- Should unreleased items really be listed? Because then we'd need to include the Jag and all that stuff. --CruelCow (talk) 22:45, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- Technically, the Jag is still being planned to be released once attributes are applied to it. With that said, if it is added, would it remain in the timeline when its model was put in the game files, or when it was made obtainable?

119th Update
Mercenary , Soldier of Fortune and Grizzled Veteran were added. Later, in May 5, 2010 Patch, Primeval Warrior was added. Mozgoed 09:31, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
Mann-Co update
Since the "Team Sprit" tool is added, should all other tools + Mann Co. Supply Crate be added? BLUH 09:53, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
No thanks I originally created the page with just Weapons, Hats and Misc items. I expect democracy will win out and add Tools, etc. My only concern is the size of the page. So, i'll start the voting with a NO. But, wiki is for everyone, what do others think? (Please notice i have not undone the "teamspirit" entry before you cast stones) Nooch 17:07, 2 December 2010 (UTC)- Keep I was actually in the middle of adding the tools, like paint cans. They are technically items, I see no reason for their exclusion. The page is long as it is, a couple more items won't make a huge difference. —
Moussekateer·talk 17:10, 2 December 2010 (UTC) - Keep What Moussekateer said. Also, Golden Wrench that isn't even obtainable is there, i don't see why the tools can't be in, with name tags and stuff. --

Crit-A-Cola
CaC was actually added the day before the 119th update, in the April 28th patch. I'm not skilled enough in table modifications to fix it, but it should be fixed. Balladofwindfishes 18:53, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
- Done. Nooch 19:07, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Thoughts?--Kid Of The Century 16:44, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
Approve I would support this reorganization. For discussion, i'd prefer a variation slightly less complicated. Maybe just change Class field to Group field that could indicate either class or item type?

- Anyone else have opinions about these changes? Nooch 18:23, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- For better readability, I wouldn't mix the classes with Item type. Maybe the best thing is scrapping the Item Type info entirely, and use you last vesion.--Kid Of The Century 01:46, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
Do the first version with the item types, I like it a lot. seb26 [talk] 04:17, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
Killing Floor Promotion
Should the title of the Foster's Facade and Stockbroker's Scarf section be "Killing Floor Promotion" or whatnot, in the same vein as the Poker Night Promotional update that released the Dealer's Visor? --Fragment of Nothing 03:27, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Such as the above. It doesn't look very nice, especially since there's even a bullet point there with nothing following. Perhaps we could add "nothing" after the bullet? I also notice that some entries for promo items and the like have a small blurb relevant to it (e.g. "Added Bill's Hat for players who pre-ordered Left 4 Dead 2"), while others are blank, so I'll go through and add that kind of simple information to fill in some of the blanks.

- To be honest, I almost regret to have added facts not tied to items (maps, gamemodes). So, yes, feel free to update the notes with appropriate facts.--Kid Of The Century 17:38, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
"In total" section
I think it'd be cool to have an extra list in the 'Notes' cell for a summary of what was released in the particular update, like for example, the Sniper v. Spy update, it would look like this:
In total:
Obviously there's a point where it becomes stupid to list this for some of the smaller patches, however, for the larger ones that can be quite long I think a summary would suit. What do people think? seb26 [talk] 20:35, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
Stock Items
Seeing as they're the only items in the game that aren't included here, couldn't the stock weapons appear as well? They could have a short section at the beginning where they are grouped together, labeled "Stock Weapons", their release date would be "Initial Release" and we could be done with it?
