Frontier Notice Create new pages for recent contents and updates, keeping the Wiki up to date.	VasyaTheWizard	Wikichievement unlocked! Surprised you don't have more than one wikichievement already. You've been tirelessly adding pages to newly added items, such as medals, with every patch that gets released (lately we've been getting new patches surprisingly often). You're basically the only person that knows how to has the willpower to create pages for new medals, tons of which get added every patch. And that's not all, you also went through the infoboxes on a ton of items and added the team-colored styles for them. Oh, and by the way, congratulations on 10,000 edits :)

Credit to Team Collaborate with other users on a project.	Faghetti	Wikichievement unlocked! If we do not count translating /da, then this project was the first 'big' project I partook in on the wiki and I must say that it was an ingenious idea you came up with and the wiki will forever be improved because of it. No more red links and copy pasted cookie-cutter-look-alike-season-56-medal pages. Not to speak of the way cleaner cosmetic NavBar design that followed. You did the wiki a huge favor and I thank you for letting me in on it, as it was a thorn in my side as well. Keep up the great work, buddy!

Prefixes are kewl

It's the Little Things... Provide a large amount of edits whose primary goals are to correct grammar, punctuation, etc.	VasyaTheWizard	Wikichievement unlocked! For going through many years worth of items, adding prefixes to articles where they were missed, all while going mostly unnoticed. You really should try joining the IRC sometimes, I'm sure it'd be fun :D

Moving images

Please don't move images when an item reuses an existing asset. You can make a redirect using the following: #REDIRECT [[:File:Existing filename]]. Thank you. — Tark lm(pt-br) 03:56, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

Oh, interesting. I didn't know we could just create redirects back, I'm sorry, I'll do that. -ThatHatGuy (talk) 11:12, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

Names of mission makers of operation Starched Silliness

I know it's very very late, but can you please ask the members of potato.tf or pineapple.tf (now moonlight.tf) for the name of authors of these missions? Yaroslav tv (talk) 18:22, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

Starched Silliness was Pineapple, I don't have a contact I can ask for that sort of information within that group, the way I did for Potato's MVM missions; so you'd be able to find out their names as well as I could. -ThatHatGuy (talk) 02:34, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello !

Thank you for correcting my mistake, I genuinely appreciate it. Moreover, I have an additional question- this way I can know, in future and similar occasions, how to properly handle the case.

Why are the medals from the Operation Peculiar Pandemonium removed from the table of Mooonlight MvM, if the operation is hosted by Moonlight, same as Operation Binary Blackout?

Thank you for your time <3 Yossef | Talk | Contributions 07:23, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

This is a special case. Moonlight MVM announced on their Discord that the Binary Blackout charity drive would continue past when Peculiar Pandemonium concluded. Though they've also announced about an hour ago that the Peculiar Pandemonium drive will also continue until the end of the month, as well. -ThatHatGuy (talk) 01:07, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

Got it! Thank you Yossef | Talk | Contributions 13:46, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! I really appreciate it, but I should mention, I'm not the one that does the painted variants for the potato.tf/Moonlight MVM medals. That's H20verdrive. I do the item icons though. -ThatHatGuy (talk) 14:47, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

The icons still good. - ▪ - 15:01, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

You did well!

200k image proposal

Hey That Hat Guy, can you review the image I did for your Heavy on Andrew360's page? Do let me know if you want something changed.
Thanks!

Luno 🎃 14:32, 20 October 2022 (UTC)

I like the pose, it's a good facial expression that meshes with the beard nicely -- don't change that, but I don't really like the Golden Pan like that, it feels unnatural. I'd have preferred something with the Top Shelf Minigun, like how it was in the 100K picture, but if that's unfeasible, I'd rather just have the pose on its own. — 00:10, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
