Hello, GenericTF2er!

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 GenericTF2er 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:GenericTF2er/ to the page title when you create the page.

Once again, welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Wiki!

Your recent trivia addition

Hi GenericTF2er, your recent addition of trivia has been reverted because it did not meet our trivia guidelines. In short, trivia entries should...

  • ... be facts, not speculation.
  • ... be about the released content only.
  • ... not be obvious for somebody who has played Team Fortress 2 for a small amount of time.
  • ... make the reader say "Wow! I did not know that!"
  • ... not be information that belongs in other parts of the page.

For a full explanation including examples, check out our trivia style guide!
Your trivia submission failed to meet the "Make the reader say "Wow I did not know that!"" guideline. For anyone who watched the short it's pretty obvious when they read it.

creators.tf

For your creators.tf page, I'd suggest making a page on your own space (Like User:GenericTF2er/creators.tf) and make a page there. Once you think you are finished, ask a staff member for approval (Or any experienced member, they can find mistakes and such).

Don't be afraid to help out with the Creators.TF article, eh! The more the merrier! By the way, I'm a SourceMod plugin dev for Creators.TF ;) 404UNF (talk) 04:31, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Show preview

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. · Ashe (talk) 16:35, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
