on this page. Please make this a featured article.
I have a number of memes that I know that are worthy of mention here.

Future Additions
This page is pretty full, but it is still missing:
- Humping Sniper[1]
- HWM models in Garry's Mod (although this is probably part of a bigger Garry's Mod category) [2]
- Golden Machine Gun[3]
Are these possible additions? --Focusknock 11:43, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
On the russian page, there is a TF2 rick roll. Can someone stranslate that to english? - Mentlegen

I think painis cupcake is much more well known than the This is what I see with my eyes closed. If you doubt me, go to any micspam server and just listen in :). --Kurathedog 02:23, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
I don't heard about these memes except HWM models. I think that is better put the Christian Brutal Sniper. --Jagoba RL 17:23, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
I find it odd that while the page mentions the Odd Scout (which had three or four videos), Seeman and his lesser-known companion, Seeldier, aren't talked about. Wing Dairu 05:35, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- I never even heard of those (even though I don't spend my day watching TF2 gmod videos on youtube), so I'm inclined to say their popularity and notability isn't skyrocket high to include them in the "memes" article.

- I've heard of seeman, but never of seeldier nor odd scout. And I spend my days watching TF2 gmod videos. Still, odd scout has lots of views. Most seeman videos have far less. Lord Melchior 16:26, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

W+M1
"An infamous video showed a player experiencing success with the Pyro by only using the "W" key and "Mouse1" (Moving forward and primary fire). This led to the creation of the term W + M1,"
This is inaccurate. The term W+M1 existed way before the video (which dates from 2009), right about when TF2 started if I recall correctly. I'm editing this. Stabnrun 02:08, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Scout is delicious: Not well known?
Sorry, what? --Vaught 02:12, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
- Added it back already. Zoolooman 02:15, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
- Alrighty. Was just curious as why it wouldn't be well known when youtube is lit up with responses to it. No harm no foul! --Vaught 02:20, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
a whole LOAD of memes: should I add them all?
i know the whereabouts of a few seemingly million, do i give the link or add them all?
Cleanup tag?
Is there a need for it anymore, or should it just be removed now that the article has been cleaned up? Stab ! 17:05, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
Lines
Strange decision,deleting those horizontal lines.Looks ugly. {{subst:void|This template should always be substituted. Please change {{Unsigned}} to {{subst:Unsigned}}}}— The preceding unsigned comment was added by Condemned (talk) • (contribs) 20:18, 24 November 2010
- Uh.. no it doesn't? "nope.avi" and all the others that you added "lines" for are actually sub-"categories" of the main "Youtube memes" category, so they shouldn't be "promoted" like that just because it looks ugly... Stab ! 20:49, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
Demopan
I think this counts as a meme now but I don't know enough to add it. Guybrush20X6 23:30, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- Wait a couple months. If it's still around, it can be added. Bonzi77 09:02, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
Is a picture of Demopan. I believe it's currently a meme right now, but again, let us way a month. If it still continues, then we can call that a meme. A meme takes time. Wintergreen 00:39, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
Not to hijack this section, but speaking of other well-known memes, the Gentlementlemen series (including the other videos with that song, despite the realm of the meme extending far beyond TF2) is also be notable enough to be added, as well as possibly Polite/Crazed Sniper (though it seems they only have one video each). —烏Γ (kaw at me), 19:39, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
