The Team Fortress Wiki is the largest resource of information on Team Fortress 2 and Team Fortress Classic, edible by anyone.

This page is aimed at the newest users primarily, however, older users who don't edit frequently will find it handy also.

Introduction

As the TF Wiki is a community-edited resource, it is the responsibility of the community to update and add to its content.

Editing

Wiki formatting can be daunting at first, however, is easy to remember once picked up. Below is an example of standard wiki formatting:

This text is '''bold''' and this is ''italic''. This is a link: [[Rocket Launcher]]. [[Rocket Launcher|This is also a link]]. [http://www.google.com I am an external link].

And it displays as:

This text is bold and this is italic. This is a link: Rocket Launcher. This is also a link. I am an external link.
