There's plain no need. They'll just remain as red links until the items are released. Even then they might have differing names.

== Dart Pack ==
 
 
 
Neotank, I believe he is referring to the fact that the dart pack will replace the shells on the vest in the same way that the huntsman adds the arrows to your back. The creator never stated whether it was going to be a misc or attached to the Sleeper, I'm hoping for the latter. --[[User:Firestorm|<font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]]&nbsp;{{mod}}&nbsp;[[File:User Firestorm Nuke Sig.jpg]] 21:45, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 
:(Wow, I'm late.) It's more likely a misc. item because A) It's easier to model that way and B) It's referred to as a "bonus," not part of the Sydney Sleeper. Nothing is definite until release, of course, so we just leave it as is. -[[User:The Neotank|<font color="#FF8C00">'''The Neotank'''</font>]]&nbsp;({{mod}}<small> | [[User talk:The Neotank|Talk]]</small>) [[File:User The Neotank Signeotank.jpg]] 02:46, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
 
::It said "Bonus!" as in Buy the Sydney Sleeper, and we'll throw in a free ammo(dart) pack with it! It is probably part of the sydney sleeper when equipped. [[User:Anonynja|Anonynja]] 00:15, 24 July 2010 (UTC)

== Split responsibilities ==
 
 
 
Since all of these weapons will be released at the same time, a good idea might be to lock the new weapon pages at first, and get a few people assigned to each page to edit that one the most, so there aren't a ton of cross-overs in the ensuing edit storm --[[User:Firestorm|<font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]]&nbsp;{{mod}}&nbsp;[[File:User Firestorm Nuke Sig.jpg]] 23:56, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

== Greentooth item picture? ==
 
 
 
I noticed that the picture of the Greentooth Misc. item I added was removed. For a start, it is part of the update, and even though it's not part of a pack it's still going to be released. The packs have pictures, so why not the picture of the misc item too? I know it's not the real icon too, but its the only pciture we have, just like the packs. The Russian and Italian pages feature the picture also. May I ask what the problem is and why it was removed? <small>--''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' [[User:Nbduckman|Nbduckman]] ([[User talk:Nbduckman|talk]]) • [[Special:Contributions/Nbduckman|contribs]]) 21:20, 4 August 2010</small>
 
 
 
:The image was removed because it isn't actually in the game yet. We are trying not to add any content about specific items in the Polycount Pack until it is officially released (mostly because items usually have been changed a lot by the time they are released). The article you made on the pin was also deleted for the same reason, however, both your image and the article will be restored come the release of the Pack. (''Also remember to add ''<code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>'' to the end of your post, it adds the time and date.'')

== Robin Walker's rumors ==
 
 
 
Shouldn't this[http://www.pcgamer.com/2010/08/11/next-tf2-update-adds-trading-new-game-mode/] interview with Robin Walker be added somewhere to this page, if not perhaps a rumor? PCGaming is good friends with VALVe, I don't think these would be faked or lies from Robin. IIRC, some PCGamer staff has Community weapons? Don't quote me on that; I was looking through the list a few days ago and I thought I remembered PCGamer people on there. Additions should probably include the rumor of a fifth pack that will arrive unannounced, and the apparent downside of the Eternal Reward (No facestabs.)
