Today's patch fixed the [[War Paint]] icons appearing incorrectly on the Community Market and Steam inventories; so now you can get the new backpack icons up, right? -[[User:MarioMaster2008|MarioMaster2008]] ([[User talk:MarioMaster2008|talk]]) 22:56, 3 January 2018 (PST)

== New main Menu backgrounds and characters? ==
+
Hey Tark. So I noticed that when PhoneWave uploads map stamps it is giving them all the [[:Category:Cosmetic images|Cosmetic images category]] which seems to be a mistake. Also looks like the Taunt icons like the backpack icons are getting the Cosmetic images category instead of the Taunt images category. Figured I would let you know so you can look into it.

The [[Main menu|main menu]] article's section on backgrounds and characters hasn't been updated since 2015. Can you upload the Meet Your Match, Team Heavy vs. Team Pyro, Jungle Inferno and Scream Fortress 2017 backgrounds; as well as the Saxton Hale characters for both Jungle Inferno and Smissmas 2017, and the Thermal Thruster Pyro character? After that, we'd be caught up, I think. I would do it myself, but all the textures in the console folder of textures_dir are 1024x1024, and your uploads are of a different resolution than that, so I don't know where you get them. Thanks! -[[User:MarioMaster2008|MarioMaster2008]] ([[User talk:MarioMaster2008|talk]]) 02:42, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

So, previous to last night, the backpack icon in the Item infobox of [[Unfilled Fancy Spellbook]] displayed, instead, the [[:File:Backpack_Fancy_Spellbook.png|backpack icon]] of the filled [[Fancy Spellbook]].

A redirect ([[:File:Backpack Unfilled Fancy Spellbook.png]]) had been created way back then instead of an actual image -- I can only guess because no one at the time had captured the  imaged of the Unfilled Fancy Spellbook before they filled it.

Last night I managed to figure out how to get all of the translations of Unfilled Fancy Spellbook to display the correct Unfilled Fancy Spellbook image, even if it is not the properly formatted filename, without doing too much damage, I hope.

== Recent Tournament / Tip of the Hats Medal Names + Steam IDs ==
+
== Please delete my account ==
  
Hi there, it seems that WindBOT hasn't been properly cataloging names or Steam IDs tied to contributors for recent tournament or community medals. I've personally put the proper strings in the correct dictionaries some time ago, and the name strings in the tournament medal subsection of dictionary/items even have some translations, but they're not getting pushed to the pages. I tried pinging Wind about it through his discussion page, but he hasn't gotten back to me. Can you look into this? These are the items I know are currently effected:
+
I have reviewed the guidelines outlined in [[Help:Account deletion]] and would like to request the deletion of my account.
* [[Jaunty Explorer]]
 
* [[Jaunty Ranger]]
 
* [[Jaunty Mountaineer]]
 
* [[Tournament Medal - RGB LAN|RGB 3 LAN]]
 
* [[Tournament Medal - Brazil Fortress 6v6|Brazil Fortress]]
 
* [[Tournament Medal - ESEA 6s Invite|ESEA 6s Invite]]
 
* [[Tournament Medal - United Dodgeball League|United Dodgeball League]]
 
* [[Tournament Medal - TFNew 6v6 Newbie Cup|TFNew 6v6 Newbie Cup]]
 
I realize that we can use the Steamid template in a contributor field to link to a Steam profile in the meantime; however, I am worried about entering an item's name string myself, so I've asked you about it, after giving WindBOT ample time to properly enter it in itself. I was worried about adding name strings in myself, as the wiki warns you not to. Again, each medal is set up to receive the proper string, and the strings are listed in the items section of the dictionary. The only one to watch out for is that the Brazil Fortress medals use Portuguese strings by default, which are listed there correctly as well. Thanks for your time! -[[User:MarioMaster2008|MarioMaster2008]] ([[User talk:MarioMaster2008|talk]]) 05:15, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

== Potential Original Medals Template for Event Rewards ==
  
== I made a slight oopsie. ==
+
Briefly, Swood and I talked about cleaning up the Rewards of community Mann vs. Machine operation articles by removing the sections talking about which medals were reused, and whom they were contributed by, and moving that information to a box on the side (which would then leave the section itself free to focus on information about the current event's rewards. So I had the idea to create a new template that would showcase the medals which were being reused, separated by operation. (Or tournament, or what have you. It would be some degree of header input.)
  
I made some new user boxes, but I forgot to put User in front of their names. Here's the two boxes: [[Template:Halo MCC]] [[Template:Smash Palutena Main]] --[[File:User Dr. Scaphandre Golden Ghastly Gibus.png|30px|link=User talk:Dr. Scaphandre]] [[User:Dr. Scaphandre|<font color="FFDF00"><big>''Dr. Scaphandre''</big></font>]] 22:01, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
+
It would start with a larger header of '''Reused Medals:''' or something similar, and then list the events the original models were from as categories below that, with Steam Workshop links, where available. Optionally, we could also include contributors as a tooltip sort of thing, as hover text over the operation name. It would look something [https://i.imgur.com/5kknkkm.png like this,] though not exactly, you'll have to forgive my modified painted item template.

== [[Template:Backpack item]] ==
+
I would prefer it to have space for up to ''five operation categories'', and ''six arguments'' within each one, which would be medal names to input, in order to display images of them underneath their respective categories. It seems unlikely medals from more than five events, and more than six reused medals per event, would occur - so those numbers are largely future-proofing. It should be fairly easy, I would imagine, to assign a file to display, if given specific arguments.

: The decision is yours, but I'd argue that listing each contributor is more important than linking to the obligatory, empty Workshop submission. I think the current format is fine, personally.

: As for helping out, I'm currently busy with another project and can't commit much time right now. Apologies :/ — [[User:Tark|<span style="font-weight:bold;color: #5BC236">Tark</span>]] 20:19, 27 June 2025 (UTC)
  
Hello. I've checked Wiki Stats, and I noticed the new Top 10 Editors and Uploaders on the home page. But the values for Editors is only counting for Edits, and the value for Uploaders is only counting for new creations. I don't know, but would it be possible if it's Top 10 Contributors (so, for example, I go from 15,383 to 17,496), and Top 10 Uploaders to count all uploads (so I go from 2,588 to 5,055)? It's almost a half of uploads that I am missing, if we are counting all uploads.

Hey. I have a request for how "num=1" in Update history is displayed. In English, for example "September 25, 2014 Patch" adds 1 at the end to look like "September 25, 2014 Patch 1", but other languages don't use this formula, and the text is changed to look like "Update from 25 September 2014 1".

These are the perfect median values between the two Killstreaker colors displayed in [[:Template:Killstreak_color_table|the Killstreak color table]]. Killstreaker effects use these two colors alternating when spawning particles, causing them to perceptually blend together to around these same values.
  
== Tark, You contributed to development on korean pages! ==

Due to the inconsistent nature of how these colors are actually handled in-game and the fact that they may be perceptually different based on environment, weapon, effect, etc., you may also take some creative liberty with some of these to make sure they display nicely on the wiki itself.

If we were to do something for April Fools this year, which we very probably won't because there's no time and also no interest from the users apparently, we'd make a new page for it. The reason why it seems to be started in 2016 IIRC was because they tried to make the joke for april fool's 2016, but it ended up not happening; In 2019 there was renewed interest in doing something for April Fools so they did it reusing the page that was left over from 2016.

PhoneWave categories

Hey Tark. So I noticed that when PhoneWave uploads map stamps it is giving them all the Cosmetic images category which seems to be a mistake. Also looks like the Taunt icons like the backpack icons are getting the Cosmetic images category instead of the Taunt images category. Figured I would let you know so you can look into it.

Potential Original Medals Template for Event Rewards

Briefly, Swood and I talked about cleaning up the Rewards of community Mann vs. Machine operation articles by removing the sections talking about which medals were reused, and whom they were contributed by, and moving that information to a box on the side (which would then leave the section itself free to focus on information about the current event's rewards. So I had the idea to create a new template that would showcase the medals which were being reused, separated by operation. (Or tournament, or what have you. It would be some degree of header input.)

It would start with a larger header of Reused Medals: or something similar, and then list the events the original models were from as categories below that, with Steam Workshop links, where available. Optionally, we could also include contributors as a tooltip sort of thing, as hover text over the operation name. It would look something like this, though not exactly, you'll have to forgive my modified painted item template.

I would prefer it to have space for up to five operation categories, and six arguments within each one, which would be medal names to input, in order to display images of them underneath their respective categories. It seems unlikely medals from more than five events, and more than six reused medals per event, would occur - so those numbers are largely future-proofing. It should be fairly easy, I would imagine, to assign a file to display, if given specific arguments.

If the idea was seen through, the reward section would end up looking something like this, compared to what it is now, on my sandbox. What are your thoughts on a template like that? If you are in favour of the idea, do you think you might help me design it? — User ThatHatGuy Signature Icon.png 19:01, 27 June 2025 (UTC)

The decision is yours, but I'd argue that listing each contributor is more important than linking to the obligatory, empty Workshop submission. I think the current format is fine, personally.
As for helping out, I'm currently busy with another project and can't commit much time right now. Apologies :/ — Tark 20:19, 27 June 2025 (UTC)

Technical request

Hey. I have a request for how "num=1" in Update history is displayed. In English, for example "September 25, 2014 Patch" adds 1 at the end to look like "September 25, 2014 Patch 1", but other languages don't use this formula, and the text is changed to look like "Update from 25 September 2014 1". Is it possible to change it to look like "Update from 25 September 2014 Patch 1"? User Denied signature.jpg Denied (Talk) 12:31, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

Try adjusting "patch-date-num-fmt" Template:Dictionary/common_strings#patch_namesTark 15:35, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
Some guidance? I don't want to edit it too much with trials and errors. User Denied signature.jpg Denied (Talk) 18:53, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
{{patch name|7|14|2025|num=1}} → patch-num-fmt → July 14, 2025 Patch 1
Params: 1 = month (7), 2 = day (14), 3 = year (2025), 4 = num (1)
Example (pt-br): {{{4}}}ª atualização de {{{2}}} de {{lang date|{{{1}}}}} de {{{3}}} → "1ª atualização de 14 de julho de 2025"
{{patch name|7|14|2025|num=1|date=true}} → patch-date-num-fmt → July 14, 2025 (#1)
Params: 1 = month (7), 2 = day (14), 3 = year (2025), 4 = num (1)
Example (pt-br): {{{2}}} de {{lang date|{{{1}}}}} de {{{3}}} (nº {{{4}}}ª) → "14 de julho de 2025 (nº 1)"

Another request

Hi. I have another request. Is it possible to force a bot to capitalize names of War Paints? Bot already does it for Unusual effects, as in Polish they are not capitalized due to how they are displayed in-game, but they look correct on the Wiki while capitalized.

Dictionary Descriptions Template at Maximum Capacity

I can't add strings for the Bolted Barbecue medals' descriptions, because we've reached the end of the limit on that template. For now, I've elected to add the description strings to the article itself. What do you propose we do now, in terms of the template? — User ThatHatGuy Signature Icon.png 00:42, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

It's a known issue (c Template talk:Dictionary/descriptions). Possible short-term solutions are: remove medals and crates, merge duplicate entries or/and remove translations that are the same as the English text.
Medals are not a priority, so if any actual items have descriptions, please add them first instead of the medal descriptions. — Tark 01:16, 25 July 2025 (UTC)
So if medals are to be removed, what is to become of their description strings, both existing and in the future? Would we just have to put descriptions in the articles themselves? I can work with that, but we'd have to remember to apply whichever solution is chosen for medals retroactively, since there's a ton of them that currently rely on the description dictionary to display their strings. — User ThatHatGuy Signature Icon.png 09:07, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Killstreak CSS colors

Hi, once again asking for the killstreak CSS colors to be changed to the following:

Killstreak CSS colors
Agonizing Emerald - #85FF9C
Deadly Daffodil - #FFE165
Hot Rod - #FF93EC
Manndarin - #FF7B11
Mean Green - #D3FF3C
Team Shine (RED) - #FF4C49
Team Shine (BLU) - #4293F9
Villainous Violet - #9052FF

These are the perfect median values between the two Killstreaker colors displayed in the Killstreak color table. Killstreaker effects use these two colors alternating when spawning particles, causing them to perceptually blend together to around these same values.

Due to the inconsistent nature of how these colors are actually handled in-game and the fact that they may be perceptually different based on environment, weapon, effect, etc., you may also take some creative liberty with some of these to make sure they display nicely on the wiki itself.

Please let me know your thoughts. ~ Boba 22:59, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Wiki Stats down

Hello, I would just like to inform you that the WikiStats website is unavailable, whenever I click on it it says that it cannot be reached. I don't know if you are responsible for the website or know someone who is, but I saw you advertising it on your user page so I thought you might have something to do with it.
