Hello, Mikusch!

Welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Official Wiki!

Here are a few links to get you started:

  • If you're not too familiar with editing wikis, you might like to start with Help:Editing.
  • If you already are familiar with wikiediting, you might want to try Help:Style guide.
  • Recent Changes will let you see others' contributions as they happen.
    • To make Recent Changes more useful for all users, remember to provide an edit summary in the "Summary" field before you save your changes.
    • You can set the wiki to prompt you for a summary in your preferences.
  • When posting on an article's Talk page you should add four tilde symbols or ~~~~ onto the end.
    • This will add a signature and timestamp to your comment so others can easily tell who posted it.
    • Any new sections on an article's Talk page should be added to the bottom of the page and not to the top.
    • When editing normal article pages, don't sign your contributions.
    • You can use the Signature Icon.png button in the editing toolbar to quickly add a signature.
  • If you have any questions or need any help, please feel free to leave a message for a staff member.
  • If you have trouble with anything on the wiki or you're not sure about a specific topic, feel free to join the IRC.
  • You can also customize your user page if you like.
    • When uploading images for use on your user page, please add the prefix User Mikusch to the file's name.
    • Additionally, if you would like to add any self-made content to the wiki, please do so by adding the prefix User:Mikusch/ to the page title when you create the page.

Once again, welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Wiki!

Translating item links

Hey there, welcome to the wiki. When you translate a page and encounter a link to an item or something similar please use the {{item link}} template.
Example: [[Max's Severed Head/de|Max' Abgetrennter Kopf]] -> {{item name|Max's Severed Head}}
That way, you don't need to know/look up the german name of the item and if the STS decides to rename the item (happens from time to time) we can update a single entry in the so called dictionary and the new name will be applied to all german pages instead of editing each side manually.
Similar to the {{item link}} template {{item name|englishNameOfTheItem}} will show the german itemname (on a german page)
If you have any questions/trouble regarding templates etc. feel free to ask on my talk page or look for SackZement on the IRC User SackZement signature.gifSackZement <Talk> 16:06, 3 August 2014 (PDT)
