Traingrid translation

Hi there,

How did you get the translations for Russian? It seems from your profile you are not from Russia or a Russian-speaking country.

Cheers again a thousand times over for telling me how this tab works, Anyways. I scouted for outside assistance from varying populated coder discords yesterday, Finding a few to help copy over. Also just quickly running through google translate to make sure I'm not being had in accidentally saying something offensive. Did I make an oversight? Oposshim (talk) 16:52, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
Based on 2 users' evaluation they're automatic translation tool level translations, which is not allowed on the wiki. There's no need to update for languages you don't speak, in the most cases that people have tried this it has turned out badly.

Oh- well, Cheers for informing me of this. I'll stick to native pages and keep to solo'ing it. Also cheers for reverting said flawed passed on translations. Oposshim (talk)

Missing Item icons.

Hi. A lot of cosmetic names had their names updated in patches, mostly fixing uppercased letters where they shouldn't be, an example being the Melody of Misery you just uploaded. Before uploading a file, make sure the Item icon already exists by typing "File:Item icon " on the search bar, and then the name of the cosmetic. The Melody of Misery was originally known as Melody Of Misery, with an uppercase "O". From now on, please request a move on the already uploaded page (in this case, File:Item icon Melody Of Misery.png), by using the template {{move|ReasonGoesHere}}

Example: {{move|The name for the cosmetic item has been changed in the March 2, 2021 Patch, the file name should be renamed accordingly to "[[:File:Item icon Melody of Misery.png]]"}}

Add a bracket (":") before the "File:" so the image doesn't show up in the actual page.
The Item icon pages has a different angle style than the Backpack ones, and... they also have a different image size (being 512x384 and not 512x512 like backpack images). Regardless, thank you for fixing red links around the Wiki, but make sure to check if these images already exist in the Wiki, if so, request for moves instead of uploading them again, because some of them have different angles than the Backpack ones.
