How Mikado282 got possessed by the wiki.

I am developing a Help Wanted! guide to work that I would like to see done on the English articles, but it doesn't have to be done by me.

  • Participate in the Featured articles:
    • Great activity for new editors! Read the past Featured Articles as models of how to write good articles.
    • Review and vote on nominated articles. It is certain that the reason that Tark doesn't change the Featured Article very often is that editors don't show enough interest to vote for articles.
    • Improve articles and then nominate them.


  • I have been working on cleaning up and expanding English tagged article lists for new editors to see if they can help:
  1. List of stub articles needing completion
  2. Images that need improving
  3. List of Lists to be expanded < I will be tagging some of the incomplete Image categories for this.



  • There are several wonderful new companies and posters that have been added to the game in and since End of the Line Update that have never been uploaded to the wiki. I don't have the time to search for them to upload. IIRC, they are in the VPK files.



  • Most anything on my To Do page (the Wiki Life part) is available for others to contribute.
    • All I ask is quality English (for which I offer coaching).


  • I would like to see role and two weapon load out strategies added somehow to the Class strategies, particularly those strategies that can't effectively be discussed by single weapon; e.g., Pybro  ·  Medieval Medic (interplay of three specific weapons)  ·  Spyro (two weapon interplay)  ·  Meat Turret  ·  Piss Sniper
    • To a large extent, this has been done (see "Weapon combinations" sections in the Community Class Strategies, so broadly disregard). (For some reason, I have had difficulty navigating to the multi-weapon playstyles.) (Searching the page for the playstyle name failed because the section is hidden.) For example: Community Pyro covers Pybro, Spyro, and Pyroshark, if not presently by explicit name in all cases. What remains is to make links from Glossary of player terms to anchors added in the "Weapon combinations" sections.
      • Unfortunately, the Weapon combinations are all hidden!?!?!? Is it absolutely necessary for the all of the wall of test in the strategies that the Weapon combinations be hidden?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!)
