While I was rummaging through the weapon files, when I looked at the Medigun file, it says that it deals 24 damage. But as you know already, it only HEALS. Should this be mentioned in the Trivia? [[User:AbeX300|AbeX300]] 18:26, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

::''From 10 to 15 seconds, this rate increases linearly from '''24''' up to a maximum of 72 health per second.'' Maybe you read it wrong? --[[User:Picard|Picard]] {{loc|de}} 18:35, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 
::: @Nineaxis If that's the case, why is there a mention on Jarate about it's 5-Damage? @Picard I suppose. I'll check it out by changing the "damage". [[User:AbeX300|AbeX300]] 18:38, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:::: Alright, I tested out on changing the damage. Apparently, it is the heal rate. Thanks Picard for telling me. [[User:AbeX300|AbeX300]] 18:42, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 
::::About the Jarate, why don't you try throwing it directly on an enemy, then check its health? -- [[User:Vi3trice|<font color=#771d6d>'''Vi3trice'''</font>]] {{adm}} <sub>([[User_talk:Vi3trice|talk]])</sub> 18:44, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:::::Errr, yeah. Normally, I would test it myself, but I crafted my only Jarate. -- [[User:Vi3trice|<font color=#771d6d>'''Vi3trice'''</font>]] {{adm}} <sub>([[User_talk:Vi3trice|talk]])</sub> 19:05, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

== Requested move ==
 
:{{c|note}}: A month has passed since the rename was proposed, however, it is clear that a consensus has not yet been reached. I'd ask that everyone who has participated in the discussion above re-evaluate their position before a final decision is made.

{{Quotation|'''Robin Walker''' on titles/weapon names|Looking at the in-game localization text, I can see we’re already inconsistent ourselves, so I don’t think it’s a big issue. I’d pick whichever one you want to go with, and call it that. If you get nitpickers complaining about it, add a note to the pages saying that the game itself is inconsistent.}}
 
 
 
'''Medigun vs Medi Gun'''
 
 
 
This one is probably more controversial than other move requests. In-game, in the backpack/inventory this weapon is referred to as the Medi Gun. However in the tips section it is referred to as a "medigun". This is an example of Valve being rather inconsistent. Should this page be moved to [[Medi Gun]]?
 
:{{C|Support}} I think we should go with what's official in-game, not what we think intuitively should be correct. -- [[User:Pilk|Pilk]] <sub>([[User talk:Pilk|talk]])</sub> 15:58, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Support}}: Probably short for "Medical gun" --[[User:Firestorm|<font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]] {{mod}} 16:01, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Support}}: We should match what is displayed in-game. -- [[User:Nineaxis|<span style="color:#FF8C00;font-weight:bold">Nineaxis</span>]] {{mod}} [[File:User Nineaxis sig duck.png|12px]] 16:43, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Support}} [http://www.tf2items.com/id/jlesamiz?time=1256873790 JL's Backpack] also says Medi Gun, so I think we should move it. --[[User:Picard|Picard]] {{loc|de}} 18:44, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Support}}: -[[User:Shine|<font color="#666666">'''Shine'''</font>]]&nbsp;({{mod}}) 01:08, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Neutral}}: While I think you guys are right, a change like this would be annoying because the community pretty much always calls it the "Medigun." -[[User:The Neotank|<font color="#FF8C00">'''The Neotank'''</font>]]&nbsp;({{mod}}<small> | [[User talk:The Neotank|Talk]]</small>) [[File:User The Neotank Signeotank.jpg]] 01:20, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Neutral}}: Am fine with either, just used to type Medigun. Oh well, bot can clean stuff up :3 </shameless plug> — [[User:WindPower|<span style="font-weight:bold;">Wind</span>]] {{adm}} 01:27, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Support}}: I don't see where Valve refers to it as the "Medigun" other than the names of its model and textures.--[[User:Nelson340|Nelson340]] 21:36, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Support}}: If the backpack uses two words, so should we.--[[User:Piemanmoo|Piemanmoo]] 19:20, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Support}}: per the reasons above. [[User:MK|MK]] 06:36, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Oppose}}: Medigun seems more tidy to me. You might as well just call it the Medic Gun if you're planning to go all the way.--[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]] 17:19, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Oppose}}: Like flamethrower, even though this is how it's written in the loadout menu, "medigun" is used almost exclusively everywhere else. [[User:Dragonsbrethren|Dragonsbrethren]] 20:44, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{C|Oppose}}: It's a medigun. It's a portmanteau of medic and gun. It no longer is a portmanteau when you have it as Medi Gun. Plus it looks odd. Here's another thought, what would gamers wanting to know more about the gun search for in Google? They'll search it like it appears in game, so to help SEO (and accessibility) ratings, just set it as Medigun. [[User:RogueDarkJedi|-- RogueDarkJedi]] 01:46, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
 
:: {{C}} It appears in-game as Medi Gun. Hence the discussion here. -- [[User:Nineaxis|<span style="color:#FF8C00;font-weight:bold">Nineaxis</span>]] {{mod}} [[File:User Nineaxis sig duck.png|12px]] 01:49, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

:{{c|comment}} Another week has passed...  I think it'd be best to drop the move suggestion and leave the article as is.  -[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]] 11:15, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
