I can't help but feel that the hat is somewhat related to a famous Street Fighter character. (nanosheep_inc) 06:40, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
That hat is just like Bison's. I would put that on the trivia section. Mike Red 18:45, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
- It's a police cap. The M Bison similarity is a coincidence. – Smashman (talk) 21:56, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
It looks like a Dutch train-attendant's hat; with the railroad pin switched with a TF2 logo. FoOz 07:05, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
Personally, I'd say it resembles a common military officer's hat. --RedShocktrooper 18:49, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
Description suggestions
"Team fortress is an old, old wooden ship, used in the civil war era - Wikipedia" Munky 09:15, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
So while in the IRC, I started coming up with new descriptions suggestions. So far my favorite I have come up with is:
"War is but the sum of a merciless edit"
I may list a few more if I think of anything better... -- Benjamuffin 13:22, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
"All heroic virtues rest on truth." -- MistahFixIt 18:33, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
"Well, you found it. After editing all those pages. Congratulations. Was it worth it?"--Focusknock 18:36, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
"In recognition of your personnal lack of social life for the community knowledge". Well, not as fun as a GladOS reference or original as the WAR! for edit quote, but still, it's the use of this hat. Tturbo 18:43, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
"Changing the way you play, one edit at a time." Attempt at a simple one -- Benjamuffin 18:45, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
^ The GLaDOS one's a winner fo' shore. Also, "The truth is like an Ubered Heavy. You can shut it out for a while, but it ain't goin' away." -- MistahFixIt 18:48, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
"This hat may be stubby, but the articles sure ain't!" -- Benjamuffin 18:50, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
"Those who don this cap have accomplished the most edit-ifying deeds" -- Alsoodani 18:53, 4 October 2010 (UTC)Alsoodani
- or some other such sentence with edit-ifiying (pun on edit and edifying). Definition:Edifying-enlightening or uplifting so as to encourage intellectual or moral improvement [1] Isn't that what we do around here? Doing something enlightening to encourage intellectual improvement (in this case: Team Fortress 2 Knowledge)? :D What do you guys think of the quote? -- Alsoodani 18:53, 4 October 2010 (UTC)Alsoodani
- "{{c|cool}}"-RJ 19:01, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

"For the dedicated few who would rather spend their time writing about this game then playing it" or "[citation needed]" CaptMurasa 19:56, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
- I like those last two CaptMurasa -- Benjamuffin

What about...
"The enemy has been marked for deletion." -- OluapPlayer (t) 21:53, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
- I considered [citation needed] the other day. But I was thinking about naming my hat that. – Smashman (talk) 21:55, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
- Speaking of which, I read on the older Talk Page some were looking to change the name (The Recent Change was the best proposition so far), is it still an actual fact? Tturbo 23:33, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
- As I've been instructed, here are my ideas for the new Wiki Cap name: The Captributor, The Cap Lock or The (Wiki) Service Cap... But I prefer the first two personally... Tturbo 03:32, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

"A souvenir from the edit war of '09" - Ravedave 03:48, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

How about every Wiki Cap owner gets gifted a Name Tag and said owner has to come up with a unique name for his/her hat? — Wind 04:31, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

I revealed the inner workings of TF2, and all I got was this lousy hat. -The Neotank ( | Talk) 21:06, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
Comment These are all AWESOME. I'll submit a bunch to Robin and see if he likes them. Nice work guys, but keep it up! – Smashman (talk) 21:12, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
- Getting my quote description for the Wiki Cap evaluated by Robin himself?! Squeeeee! realizes what he just squealed, quickly tries to act normal * Ahem! * I mean, yes, indubitably! Jolly good. Alsoodani 21:54, 6 October 2010 (UTC) - Alsoodani
- Put special emphasis on mine, Smash. Mine! (cause it's cool) -RJ 21:55, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
- Agreed- Each here is awesome and witty in its own way. (now to wait for the almighty overlords at Valve to pick one!) -VintagePC 01:27, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
- Can we know the selected ones? I'm hoping for the "War! is merciless edit", the "Edit-fying", the "GladOS", and the "you know that they know......" ones, those are my personnal favorites (My good one, based on Fallout 3 was way too long XD). Tturbo 02:14, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
Addition?
Just wondering since I cannot edit this page, should it be added that "it is currently unknown how this hat is obtained"? Or have I just missed something? I have no idea. Zombie James 08:31, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
I think moders will change it -Mendel777 09:03, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
- If nobody has been awarded it, it stands to reason nobody knows how to get it.--Focusknock 09:06, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
