About me

I'm like a train. I may not be all that interesting most of the time, but don't get in my way when I am steamrolling!
Hefaistus on his performances


Greetings, I am Hefaistus, one of the translators over at the Dutch side of the Wiki. At the moment, I'm all over the place, translating, fixing and updating Dutch articles. If you have any questions or need specific help with translating certain pages, leave a message behind on my Talk page and I'll get to it as soon as I got some time free.

One year of editting

On 1 October 2011, I have been on the Wiki for exactly one year. During that year:

  • I have made 1190 edits.
    • That is an average of 3.25 edits per day.
    • Only 2 of those edits have been reverted.
  • When I joined, not even all of the class pages had been translated to Dutch. At the time of this writing, the Dutch side of the Wiki has grown to 515 pages.
  • I have regularly steamrolled bad trivia additions, particularly a pesky theory surrounding Meet the Medic and Meet the Sandvich.
  • I earned 1 Wikichievement.
  • I have given the Dutch project page two overhauls, adding dozens of tips, hints and advice for new editors and the experienced alike.


  • I applied and was accepted as a translator on the Dutch STS.
    • There I have continued to fix dozens of translation errors, most notably the grammar issues concerning rarity names.
    • I discovered and actively helped repair a bug concerning the Mann Co. Shop tabs, where tabs would fall off the screen due to the length of the words in them.
    • I helped getting the last kinks out of the Steam Trading concerning translations before it got out of beta.
    • Several items and sets, such as the Postal Pummeler and the Airborne Armaments, got their Dutch names from me.


  • Of course a lot has happened in Team Fortress 2 as well.
    • My hat collection has grown extensively.
    • My backpack doubled in size; from 300 slots to 600.
    • Discovered the Vs. Saxton Hale Mod. And loving it.
    • I obtained a Strange Flaregun. Entirely for research purposes, of course.
