Hello, Dix!

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 Dix 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:Dix/ to the page title when you create the page.

Once again, welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Wiki!

Arabic translations

Hi there,

I've seen you've been translating some pages into Arabic, but please note that currently Arabic is a deprecated language on the Wiki as well as in TF2 itself.

Page creation

Hi,

Please be careful on translating articles by mistakenly not following the consistency of the wiki. As stated in the translation guidelines:

3) Navigate to the new language by adding "/LANGUAGE" to the end of the article where LANGUAGE is replaced with the ISO639-1 code of the language you wish to translate to, found here

Example: https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Scout/fr

4)Paste the code of the English page to the new one.

The French version of the article "Weapons" would be Weapons/fr, not Armes, Weapons/Armes or Armes/fr


Moreover, you don’t need to sign your translations, you can see in the History tab who created/edited any article.

Additional side note:

Please use the {{DISPLAYTITLE:XXX}}, in order to show the correct translated name of the article.

Like here as an example.

Adding languages to Templates

Hi,

When adding languages to Templates, please make sure that the language code is alphabetically ordered in the language list, with the English code being first.
