Quanto a artigos pendentes de tradução

Existe alguma prioridade para a tradução desses artigos ou posso escolher a ordem? Essa lista está atualizada? JohnSStrider 11:31, 24 September 2011 (PDT)

Não tem nenhuma prioridade. Você pode arrumar qualquer artigo. E eu acabei de atualizar a lista; talvez você queira dar uma olhada novamente.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 11:39, 24 September 2011 (PDT)

Desafio aceito. JohnSStrider 12:22, 24 September 2011 (PDT)

Help

Hey Eric why do most of my posts that i put up get deleted by a different user. I see my post at the top then refresh and someone else reviesed it but when i look at the article all they did was delete my post. PLease tell me why. P.S. I feel sorta stupid with my first two posts thanks for that warning.— The preceding unsigned comment was added by ULTRAN3RD (talk) • (contribs)

Voltando a traduzir

Yo!

Cara, depois de longo e tenebroso inverno, pretendo voltar a traduzir. Mas faz tempo que não entro na página, não sei se mudou alguma política de revisão e edição de textos. Antes de eu reler os tutoriais e começar a traduzir novamente, me fala como anda o movimento do pt-br, se tem muita coisa importante e grande pra revisar/traduzir. Abs! Deveen [T][C] 04:13, 4 October 2011 (PDT)

Sorry, I don't speak Deveen :)-- ScoutKast 04:16, 4 October 2011 (PDT)

Oh, portuguese? Sorry, I was talking to Eric, that's why I wrote in portuguese. =] Isn't it his talk page? Deveen [T][C] 05:27, 4 October 2011 (PDT)

Antes de qualquer coisa, seja bem-vindo novamente! Uma parte das mudanças pode ser encontrada a partir de discussões de PT-BR e na lista de erros de vocabulário, mas o resto é velho. :P  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 10:21, 4 October 2011 (PDT)

Novo Tradutor

Muito obrigado Eric pelo convite,

Nunca tinha achado uma a equipe oficial de tradução brasileira no wiki. Agora não preciso + traduzir as páginas sozinho.

De qualquer forma, ja criei traduzi uma página INTEIRA sobre o Randomizer mod. Aqui o link caso precise fazer alguma revisão: http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Randomizer/pt-br

Caso queira, posso também terminar de criar as 2 paginas que faltam nos Mods.

E aqui minha Steam community caso precise me adicionar: http://steamcommunity.com/id/superdudeBR — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Superdude143 (talk) • (contribs) 02:23, 5 October 2011

Eu vou dar uma revisada, mas de qualquer modo, bom trabalho! Você poderia terminar estas páginas se tiver tempo e paciência. E, claro, quanto mais, melhor.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 14:56, 5 October 2011 (PDT)

Sem problema

Apenas usei o save page algumas vezes repetidas porque após salvar a pagina eu notei alguns erros de digitação ou incoerência. De qualquer forma espero que a página tenha ficado boa, e farei o máximo pra revisar antes de mandar o save - Ainda sim, dá pra ver os tristes links vermelinhos lá de páginas que eu pretendo traduzir no próximo fim de semana, abraço. - [K1LL] 12:55, 6 October 2011 (PDT)

Ela ficou boa. E é bacana que você esteja interessado em traduzir as páginas de TFC! Elas não recebem a atenção que elas merecem, e suas traduções com certeza trarão novos visitantes brasileiros à esta parte "morta" da Wiki!  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 12:58, 6 October 2011 (PDT)

Para ser sincero eu prefiro traduzir paginas de TF2 mesmo, mas quando vi que haviam muitas paginas de TFC ainda não traduzidas, mesmo eu não jogando TFC, achei melhor traduzi-las. Mas claro, não irei traduzir se eu ver alguma dúvida em relação a algum "gameplay mechanic" do jogo que eu não conheço, então estou tomando cuidado ao traduzir. [K1LL] 13:02, 6 October 2011 (PDT)

Edit

Which of my edits did you undo? I couldn't seem to figure it out. MaxMan1300 15:30, 6 October 2011 (PDT)

Uhh, apparently none. My only edit related to yours is this one, and it's not an undo, but a link fix instead.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 15:35, 6 October 2011 (PDT)

I could have sworn i saw a change on the Medieval Mode nomination by you that said: How about no. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by MaxMan1300 (talk) • (contribs) 15:45, 6 October 2011 (PDT)

Whaaaat. When was that?  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 15:48, 6 October 2011 (PDT)

Heavy responses/pt-br

http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Heavy_responses/pt-br

Traduzido :) [K1LL] 10:33, 7 October 2011 (PDT)

"Você está de crédito ao time!" Mas de qualquer jeito, algumas coisas ficaram só um pouquinho estranhas (mas ainda engraçadas). Vou dar uma arrumada assim que eu puder.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 07:54, 11 October 2011 (PDT)

Auto-Filters

"Bugs" está sendo filtrado para "Defeitos", mas no documento de tradução pt-br do STS "Bugs" continua "Bugs". Ele virar "Defeitos" é só coisa nossa mesmo, ou foi só um erro que não foi notado? GianAwesome 15:20, 7 October 2011 (PDT)

É coisa nossa. Vou arrumar isso.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 23:41, 10 October 2011 (PDT)

Canal iRC

Cara, os tradutores pt-br mantém alguma discussão regular pelo IRC? Deveen [T][C] 07:38, 3 November 2011 (PDT)

Respondi na sua página.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 11:28, 3 November 2011 (PDT)

Olá

Oi, valeu por avisar sobre a equipe de tradução da Wiki. Eu tentei melhorar um pouco as páginas da última update, e terminei a "Obtendo Eye-chievements/pt-br". Acho que você já revisou, mas tudo bem. De qualquer jeito, valeu por me avisar sobre a equipe , e vou tentar traduzir mais páginas. MatthewLevi 05:15, 6 November 2011 (PST)

Legal. Demore o tempo que for necessário para fazer as traduções e faça seu melhor!  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 05:31, 6 November 2011 (PST)

User Boxes

Those User boxes, How do you put it on your user page? Because i have no idea.- RRaccoon99 20:13, 18 November 2011 (PST)

There's more info about them here.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 03:40, 19 November 2011 (PST)

Quick question, how do you change your screen shot on your user box?- RRaccoon99 21:41, 1 December 2011 (PST)

By using {{Userbox}}, you can create a custom userbox for use in your user page (just click the link to see documentation on how to use it).  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 08:02, 2 December 2011 (PST)

How ironic...

I feel so ashamed... I have failed you master... » Cooper Kid (blether) • (contreebs) 08:02, 25 November 2011 (PST)

Nah, it's okay. I beet you were too happy that you got that wikichieve that you forgot to sign that.

Also, I forgot to sign there accidentally. It wasn't an evil plot to destroy you or something. :P  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 08:05, 25 November 2011 (PST)

Do me a favour, turn this image into a redirect

Could you make File:AW-bloody_hurtland_killicon.png a redirect, and redirect it to File:Aw-Killicon_bloody_hurtland.png? I just re-uploaded the original file using the proper naming scheme for Advanced Weaponiser kill-icons, and I don't know how to properly convert an image to a redirect (I think only admins can do it?). Thanks! 404: User Not Found ^(talk) 10:41, 25 November 2011 (PST)

Crap. I screwed up the upload. I'm gonna fix it my way :P Watch and see. 404: User Not Found ^(talk) 10:44, 25 November 2011 (PST)

Alrighty, I just uploaded the killicon to the proper name, so could you delete AW-bloody_hurtland_killicon.png please-and-thank-you? 404: User Not Found ^(talk) 10:47, 25 November 2011 (PST)

I was about to move that file. Anyway, sure.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 10:47, 25 November 2011 (PST)

Thanks. You are indeed epic, sir! 404: User Not Found ^(talk) 10:49, 25 November 2011 (PST)

That JoblessScout Undo-Undoer

He seems to have just created his account to create the Balloon Race thing. This is just my opinion, but I just took a glance at his contributions. (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/JoblessScout). Nice move on the protection though! Davo 13:27, 11 December 2011 (PST)

Stock weapon disambig pages

I know the Pyro's other flamethrowers are in the box, but since there were disambiguation pages for other classes (Wrench (disambiguation), Bat (disambiguation), Revolver (disambiguation), Sniper_Rifle_(disambiguation)/sniper rifle), I assumed it would be fine to streamline the flamethrower and rocket launcher. If not, the page for the rocket launcher still exists. Tabs 02:32, 12 December 2011 (PST)

I made all of the other disambig pages just a few days ago, but I think they're fine because there are more of them, i.e. 5 revolvers, 8 "knives", 12 "pistols", etc. But as there are only 3 flamethrowers, maybe a disambiguation for them page isn't worth it yet. » Cooper Kid (blether) • (contreebs) 03:20, 12 December 2011 (PST)

I'm not in favor of the disambigs, nor that "Sniper rifle" should redirect to that desambig (what if someone is searching for the stock Sniper Rifle and lose their time with a disambig? Also, it's just the name of the stock Sniper Rifle without capital letters). Anyway, my point is: Why make such redundant additions if they are already noted in the class nav boxes (eg. {{Pyro Nav}}) and can easily be accessed from there? Plus, the disambig pages would only make navigation through the Wiki more difficult. That's just my opinion, though.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 05:26, 12 December 2011 (PST)

It's all about user-friendliness. Someone who's new to the game sees a funny brown sniper rifle and want to know what it is, so he comes to the wiki - but what to type in the box? He punches in "sniper rifle" and up pops the default one, as it should. But that little note at the top is what prevents him from trawling through the page until he finds the nav box at the bottom. Some things which are obvious to us aren't so to new users. Though I agree that "Sniper rifle" should go straight to the Sniper Rifle page, no matter how it's capitalised. » Cooper Kid (blether) • (contreebs) 05:40, 12 December 2011 (PST)

There's no less than 4 different ways the user could instantly go any weapon page to any other weapon page on any given weapon's page. Some have more. This isn't needed. Balladofwindfishes 05:51, 12 December 2011 (PST)

Hypothetical situation: What if a random player doesn't know it's, let's say, a Cow Mangler? What if the only thing he knows is that a Soldier was wielding it and killed someone with it? Well, the easiest way to discover it would be going to the "Weapons" article, which is already listed in the Index in the Main page, go to the "Soldier" section, and find it from there judging from the images, either the killicon or the weapon model. I don't know about you, but to me, this way is a lot more practical and straight-forward. The disambigs are separating items with a strange pattern (the "item type" shown by the item level), and that would only bring more confusion regarding items in the same slot that are not considered Rocket Launchers, like the Cow Mangler itself.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 05:53, 12 December 2011 (PST)

Good points, but I still think that there's no harm in keeping together weapons which fall into distinct categories. » Cooper Kid (blether) • (contreebs) 07:15, 12 December 2011 (PST)

Well, this discussion probably deserves more attention. I've created a section about it in the main discussion page so it can reach more people, and so I won't receive an email for any extra talks added.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 07:10, 13 December 2011 (PST)

just a question

I am just wondering why you undid my trivia for the bazaar bargain. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pe0 gray (talk) • (contribs) 21:17, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

It wasn't me who undid it, but it was undone because it did not follow the Trivia Styleguide, specially the part where it reads:

Trivia should not state how a characteristic of an item relates to the characteristics of others. This includes, but is not limited to, listing other items that share a certain characteristic, listing items that do not share a certain characteristic, stating that an item is the first or only item to have a certain characteristic, etc. Often, this will be in the form of "This is the first 'X' to ...", "This is the only 'X' to…", or "This is one of 'N' 'X's to...".

About your edit

Hello i wanna ask you was this edit right or not. --Askarmuk 10:41, 10 January 2012 (PST)

I added it, so I guess so. Dunno what would be "wrong" about it.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 10:44, 10 January 2012 (PST)

Hello again. Its strange to move discussion to archive while it is not has been ended (sry for my english). The thing about it is that you have removed the string "tournament medal - ugc highlander tournament". It was used on many pages. Now it is in place again. --Askarmuk 00:24, 11 January 2012 (PST)

Oh. Sorry about that. Well, if you find any problems with that dictionary string, you can tell me and I'll try to fix it.  –  Epic Eric (T | C) 03:23, 11 January 2012 (PST)

Reply about zh-hans

Hello, EpicEric. Thanks for your notice, I did notice the Heavy achievements/zh-hans. And yes, they copied it too (cause the quote is exactly the same words). However most of the content are template, and I saw that they hadn't translated the template yet, so I decided to spare that page. 06:41, 19 January 2012 (PST)
