To find out who already owns one, see the list of Wiki Cap owners.

Wiki Caps are awarded to valuable contributors to the Official Team Fortress Wiki.

There are certain eligibility guidelines in place. While the hat is available as a reward to valuable editors, its main purpose is to provide incentive to editors to increase the quality and breadth of information on the Wiki. Thus, it requires some degree of effort on your part if you are interested in obtaining it.

Eligibility guidelines

Please note: These guidelines are in the process of being rewritten.

As a general guide, the current recipients share the following qualities. They:

  • Demonstrate a strong desire to help improve and update the Wiki through useful edits and contributions.
  • Participate in the community by contributing to discussion. We also have an IRC channel where you can get to know and become part of the regulars!
  • Adhere to the policies and practices of the Official Team Fortress Wiki, including observing the style guide and the official policies.
  • Properly implement licenses on images, sounds, and any other kinds of uploads, media or otherwise.
  • Are helpful, cooperative and community-minded attitude at all times.

Note that these are simply guidelines. There will be exceptions. If you feel you were overlooked by mistake, you can contact any of the people with green names in the recent changes feed and they can look into it.

Note to translators

The community values and appreciates your effort to translate articles. In order to maximize your contribution, please prioritize the articles you choose to translate. Articles linked to from the front page are usually the highest priority, while low traffic pages like patch notes are near the lowest. Spend the rest of your time working to improve the English version of the Wiki so you have great articles to share in your own language.
