User talk:Eddo
Hello, Eddo!
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
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 Eddo 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:Eddo/ to the page title when you create the page.
Once again, welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Wiki!

Show Preview
Please make use of the Show preview button. It gives you a preview of the edit you are making, allowing you to perfect your changes before you save the page. You can edit the whole article by clicking the edit button at the top of the page, which is preferable to editing multiple sections consecutively.

The green numbers
Hi. The green numbers that you've asked represents how many bytes were changed on your edit. Numbers in green represents that you've added a X amount of bytes, while numbers in red represents the X amount of bytes you removed. What does bytes mean? It means how many characters you've added/removed on your edit (including spaces). So, if you do an edit that adds 10 more characters to the page, it will show up as "(+10)" on the Recent Changes. Hopefully this clarifies for you. ▪ - 14:14, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
- It's also important to know that, when making edits that is only a few bytes long, mark it as a "minor edit". If you are doing small changes, such as addition to punctuation, small grammar fixes, and stuff like that, it's recommended to mark as a "minor edit". Usually it's followed like this: If modifying stuff that is already on the page, mark as a minor edit. If new information is added to the page, don't mark as a minor edit. By the time, you'll get used to know when to mark as a minor edit or not. ▪ - 14:18, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
