This is an overview study of all non-Patched Custom maps in Category:Custom maps.
Date: 2020 09 30
Source: Category:Custom maps
- Methods
- Remove Patched maps from data set
- High Player Count, Multi-server from memory
- Editors of stature were engaged in the page [notable Cap Emeritus sponsor/vetter/curator]
- ? notability unknown or unconfirmed
- TF2Maps events: +innovation, +patched maps source, +competitive vetting, -low-rank\non-winning maps on wiki,
- Potato.tf event: +Notable event, +Measurable participation, +Multiple severs, +Multiple hosts, +Use outside of event
- Observations
- 4 waves of Patch Quality Community map development?:
- Early days before there was an abundance of Patched maps, and the Community filled a demand. c. 2010-2011
- Innovation of Community play modes Achievement, Idle, Trade, Training, Jump, etc.
- Valve competitions for themed maps: Haunted, Jungle
- Continuation of development of maps in absence of Valve's direct involvement: TF2 mappers, Potato
- Several Custom maps articles were "started" in 2010, by familiar editor names, but this practice did not seem to continue, strongly.
- The commonalty of the 2010 date may be due to the 2007 Team Fortress Wiki being ported to the Valve server in 2010.
- Earlier map articles are presumed ported without the change history.
- Three TF2Map.net contests predate 2010, some effort is needed to index what happened when (see the date finally added to A/D CTF and Payload Race Contest.
- In particular, a new wave of pages cover unPatched MvM maps.
- Recently, Admin deleted some empty (infobox only) pages. However, some have been replace with fuller content, but some with unknown notability.
- Recently, there are some new Custom map pages with unknown notability (exhibit no evidence of notability we have discussed so far).
- Questions (can you help?)
- At some point, did TF2Maps.net consistently switch from competitions to Jams?
- Could someone look up and add the year and blog links to the TF2Maps.net competition pages?
Some of these map I have never looked until just now at because they are unPatched, but with this light skim I am now at least curious about some of these.

This list was started over a year ago for a methodical assessment of ALL Custom map pages that are on this wiki but were never patched into the game. Some are very notable, some have no notable.
