Earn a wiki cap

Wikichievement for contributors to TFC articles

I have no ideas for pictures, names or descriptions now, but it makes sense that we provide an incentive for people to work on TFC articles. ~ lhavelund (talkcontrib) 01:48, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Something like: "The Classy-c Editor : Edit and Update the Team Fortress Classic part of the Wiki" Killicon ambassadorhs unused.png Tturbo (T/C) 16:01, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Haxtinguisher

Pyrotechnics.png

The Haxtinguisher
For careful watching and removing hax pages (such as autotranslated pages).

With the last incident of someone having used Google Translate, I notice how hard it was to track down the pages and delete them... So an idea for rewarding this work. Killicon ambassadorhs unused.png Tturbo (T/C) 16:01, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I like dis new chievement. — Wind 00:30, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Template Blacksmith

Template Blacksmith
For making many approvable, good and funny userboxes for the TF Wiki.

I made this one because it would be good for the userbox makers since theres no achievement for making these and alot of the users (including myself) likes to sprite up their userpages. I have another one in mind, but I dont wanna bring it up before you guys are agreed to this Wikichievement. The Noble Scout R9t4 20:22, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

The Userboxes are a very minor part of a purely aesthetic part of the Wiki. They are hardly worth a Wikichievement (Even though I would get about four of this one right now for my userboxes) --User Firestorm Flame.png Firestorm 02:21, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
Remember Firestorm that i said userboxes. Which mean no one knows how many userboxes it needs to be, so it means that it must be alot of them. The Noble Scout 17:30, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
These sort of wikichievements shouldn't be encouraged. Creating tons of userboxes doesn't benefit or improve the actual wiki in any way. It's nice to decorate your userpage with them, but we'd much rather spend your time contributing to the wiki instead of creating countless arbitrary userboxes. Sorry :( User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 17:37, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
Well, then i'll make a better suggestion later since this one was abit of a failure :S The Noble Scout 18:19, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Painful Karma

Second degree burn.png

Painful Karma
Create an article that some will like & some will dislike.

I made this one to test a series based on grouping. As in making an article criticized by 2 groups. The first group liking/praising the article, and the second group... eh, not so much. If you don't understand, then basically imagine making an article about a recent TF2 edition. 30 people so far view the article. 15 of them like it and 15 of them don't like it. But more people will probably dislike this Wikichievement than like it :P The Great Irish Warload 00:45, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

What is this rewarding? Making an article that splits the community or that isn't worth editing? Not a good Wikichievement at all. --User Firestorm Flame.png Firestorm 02:21, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
So I guess I was right about this receiving more hate then like :/ The Great Irish Warload 03:14, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
Too easy to get, just making one like Benjamuffin did with Demopan and you are done. The Noble Scout 17:25, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Hot Contribution

Makin' bacon.png

Hot Contribution
Create a article on a new released item before any other user does it.

The thing about this little wikichievement must be on english to make it a competition between the users who makes articles to the TF Wiki. Its a good idea i thought, but i need your meanings and to achieve this it must be either a new item or map etc.... or just what the description says. The Noble Scout 13:42, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

There's already the Frontier Notice Wikichievement that does that if I remember the description correctly. Killicon ambassadorhs unused.png Tturbo (T/C) 15:07, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, true... Killicon grand slam.png The Noble Scout (T/C) 21:12, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
This would just encourage users to spam and make a useless page. The Wikichievements should not generally have solid requirements or it will emphasize spamming and not being userful. Also, to both of you, please reduce the size of your signatures, there's no reason for them to take up so much room --User Firestorm Flame.png Firestorm 21:37, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Indirect Helper

Tf sniper not a crazed gunman dad.png

Indirect Helper
Help other users to improve the Team Fortress Wiki with constant tips and coordination.

For those who'd rather help other users and teach them how they can contribute positively to the Wiki. The title/text may not be clear, so those can be modified later.  –  Duel RED.png Epic Eric Duel BLU.png (T | C) 00:06, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

I Like this wikichievement, something that Recruiter doesn't count. But another name would make it even more awesome. Killicon ambassadorhs unused.png Tturbo (T/C) 01:23, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I'd guess so. I had no ideas at the moment. Name suggestions are welcomed!  –  Duel RED.png Epic Eric Duel BLU.png (T | C) 21:19, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

What about:

Helping Hand
Help other users to improve the Team Fortress Wiki with constant tips and coordination.

 –  Duel RED.png Epic Eric Duel BLU.png (T | C) 18:07, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Better... Get other staff approval and it could be added. Killicon ambassadorhs unused.png Tturbo (T/C) 21:42, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
Pictogram plus.png Support Is good, I fixed a typo in the suggestion too. --User Firestorm Flame.png Firestorm 02:25, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Pictogram plus.png Support Totally support this. What good is a new user if they have no idea what they are doing. --Stevoisiak 23:14, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
Pictogram plus.png Support I approve of indirect helping. As Stevoisiak said, it isn't very good when a new user doesn't know what to do.  – User Ohyeahcrucz Sig.png Ohyeahcrucz [T][C] 00:11, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Generous Giver

Icing on the Cake.png

Generous Giver
For giving out multiple weapons, hats, tools, or even games, to members of the Wiki who are in need of them.

I'm not sure about the description. But this could be useful for those who'd like to give out things. GeminiViRiS User GeminiViRiS Doubleface.jpg Talk · Contribs 23:13, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

I don't see how this is related with the Wiki.  –  Duel RED.png Epic Eric Duel BLU.png (T | C) 23:27, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
I want this to be real.... I give away stuff all the time, lol --Stevoisiak 02:15, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Me too, there are some wiki users that really deserve it  – Awesome.png Ohyeahcrucz[T][C] 02:17, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
I agree with EpicEric. If there were achievements for general purposes, this would be worthy. Alas, these are wikiachievements, and strictly wiki related. --Nihilus0Backpack Lugermorph.png(contribs) 02:19, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Pictogram minus.png Oppose I see no purpose in this. It's not contributing to the Wiki to give away stuff --User Firestorm Flame.png Firestorm 02:26, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Pictogram nope.png Nope Why doing that, it will be very generous by others to get and give stuff, but how can you relate Wiki workers to this one, GeminiViRiS? Stunned.png The Noble Scout (T/C) 08:15, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
Yes, yes, silly me for not making an achievement not relating to the Wiki. But I thought I'd throw an idea out here for the community of the Wiki. See, in the IRC chat, some folks are clamoring that they don't have "X" game for pack "Y". Whether they're cheap or can't afford it, it's always nice to give rather than receive. —GeminiViRiS User GeminiViRiS Doubleface.jpg Talk · Contribs

Question

How do you determine who deserved achievement, and who's not?--User Kost 2.jpg  ( T|C) 07:41, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

Please improve the "who deserved achievement" part and I might be able to answer your question. The Great Irish Warload 03:46, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Special Field Editer

Circle the wagons.jpg

Special Field Editer
Been active in one special section in the Wiki.

Well, since ive failed in my other Wikichievement stuff, maybe i should contribute this one; the point in this was to be to the editors who works in a spesific section all the time. Take me for example. Im working mostly on the Hats section on the Norwegian Wiki Part. Its just an idea and i dont think it would be any good but at leaset worth a shot.

The flight from darkness to light

What about:

User-user Nik9990 Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar.png

The flight from darkness to light
For your constant readiness to help, patience, tact and tolerance to beginners. Firmness and consistency in defending the rules of TF2 Wiki.

--Nik9990 Talk | Cont 14:04, 27 July 2011 (PDT)

The biggest wikichievement ever. So Pictogram plus.png Support - Grand-O-Rand Painted Détective Noir 694D3A.png · (Talk) 14:06, 27 July 2011 (PDT)
Pictogram comment.png Comment Seems really broad. Might be best to split it into two. One for helping beginners, one for defending the rules. --User Firestorm Flame.png Firestorm 16:09, 1 August 2011 (PDT)

Some wikichievements I came up with

Dance dance immolation.png

The Trivia Remover
For those who spent there time taking out bad and pointless trivia.

I know it's a bad name for it but I'm horrible at naming things.
Anyway I've seen people removing those pointless trivia in the recent log all the time so I made this. If that isn't good I made another one.
64px

Article Dominatior
For those who spent there time cleaning up article making it smooth to read.

Again bad with the naming but award to those who cleaned up article making it easy to read. Painted Batter's Helmet C36C2D.pngViolencejr123 21:52, 2 August 2011 (PDT)

Pictogram plus.png Support I like them, but do you think we could somehow combine the two? To me, they're both about cleaning up the pages, just more specific. User M-NINJA Signature.png 21:55, 2 August 2011 (PDT)
Hmm I will see. Painted Batter's Helmet C36C2D.pngViolencejr123 21:58, 2 August 2011 (PDT)

Article Dominatior
For those who spent there time cleaning up articles to the point were it's smooth and easy to read.

Well I was thinking of just keeping this one since taking out trivia is cleaning up an article like you said. Painted Batter's Helmet C36C2D.pngViolencejr123 08:41, 3 August 2011 (PDT)
Pictogram plus.png Still Support I like it. I just have one last suggestion, maybe the use scout achievement "Round tripper" icon? User M-NINJA Signature.png 15:31, 3 August 2011 (PDT)
Done. Painted Batter's Helmet C36C2D.pngViolencejr123 15:36, 3 August 2011 (PDT)

My wiki achievement

Can I put "code" on my own talk page? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Qror (talk)

No. It's supposed to be awarded to others, not yourself.  –  Duel RED.png Epic Eric Duel BLU.png (T | C) 18:40, 11 August 2011 (PDT)

It Ain't Rocket Science
Walk someone through a tutorial.

Reword description if you want. I basically want this to be for those who end up providing more help on a topic then the tutorial that was made for that area. e.g. i found the painted hat variants tutorial a little confusing, another user who has done it before, goes through and helps step by step with a successful result.

Format

Minigun tv kill icon.png

Videographer
Create a video for the Weapon Demonstration project which gets added to the official YouTube channel.

I might be nitpicking here, but can the colour of the link be changed? It's not very easy to read so looks a bit tacky. There's also a full-stop missing! How could dis happen?

» Cooper Kid (blether·contreebs) 02:15, 30 August 2011 (PDT)

I think that if the link was the same green color as the Wikichievement title, it'd look pretty nice. Just my two cents. Sven 08:55, 11 September 2011 (PDT)

NO! DONT DO IT!

Tf soldier worth a thousand wars.png

Don't you readd!
Tell on a user who has been recently readding existing sound files, pictures etc.

This was inspired by those users who have been adding files that currently exists. Im not going to metion names. Stunned.png The Noble Scout (T/C) 08:14, 11 September 2011 (PDT)

Change the title to "Don't" instead of "Dont" and then we'll talk. Sven 08:57, 11 September 2011 (PDT)
Done :D Stunned.png The Noble Scout (T/C) 09:04, 11 September 2011 (PDT)
 :D Good, now let's talk about it. I like the basic idea, but it seems (at least to me) that it could be better somehow. No idea HOW, but still. I like the idea and hope you get some more feedback/support for this soon(ish). Sven 09:07, 11 September 2011 (PDT)

New Wikichievements?

Relentless Editing
Make over 20 edits in 1 hour.

--Scout Decal Black.png ScoutKast 01:12, 23 September 2011 (PDT)

I dislike Ready for Duty. We already have a good one for that, known as Show me Your War Face! I don't think that blocking someone is good either, but the rest sound good. Painted Vintage Merryweather 803020.pngFyahweather 13:29, 23 September 2011 (PDT)
Why, Thank You! Your right though, "Show Me Your War Face" is pretty much the same. --Scout Decal Black.png ScoutKast 14:23, 23 September 2011 (PDT)
Out of all of these, "We can fix it in post" is really the only achievement worth implementing. The others are either far too simple (Classic Editing) or they promote something we don't want (Wiki crime and punishment). --User Firestorm Flame.png Firestorm 15:58, 23 September 2011 (PDT)
Coool. Making a new Wikichievement is my new goal now, i'll keep thinking of some more. I'll try to avoid things that are too easy or promote something bad. --Scout Decal Black.png ScoutKast 04:21, 24 September 2011 (PDT)
I think we could come up with a better name than "We Can Fix It In Post" though. --Scout Decal Black.png ScoutKast 00:44, 26 September 2011 (PDT)

Lights, Camera, Action!
Upload a new Weapon Demonstration within one day of it needing to be redone.

My agreements: 1st one: Pictogram minus.png Mods and Admins takes care of this.

2nd one: Pictogram minus.png TFC is standard stuff, no need to edit it unless someone has screwed up.

3rd one: Pictogram minus.png TF2Items is sure a usefull place to check peoples BP's

4th: Pictogram wait.png Neutral

5th: Pictogram minus.png No need to push the users who makes these Demonstrations

6th: Pictogram minus.png Already exsist XD

7th: Pictogram minus.png Just make a bunch of edits and upload them and there you got it...No need

8th: Pictogram minus.png These demonstrations are viewed before they are uploaded by the Wiki's Youtube Channel.

You're just jealous--Scout Decal Black.png ScoutKast 20:09, 26 October 2011 (PDT)

Something I came up with

Gigantic Improvement

Tf medic heal engineer.png

An Overkill Cure
Make a great improvement for an article, tagged for Cleanup, with more than 10'000 bytes of difference.

Value of Teamwork

Tf medic simul charge.png

Master Plan
Invite other users to improve a single article as a team and do a great job.

Something like that? :D Limie Pie Painted Sign of the Wolf's School 32CD32.png 06:30, 30 September 2011 (PDT)

The first one seems abit unachieveable because you got to redo a HUUUUUGE article. From my point of view, it's not a wikichievement, but a goal. The second one on the other hand is a co-op achievement...Look around! We do this everyday! You should go and give every user this wikichevement then XD Stunned.png TheNobleScout 00:29, 24 October 2011 (PDT)
