== Discrepancy on Polycount Pin Release ==
 
 
 
Only eight people have Polycount Pins, yet seventy people entered the competition. Now on the page, it says twice that it was released, once before the 30th, and on the 30th, yet only eight people have them. The Polycount Pin page itself says the 30th... so which is it? Released before, released on, or not released yet? This needs to be fixed ASAP. --[[User:Skunk|Skunk]] 10:24, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:''June 28th, 2010 ...'' lists it as "revealed".  ''Mann-Conomy Update ...'' lists it as "released".  So the latter is when it was released. -[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 11:13, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

We could use them. You know, like the ones from other hat/misc pages, with a class wearing it making a pose and stuff. And here's a tip: stop using the Soldier for every page that has to do with an all-class item. Be more original and use classes like the Heavy, Medic or Demoman. -- [[User:OluapPlayer|<font color="red">'''OluapPlayer'''</font>]] <sub>([[User_talk:OluapPlayer|t]])</sub> {{adm}} [[File:User OluapPlayer Sig.png|Howdy, pardner!]] 00:47, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

== Misc Section on Class Pages==
 
Right now we have all class misc items listed with hats on the Class Pages, while on classes that have a class specific item (like Pyro), we have a whole section for the 1 item, but doesn't mention the classless ones. I made this quite MS Paint edit to show a slight change to the template I'd like to see [http://i53.tinypic.com/r072gn.png here]. Basically, I'd like to see all the Misc items grouped in the misc items section of the Class Articles, and not placed in the hats section like they currently are -- [[User:Balladofwindfishes|Balladofwindfishes]] 13:08, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Misc item template ==
 
 
 
I'm not very wiki savvy but is there a template for the misc items like the ones for hats? I'm asking this mainly for translating purposes.[[User:Hassun|Hassun]] 02:57, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

== Discrepency about unreleased items ==
 
 
 
There's been some back and forth on if the Mapper's Medallion should be listed on the Misc. Page or not.
 
 
 
My thinking is that, with other things such as the Dangeresque, Too? shades and the Portal Pin being listed, then there's no reason not to list the Medallion too; others say it is mis-leading and says that putting there indicates that the item has been released when it hasn't.
 
 
 
Maybe we could make a separate section on the listing items that are found in the game files but are not obtainable; I noticed there's a hat like that as well for Soldier, which I had no idea was in the game...and I wasn't even aware of the 'Unreleased' page of stuff here on the wiki itself. <small>--''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' [[User:The Lunatic25|The Lunatic25]] ([[User talk:The Lunatic25|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/The Lunatic25|contribs]]) </small>

:{{c|Oppose}}, I don't really like either design, sorry. #1 would be plagued by the same set of problems that [[Hats]] faced a while ago (would get too wide too easily), and #2 looks just messy.

I did another [[User:KillerKooK/Misc|Example]] table that uses a style that is on the Hats page. It still has the same problem of wasted space, but at least it keeps the same flow of the Hats page. [[User:KillerKooK|KillerKooK]] 03:11, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

== Page for Equip Regions? ==
 
 
 
Should we have a separate page for Equip Regions listing what they are and what misc items are what group in a list or table so people can quickly glance over the list and see what items are incompatible. It's just an issue I've seen people ask, "Can I use this item with this item" and while they can, in theory, just check the 2 item pages, it may be easier to us to make a quick page that is easy to scan.

== Halloween Miscs ==
 
 
 
There are 88 miscellaneous items currently, of which 20 are new Halloween items. So statistically, for a quarter of the year the Misc of the Month will be a Halloween item, which I don't think is a good idea. Does anyone else agree that all the Halloween items should be separated, and I can re-write the code so that they can only be chosen in October? It's a similar case for the Hat of the Month as well - there are a disproportionate amount of Halloween hats.

::I chose the Halloween ones because, as it's the biggest event on the TF2 calendar, it has the most event-themed hats. And, as SS2R said, they can only be worn a few times a month.
