- 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.

- When editing normal article pages, don't sign your contributions.
- You can use the
button in the editing toolbar to quickly add a signature.

Slender Fortress
Sorry, but we aren't maintaining a page on the Slender mod for TF2, because there were issues in the past regarding notability, using unattributed (and possibly trademarked) content from other games, and general quality issues. It is discussed in length here. --

Your recent edits
Please refrain from making changes to pages that reduce the quality of the article. Your attempts to edit the List of game modes article have resulted in breaking the page, reducing the amount of information given to readers, and have been generally been detrimental. Please make sure you understand the style guide and other related links before committing changes to pages. -- LordKelvin 12:02, 28 December 2015 (PST)
User tag
When uploading images for use on your user page, please add the prefix User Maxorro10 to the file's name. — The preceding assigned comment was added by Tark {Finish Him! ▪ Contribs} 07:04, 29 December 2015 (PST)
Recent Edits (Again)
Heyo,
I'd like to point out a couple things here.
1. User page images, Please name the images properly using "User Maxorro10 <title here"
2. Your recent pages like the "Scout's life" page and the recently translated page. Please refrain from creating pages like that and when translating, please follow the translator guidelines. Also watch formatting as you keep breaking pages.
3. Keep in mind of the posts we make on your talk page, as we have given you a couple of warnings. If you are new, perhaps stick to some very basic edits first rather than making gibberish pages/breaking pages with formatting.

- Again I'll point this out.
1. "trade server" page is not needed. We don't need pages based off of types of servers. We had issues which lead to advertising, etc. So don't create pages like that.
2. Recent edit to the Co-Pilot page mainly the image is not needed. We already had an image in place which is better quality than what you had uploaded.
3. Again, if you need a comparison of what it right and what is not, Check the recent changes log and compare your edits to the edits of one of the regular editors such as myself or other users.

Well then i dont understand what i do, every time i try to do something its just not needed or not important. I just DONT understand it — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Maxorro10 (talk) • (contribs)
- Again, stick it to one page. Our general priority is the improvement of the current articles. Best way to start, try improving the recent update and cosmetic pages. Theres a start. whether that be grammar fixes, missing descriptions of the items etc. Again, if you don't understand we have discussion pages for a reason. Also the IRC is a great place for help. Assuming you jump on when our regulars are online. Ashes (talk) 07:44, 30 December 2015 (PST)

well then what about the wiki cap can i like change the picture to a better one or at least try? And if it dont look good ill take it off im going to upload the picture of the wiki cap in a bit. a better one though hopefully and then you can tell me if its good enough to be uploaded and changed
- Generally we don't update images that haven't been tagged for improvements. Current images we have so far are fine. Also all images must be done in HLMV (We have a guide on the wiki for it). In general, don't improve something that doesn't need it. Ashes (talk) 08:01, 30 December 2015 (PST)
oh coz like i was thinking if the wiki cap pic i made would be good to replace the original pic but you said it dont need reuploading so thats ok. Plus i dont know what i could do to help around the wiki beacouse like everything i do is breaking pages or just not needed. Maxorro10 (talk) 08:05, 30 December 2015 (PST)
- Again, the style guides and just reviewing other edits by our regular users is a great way to learn how to properly edit. The guides on the wiki are still a reliable source.
Also to point out, Tasks Page is a great start to figure out what to do as it has some minor tasks to start. Again you will have to find out what you really want to help the wiki out with. Like the Weapon Demonstrations project, 3d models of weapons etc...
Ashes (talk) 08:15, 30 December 2015 (PST)
- Please, do not overwrite or replace images that have not been marked as needing improvement, as you just tried with the War Pig and Wiki Cap. Your War Pig images were worse in quality than the existing images, and the Wiki Cap image did not need replacing at all. -- LordKelvin 13:50, 30 December 2015 (PST)
Question regarding translations
Question for you. I noticed you just did an edit on the /da side and on the /es side. Exactly how are you translating these...? Ashes (talk) 08:58, 30 December 2015 (PST)
I understand Spanish so the gun mettle one was really easy to do but the danish one i didnt mean to edit i just changed one word accidentally and saved it. So yeah... Maxorro10 (talk) 09:02, 30 December 2015 (PST)
I also understand czech, Italian and French beacouse first of all i have family from there and im learning french from french lessons. So there is anotherthing Maxorro10 (talk) 09:06, 30 December 2015 (PST)

- Gonna point out here. Translating pages, refer to the English page as the source and work off that title under the /es version. Ex. Mann vs. Machine is the main title, so Mann vs. Machine/es is what you would translate under. Not under Mann vs. machine/es, its going to be redirected instead Ashes (talk) 11:51, 30 December 2015 (PST)

But im kinda getting the hang on all this editing right? oh and what does it mean whern there is a like a +90 or a - 5,450 on my contributions. And what does one need to do to get a wiki cap? — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Maxorro10 (talk) • (contribs)
- The numbers indicate number of characters added or removed in the edit. We use it to keep track of how much an edit has changed the article it was made on.
- I have to warn you again, please do not make edits to articles that end up being detrimental. I understand that you're new to the Wiki, but right now you are causing trouble to other editors because your edits are not in the right namespaces, you're duplicating pages that already exist, and you still are not signing your talk page additions despite being asked to.
- With regards to the Wiki Cap, we have a page explaining it here. Put bluntly, getting a Wiki Cap requires many months (if not at least a full year) and at least hundreds (if not at least a thousand of positive Wiki-impacting contributions that really improve the quality of the Wiki. It isn't something that you can just get by adding a few things here and there. And even then, you have to be nominated by other users and voted on by the staff.
- The Wiki Cap is very hard to get, and for good reason. So if you've come here with the sole intention of trying to get the Wiki Cap, then I'm sorry to say it's going to be a very long time before it's possible. -- LordKelvin 12:16, 30 December 2015 (PST)
"Cleanup"
If a page is marked for cleanup, it goes into a category. Translators (in this case, Czech translators) peruse that category and will re-translate the page, keeping in mind whatever the reason for cleanup is. However, an outdated (but Czech) version of the page is preferable than the english version. Darkid (Talk | Contribs) 15:16, 30 December 2015 (PST)

Hello Maxorro10. I hear that you're very new and I wanted to know if you needed any guidence. --

Google Translator
I was reading the Gun Mettle Campaign/es page and noticed that your translations are of a really bad quality. They don`t make sense and lack coherence, plus you made lots of grammar errors. You even translated proper nouns. This tells us that you're using an automated translation tool, which are prohibited. Unown512 (talk) 12:32, 31 December 2015 (PST)
