Talk:Portal 2 crossover cosmetics
Notes or trivia?
I think notes should be about in-game info (for explaining facts like a paint not giving visual difference in-game when applied). · Ashe (talk) 19:50, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
Team Fortress 2 > Portal 2 transfer is not working
Currently, cosmetics transfer from Team Fortress 2 to Portal 2 is not working since 2017. Also confirmed by Steam Support. We have 2 options, as far as I can see:
- Remove notes about transfer from cosmetics articles in all languages and reword Portal 2 crossover cosmetics, with adding {{update trans|Transfer from Team Fortress 2 to Portal 2 is currently not working}} to all other languages to prevent missinformation.
- Add {{update trans|Transfer from Team Fortress 2 to Portal 2 is currently not working}} to cosmetics articles and Portal 2 crossover cosmetics for all languages and keep note about transfer.
I removed notes from Fancy Fedora, Tyrant's Helm, Aperture Labs Hard Hat and Pyro's Beanie from all supported languages. So, if 2nd option gonna be selected, edits must be undo. Second option was offered by Mediarch in IRC when I was removing the notes.

- Option 1. Mentioning that this feature doesn’t work anymore isn't really relevant to us, as it's primarily a Portal 2 feature. — Tark 22:21, 13 December 2025 (UTC)
- I still think it'd be worth mentioning, as trivia, that the items were usable in Portal 2 despite no longer working. Mediarch

Agree with it being in Trivia. – BrazilianNut (talk) 23:57, 13 December 2025 (UTC)
- I think adding a note that it used to exist this way might be interesting to know for readers.

- Adding trivia or note about that it used to exist this way could only work for articles, that have any kind of active contributors. The best way is still remove notes as option #1, add update trans and request to translate it and add to trivia in language contributors talk pages.
