Hello, Jane Doe14!

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.

  • 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 Jane Doe14 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:Jane Doe14/ to the page title when you create the page.

Naming convention of files

Hi there,

I must ask you to please name your files properly before uploading them. Files that are solely intended for use on your user page should always be prefixed "User", followed by your username. An example of a proper filename would be: User Jane Doe14 example.png

This is already stated on the Upload page and help us distinguish between user-content and actual images, as well as to easily keep track of them, and it also means staff won't have to bother with renaming - or deleting such files.

On another note; please make use of the Show preview button when editing. It gives you a preview of the edit you are making, allowing you to perfect your changes before you save the page. It is rather redundant to edit a page multiple times when it could have been done in a single edit and also clogs up the IRC channel with unnecessary edits. Thanks . .

Thank you wooki pan for the corrections to some of my actions to thank you very much and we follow your advice to be an excellent user and contribute to the community :3 The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jane Doe14 (talk) • (contribs)
I understand that you are new here, but you need to pay more attention to the rules. Firstly, users should always try and keep discussions in one place, i.e. don't reply on other users' talk page if the entry is on a different talk page. This make it easier for other users to follow-up on the discussion, and thus not having to move back-and-forth between talk pages.
Secondly, please create a new topic instead of replying on pre-existing ones, using the Add topic button at the top of a page. Furthermore, please remember to sign your posts by using four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your message. This will automatically add your signature along with the time and date the message was posted.
If you have any questions, feel free to join the IRC . . Wookipan (talk | contribs) 15:47, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

Small issues with your translations

Hi there.

While I and many others thank you for your contributions to the wiki, there are some things you have been doing (or, rather, have not been doing) that need some attention. Don't worry, this is nothing serious, but it's still something that should be pointed out.

  • You have not been translating links. Although you translate things like "community-created" in [[Steam Workshop|community-created]], you forget to add "/es" after "Steam Workshop", causing the link to lead to the article in English instead. You have also been leaving links like [[Heavy]] completely untouched.
    • Links to Wikipedia articles can be a bit more annoying; while in some instances you can just add "es:" after the "w:" (example: adding "es:" to [[w:Arnold Schwarzenegger|Arnold Schwarzenegger]]), there are instances where the Wikipedia article has an entirely different title (example: instead of adding "es:" to [[w:Predator (film)|Predator]], you'd have to change it to [[w:es:Depredador (película)|Depredador]]). If you can't find a Wikipedia article in Spanish about the subject at hand, you can leave the link to the English article and add {{lang icon|en}} after it (which generates "(Inglés)" in articles in Spanish).
  • You have not been translating stuff in the infoboxes. While many infobox parameters are automatically translated, many aren't, such as team-colors-class#-name, item-kind, and, again, links such as the class an item is for and the update it was released in (such as Scream Fortress or Smissmas).
    • Note that I'm talking about the things that go after =, not before; if you see item-kind = Hat, you need to translate "Hat", not "item-kind".
  • And lastly, you have been forgetting to include the navigation boxes (e.g. {{HatNav}}) and the categories at the end of articles (which also require "/es" to be added to them, but don't require a translated text - i.e. you don't have to add "Objetos con estilos" after "Items with styles/es").

Once again, we do appreciate the work you have been doing, but it has been flawed.

I hope this helps. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. - BrazilianNut (talk) 02:19, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

ok, I'll take the necessary corrections.

-Thank you for letting me know, I thought they were unimportant things, now I realize my mistake. It will NOT happen again.

-Gracias por hacermelo saber, pense que eran cosas sin importancia, ahora me doy cuenta de mi error. NO volvera a pasar.
