Hello, Dark Prelate Mohandar!

Welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Official Wiki!

Here are a few links to get you started:

  • If you're not too familiar with editing wikis, you might like to start with Help:Editing.
  • If you already are familiar with wikiediting, you might want to try Help:Style guide.
  • Recent Changes will let you see others' contributions as they happen.
    • To make Recent Changes more useful for all users, remember to provide an edit summary in the "Summary" field before you save your changes.
    • You can set the wiki to prompt you for a summary in your preferences.
  • When posting on an article's Talk page you should add four tilde symbols or ~~~~ onto the end.
    • This will add a signature and timestamp to your comment so others can easily tell who posted it.
    • Any new sections on an article's Talk page should be added to the bottom of the page and not to the top.
    • When editing normal article pages, don't sign your contributions.
    • You can use the Signature Icon.png button in the editing toolbar to quickly add a signature.
  • If you have any questions or need any help, please feel free to leave a message for a staff member.
  • If you have trouble with anything on the wiki or you're not sure about a specific topic, feel free to join the IRC.
  • You can also customize your user page if you like.
    • When uploading images for use on your user page, please add the prefix User Dark Prelate Mohandar to the file's name.
    • Additionally, if you would like to add any self-made content to the wiki, please do so by adding the prefix User:Dark Prelate Mohandar/ to the page title when you create the page.

Once again, welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Wiki!

About your edits

Pictogram info.png Please make use of the Show preview button. It gives you a preview of the edit you are making, allowing you to perfect your changes before you save the page. You can edit the whole article by clicking the edit button at the top of the page, which is preferable to editing multiple sections consecutively.

In regards to custom gametypes pages

With regards to the edits you make to pages for various custom gametypes (community modifications), it seems that for a lot of them, the wiki's current standard is to base the information on the page on the "official release" of the mod, whatever that may be. After all, any number of people could make any number of changes to any of these mods, but we would be hard pressed to list all of those various changes with phrasing like "Some servers have...", etc. For instance, for VS Saxton Hale mode, the "official" release is here, and the information on the VSH page is based on the features of just this release. You seem to be adding information from arbitrary versions of mods to the pages, so please take a bit to reconsider your edits under this light (Hinaomi seems to have reverted a few of these, but please take note). In addition, including oddly specific information about a mod's details (such as this) is probably unnecessary, as the behavioral specifics of the mod can be summed up much more concisely (e.g. "Boss characters have varying reactions to backstabs, general damage, and other in-game events"). Thanks. -FlaminSarge (talk) 21:11, 15 November 2014 (PST)
