:Hi there,
 
:The piece of Trivia is [[XofY]] trivia, which is not valid Trivia as you are comparing the % of players that have achieved said achievement to the other ones. This Trivia is also quick to be outdated, as other achievements can take that title away at any time.

HI,
 
 
I didn't know what an edit war was until a couple of hours ago; my main concern for the page was readability. I thank you for making the page more aligned with the wiki. I added some minor spacing that I thought you missed, if that's ok.

== Oops ==
 
 
You probably will need to fix the Saxton Hale health chart you made; for entry 25, I typoed 27000 as 29000. 27000 is the correct value and I have double-checked the rest of the values I entered to make sure there aren't any other errors. Probably a good thing you made that graph too, the weird spike that didn't match my chart made me check.
 
 
The chart in question is this one: https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/File:Saxton_Hale_health_chart.png

== Page prioritization ==
 
 
Greetings, again. I'm almost done with the preliminary work on game terms, titles, etc., and theoretically I can start doing at least something next week.
 
 
I remember in the FAQ that I recommend that translators focus their attention on the "''most important pages''" to start with - the main menu, the most visited pages, etc. And leave rarely visited pages for the very end.
 
 
Is there a list, a table, a ranking of the most important/most visited pages so that I can create a guideline? Thanks.
 
 
--[[User:FIRUIN|FIRUIN]] ([[User talk:FIRUIN|talk]]) 08:51, 27 July 2023 (UTC) FIRUIN
 
 
:I don't think there is one list of most important pages. The Dutch translation page has one that I generally would recommend to people, that being weapons first (Stock weapons -> achievement reward weapons -> other weapons), cosmetic items second (I would start with the newest cosmetics first), major updates, maps, achievement pages, small updates, then from there it's whatever.
 
:Also do note that you should use the {{code|tf_ukrainian.txt}} to find all the translations possible rather than making your own. We've had some discussion in the Staff channel and we're not entirely sure yet where these translations should go.<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=Wiki Cap]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) 10:10, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
 
 
::Thank you, yes, I remember about the correspondence of the names, thanks for reminding me about the existence of this file, I almost forgot. Ha ha.
 
::There's a little problem with the last items because they're not translated yet, so I'll leave them for later.
 
::And as for posting them, I'll probably post them from my page like User:FIRUIN/Sсout/uk. This way I can show what I can do and, if necessary, they can be simply copied and pasted as the official translation of the page. '''At least I think so, I haven't quite figured out the technical part of this wiki yet'''.
 
::In any case, it's better to spend more time preparing to meet the relevant standards.

Hi,
 
 
I wanted to translate your graph, but I saw your message.
 
Is it possible to translate with the following:
 
 
* "Saxton Hale's health" => "Santé de Saxton Hale"
 
* "Mercenaries" => "Mercenaires"
 
* "Saxton Hale health scaling" => "Santé de Saxton Hale par rapport au nombre de mercenaires"
 
 
Thank you!

== Translation progress poisoning ==
 
 
Hello Swood, as you know, each translation team has a '''[[Team_Fortress_Wiki:Translation_progress|translation progress table]]''' showing the work done on "main" categories. This is very useful because it is possible to compare between the '''[[Team_Fortress_Wiki:Translation_progress/Stats/fr|/fr]]''' and English categories and keep both synchronized; however, due to this nature, some categories end up holding "untranslatable" pages and such. I have previously discussed the topic with Mikado. This is one of the reasons why loc teams such as '''[[Team_Fortress_Wiki:Translation_progress/Stats/ru|/ru]]''' will never reach the 100% mark; some pages just cannot be translated and have no purpose being localized. Examples include {{code|Category:Official maps}}, {{code|Category:Images by map}}, {{code|Category:Custom maps unreleased stubs/lang}} and {{code|Category:Lists to be expanded}} (and probably more). The easy fix would just be to remove them from the main categories, but I thought it could be seen as vandalism in a way. Your input would be appreciated. Sometimes other problems may arise, such as a User space page or a Sandbox page that might end up in categories. I personally think they do not belong there unless it's a User space category.

== Types of translatable strings ==
 
 
Hello! I am currently translating some pages in romanian and based on the comments I recieved on my edits I'm trying to use {{}} type links rather than [[]] type links. However, in order to use these links I need to know where in the Template Dictionary the thing I am linking to is found. You told me about 'item link', 'update link', 'item name', 'item kind' and 'item description' so I was wondering if there was a list of all categories. For example I cannot add a 'Mannpower' link because the gamemode doesn't belong in those categories. I also wanted to thank you for helping me learn about the translation guidelines! --[[User:Lord of Dominating|Lord of Dominating]] ([[User talk:Lord of Dominating|talk]]) 16:27, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
 
 
:It should be visible on the actual template page, for example {{tl|item name}}. If you edit this page, it shows "dictionary/items/" in the code, that is where they are located. This should work for every template. If not, feel free to ask here which ones.
 
:That I know of, item link/name uses [[Template:Dictionary/items]], {{tl|Map link}}/{{tl|Map name}} uses [[Template:Dictionary/common strings#map names]], and {{tl|Common string}} uses [[Template:Dictionary/common strings]].

This is the patch in question: 'Added/Refined recoil/draw/crit/reload forces for the Persian Persuader.' Was the strenght of this weapon's knockback increased or was the animation changed?

::I'd say its animation, I doubt volvo would have increased knockback force without listing it somewhere in the stats, unless by some weird spaghetti code the knockback force was nerfed somehow.

Hi! I am currently working on a LUT for itemboxes because I am currently reworking all the german pages because they are outdated. Long-story short I see how active you are and that you are also a semi-retired dutch translator.

:These are all correct except Mk.I and Mk.II, the K isn't capitalised. Also note that "verfeestelijkte" is only used if there's an item name after it (e.g. "verfeestelijkte knuppel" meaning festivized bat, there are some exceptions to this though), otherwise "verfeestelijkt" is used. "Roestige" is also not used for every item, the Sniper Rifle and Knife being the 2 exceptions (as well as generic "rust botkiller" translation). I noticed that on your Soda Popper edit, the "verfeestelijkte" should be "verfeestelijkt" as there is no item name after it.<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=Wiki Cap]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) 10:31, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

== About the store payment premium method ==
 
 
I forgot to write it in the edit summary, but since the Mann Co. Store also includes the listings of SCM items such as cosmetic and warpaint cases, some players assume that this is still considered buying from the store. This also includes the fact that they are often told to buy the cheapest item, as we know most items bought from the store isn't exactly worth the money spent. Yes, SCM items have the "On Market" tag and "View on Market" button, but I still think this issue occurs enough times to mention this. - [[User:ZappyTwo|ZappyTwo]] ([[User talk:ZappyTwo|talk]]) 16:36, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

I noticed while creating a page for the Fireproof Secret Diary that the item table template translates the "Drop" description in the availability section in Russian on Romanian articles.

Hey! I saw your changes, and I feel like I failed to properly articulate what I was TRYING to say, so I will write here what I was trying to say so you could write it down for me in a clearer manner. What I was trying to get to with when I was mentioning the Beggars was the fact that with the Beggars, you can shoot rockets at the same rate as stock without having to reload, due to the Beggar's drawing from the reserve ammo. As such, it is perfect for those situation where you need a rocket at all times, which is almost every moment in ZI.

== Confusing copyright text ==
 
Hello there.<br>
 
My recent edits are intended to clarify the confusion that the copyright texts pertaining to "media" and "screenshot" cause.<br>
 
For instance, see [[User:Tiagoquix/Sandbox]].<br>
 
Here we have "ExtractTF2" and "ScreenshotTF2".<br>
 
With "ExtractTF2", I think the average reader would infer that the image/video is extract directly from the game files.<br>
 
And, with "ScreenshotTF2", the average reader would infer it was done by a community member.<br>
 
The problem here is that there isn't actually a category that explicitly mentions "video".<br>
 
But I imagine that reverting just my last edit is enough, while the rest remains OK in their current form.<br/>[[User:Tiagoquix|<font color="#1e90ff">Tiagoquix</font>]] ([[User talk:Tiagoquix|<font color="#19c819">talk</font>]]) 23:13, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
 
 
:That's odd, because media should not necessarily mean extract. I was under the impression this was for a Valve-related box anyways, not TF2 (due to the name). Feel free to revert, although I don't believe it's entirely necessary because there are very rarely any GIFs made from in-game content (the other ones are ArtworkTF2 because they're Workshop images). Also be careful with putting stuff like those licenses on your User space pages, as they do include categories which should not be on User space.<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 23:18, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
 
 
== A bit demoralized  ==
 
 
I'll be honest, sometimes it seems the rules are a bit too tight. I understand and very much appreciate that TF2 Wiki holds itself to a high quality standard compared to other fan wikis. especially when you consider the number of kids that flood this game, particularly years ago. I imagine that otherwise, a looser ship would be filled with illegible speculation and hogwash. However,with the [[Roar O War]] for instance, that beta names not fitting Trivia is an example ''at this point of TF2's life'' is just a tad excessive to where it stifles the mission of the Wiki. When was the last time we had Valve-made content? All we have left of nitty gritty stuff that IS allowed is scraping the barrel. And again, in context of this game and what's been studied to death and what Valve is doing (or isn't doing, I should say, it tempts me to ask myself what I'm doing sometimes. I was never adept at much "hard STEM" matters like tedious coding. I've always been more on the artistic side and I love this game to death, but with current conditions, for someone who likes and is soothed by editing this wiki, there just isn't much meat on the bone to pick. It's not exactly fun to flesh out community event pages from years ago either that i guess only a few people not involved in this wiki will ever read. At least item pages have a hypothetical stream of newcomers to be helped by new content. Forgive the tangent please, but I got it off my chest. Increasingly it just seems like the current state of the Wiki feels outdated to the reality of the game, and that hinders the editor experience, if not discouraging of others.

:: Barring any surprises or miracles, there seems to be a consensus among fans that Valve's plan the past few years and going forward is to have Halloween and Smissmas community updates, with maybe a Summer Update too, and sparse bugfixes inbetween. All community, with Eric Smith and 1-2 contractors to keep the lights on and duct-tape the leaky holes. TF2 post-Jungle Inferno is a de facto Community game, and I think the Wiki should try to realize this at some point, because Valve is Valve.--[[File:Leaderboard class allclass.png|15px|link=]] [[User:Akolyth|<span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Trebuchet MS">'''Akolyth'''</span>]] ([[User_talk:Akolyth|talk]]) 20:34, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
 
 
:::I think the issue with pre-release Trivia was mostly that it was to stop Trivia like "this cosmetic was uploaded together with x cosmetic as a set" (assuming the other cosmetic didn't get in the game). Another point of concern may have been that usually item creators are a lot less professional than Valve, there are still times where a Workshop creator can be found intentionally wanting false Trivia uploaded to the Wiki by lying to people who ask about it, so it may have been to stop that.
 
:::Another possibility is that it's simply a broad ban because of several types of Trivia that fell under the "pre-release" Trivia umbrella and they decided to just ban all of it rather than have to make a case-by-case judgement, similarly to XofY trivia.<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 21:07, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
 
 
::::The problem regarding Workshop-trivia was ultimately because creators are free to put any names and descriptions on their items, including names that Valve are unable to accept due to copyright reasons or other reasons. We also had a couple items in the past that had way too many trivia bullet points on their articles, all related to information that was only found in the Workshop page, and not in the actual game, which is what most players are going to "see" the item, and what it ultimately feels more "official", at least to me... which leads to my last point. The Workshop-trivia are solely found on the Workshop's item page, and NOT in TF2-itself, in-game, when you are playing TF2. In the "actual game" can represent:
 
::::* A hidden thing on the texture (even if it's not actually visible in-game, because the texture got accepted to the game);
 
::::* An unused content that managed to get into the game files, and had a meaning behind (like the [[Bonesaw (map)]] unused axe). This wouldn't fall as "Trivia", but it's still information on the article itself;
 
::::* The name itself (if the reference is confirmed by the creators and isn't a name modification made by Valve);
 
::::* The description (if there's any).
 
::::I was the person who came forward regarding these types of trivia and if they should really be on the pages, then, after some discussion, it was decided that no future ones should be added and existing ones should be removed. Nowadays, I'm also unsure in regards to additions of Workshop thumbnails, because it can fall under the same problem. I was also the person who uploaded a lot of missing Workshop thumbnails back in the day, but that was mostly because several items already had workshop thumbnails on their pages. It was a matter of "it was something done before so let's continue doing it, for consistency's sake", but if those should be removed (after a proper discussion is made), that's fine by me. Workshop thumbnails can, however, show animated previews of some items, like the [[Flatliner]], so it's not always a problem, and so far, we haven't had really problematic Workshop thumbnails.

:::::Workshop Trivia itself would still not be allowed, as it's not about the item but about the Workshop page. Any information on the development of the item itself (e.g. "this cosmetic was going to feature a headset but was cut due to time restraints" or "this item was originally planned to be for x") would be valid Trivia if this rule was removed. Trivia about the Workshop page would fall under 2 rules basically, one that bans Trivia that's unrelated to the item (in this case, it would be about the Workshop) and one that specifically bans Trivia about the Workshop page (I mostly added this as the first one didn't seem to very clearly convey this and ppl would still add publicity blurb or Workshop thumbnail Trivia).<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 22:06, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
 
::::::Gabriel, do you think ultimately that such rules should be tweaked in light of the state of the game in the past years? I want the best for the wiki and I admire a professional appearance, and I know there's a lot of work that isn't about "interesting" stuff and old neglected articles to care for, but sometimes it really feels like there are articles that are bare-bones where they shouldn't be (to that extent).

:::::::An example I just saw: [[Cyborg Stunt Helmet]]. In the description, it references "Famous robot actor Kirk RoboDouglas". Under current Trivia rules, while this reference is so obvious it isn't even obvious because it's literally the name of the Golden Age Hollywood actor with a prefix (also see "Hall of RoboPresidents" at [[Strontium Stove Pipe]]), I have to go and ask Zipfinator, Gadget or Square, if this is a reference to that actor, when they often don't even open comments or take friend requests. It's a gamble every time. And I'm going to ''look like a lunatic'' if I ask "is Kirk RoboDouglas really Kirk Douglas"? And to my knowledge, Valve wrote these corny descriptions anyway for this early 2010s period, and there's no way Eric Smith, the only real active dev, is gonna waste his less-than-minimal time answering my trivia emails either. So in effect, what happens is that ESL and other Wiki readers are deprived of knowledge, and articles are more bare for no reason except these archaic rules that haven't gotten the memo Valve treats one of the most iconic series in gaming like an orphan locked in the basement. I've tried for ages to look from all angles and I still strongly believe something needs to be changed for the better. It's not 2014 anymore, as much as I wish it was. :( I just want things to flourish, organized but still vibrant.--[[File:Leaderboard class allclass.png|15px|link=]] [[User:Akolyth|<span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Trebuchet MS">'''Akolyth'''</span>]] ([[User_talk:Akolyth|talk]]) 03:57, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
 
 
{{Outdent|7}}I linked a discussion above about the Workshop trivia. About the references, though, if it's some like "Kirk RoboDouglas" it's literally the guy's name. It wouldn't need confirmation, because it's not "obvious" it's straight up just the guy's name. Unless there are like 5+ actors with the same name, you wouldn't need Trivia for that. Hall of RoboPresidents is a lot less obvious to me, it is the name of an attraction irl but it also sounds like a very generic place where you can see all US presidents (similarly to "hall of fame"). There are plenty of examples where stuff that was so obvious turned out not to be obvious. Big example, so many people called the [[Shortness Of Breath]] an Opposing Force reference, which it turned out not to be. Many people called the [[Fire Fighter]] a reference to Ryu from Street Fighter, which it turned out not to be. The [[TF2Maps 72hr Jam]] 2018 medal design obviously looks like the Shine sprites from Super Mario Sunshine, yet it's not a reference. The [[Safety Stripes]] and [[Firearm Protector]] were apparently obvious references to Final Combat, but it turned out they weren't. These rules weren't made in 2014, these were established ~3-4 years ago to prevent false Trivia from being added (this was a complaint often seen made by Workshop creators). It's impossible to distinguish something being "obvious", so these rules are here to stay, no matter how unfortunate that might be.<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 12:45, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
 
:Akolyth, the problem is that, we either apply to the rules to all pages, or we don't apply any rules at all (the former is what we are doing right now). Having a few pages where this rule isn't applied feels very arbitrary. Some pages just won't have that many trivia because there's simply no trivia about them. Adding information just for the sake to keep the pages more populated isn't the ideal way. Not every item's look is a pop culture reference or reference to another media, and despite that we can't really get in contact with Valve regarding their items, we at least can try with Workshop creators. This can be a good thing, because often there's fan-wikis out there with piles or piles of uninteresting trivia (many of them have [[XofY]] types of trivia). I have asked politely to a lot of creators where they confirmed whether or not a trivia was valid, or asking the purpose behind an unused content ([[Bonesaw (map)]]) or hidden polygon ([[Der Wintermantel]]). Sometimes it may take a while, but I did get responses from the majority of them, including Square. And, speaking of which, regarding what Swood said, another classic example is the [[Death Stare]], we had a lot of people adding trivia information that the item was 100% a reference to Sir Daniel Fortesque from MediEvil, even adding images to the Gallery section with a Daniel render, but as it turns out, after I asked Square about it, the item was not designed around this character, it was a mix of a knight with a pirate theme.

::Thank you both for the thoughtful replies, I really appreciate it~ My qualm admittedly wasn't with the "apparently obvious" rule per se, so much as it was stuff like beta community content for Trivia. With my example, I thought it wasn't something that could even be considered obvious, because it seemed like a plain statement rather than being "cheeky", I guess would be a useful term. But I know at that point things can become both subjective and redundant. And obrigado to Gabriel for the hopeful bit emphasizing patience with creators, because I have a habit of doubting myself a lot and not wanting to be an annoyance etc. and some users have seemed less open than others.--[[File:Leaderboard class allclass.png|15px|link=]] [[User:Akolyth|<span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Trebuchet MS">'''Akolyth'''</span>]] ([[User_talk:Akolyth|talk]]) 05:26, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
 
 
== Engineer ==
 
 
Even though he's considered a defensive class by the game, I've also read and heard people over the years consider him more of a Support role (both in public and some comp settings). Whether that holds truth or not, I'm guessing that the original intent is what must be stuck to in style.--[[File:Leaderboard class allclass.png|15px|link=]] [[User:Akolyth|<span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Trebuchet MS">'''Akolyth'''</span>]] ([[User_talk:Akolyth|talk]]) 22:07, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
 
 
:With the exception of the Mini-Sentry, Engineer is pretty much a defensive class with support capabilities. Regardless of this, as long as the game classifies Engineer as a defence class we should too. Though this only applies to places where we talk about the class in general (for example, you can say Engineer can be good at offense, but you shouldn't say "Engineer is an offensive class").<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 22:15, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

== Typos ==
 
 
Today you moved a note about Halloween spells to Bugs. Is there a distinction here or did you change your mind, because in the past you've always been content with leaving errors in item description marked as if they're neutral phenomena. For example the [[Napper's Respite]] (but that's a capitalization error not a typo). I know it's all splitting hairs but... I guess it's something I can do. What is the differnce?--[[File:Leaderboard class allclass.png|15px|link=]] [[User:Akolyth|<span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: Trebuchet MS">'''Akolyth'''</span>]] ([[User_talk:Akolyth|talk]]) 18:30, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
 
 
:I think I may have overlooked it then. I think for typos in descriptions and such it should be in bugs, whereas the misspellings of non-English words (or quasi-language words) should be in Trivia. The distinction here (in my opinion) is that non-English spelling mistakes are more Trivia, while English ones are "bugs".<br>[[File:BLU Wiki Cap.png|20px|link=List of Wiki Cap owners]] | [[Help:Group rights|<span style="color:green;font-family:TF2 Build;">s</span>]] | [[User:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">GrampaSwood</font>]] [[File:PraisetheSun.png|20px|alt=Praise the Sun!]] ([[User talk:GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">talk</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/GrampaSwood|<font color="DB9C1F">contribs</font>]]) 18:52, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
