User talk:Darkid

If you need help with templates, those I've written or not, please do not hesitate to send me an email, add me on steam, or leave me a message on this wiki.

Welcome to the Wiki!

Hello and welcome to the Official Team Fortress Wiki! I see that you are a new user so I just wanted to give you some things to note to help you get started.

First off, on the Team Fortress 2 Wiki, we have a set of rules called the style guide which defines what should and shouldn't be done. Of course, if the style guide can't answer your questions, we have a nice help section that could answer your questions. Now If you find that neither of these have answered your questions, stop by the IRC. There we have many editors, moderators, even administrators who are willing to help. The IRC is also a nice place to socialize with the other users.

Other miscellaneous things to note:

• Recent Changes will let you see others' contributions as they happen. This is a nice way to see whats happening and who is doing what. Usually users provide an edit summary in the "Summary" field before you save your changes so people who view the recent changes can get a quick idea of what that person did.
• Many articles have a "discussion" or "talk" page. When posting on an article's talk page you should add --~~~~, this will add a signature and timestamp to the end of your comment so others can easily tell who posted it. Just remember when editing normal article pages, don't sign your contributions.
• You can also customize your user page however you like. Also if you would like to add any self-made content to the wiki, please do so by adding the prefix User:Darkid/ to the page title when you create the page.

See you around :) 17:25, 1 October 2011 (PDT)

RE: Patch/dictionary edits

Please leave the patch notes exactly as they would appear on the patch source, likewise leave the achievement descriptions how they would appear in tf_english.txt. Thanks. i-ghost 11:15, 17 January 2012 (PST)

Ah, sorry, thought capitalization was within the bounds of change. My two cents ≥Darkid≤ 11:17, 17 January 2012 (PST)

I used to be...

I used to be a wiki editor like you, but then i took an arrow to the knee. I love your tiny tiny edits keep up your good work. Hopefully you could use my user template on your userpage: {{User big point}} TheDoctor 15:26, 28 January 2012 (PST)

I don't own Skyrim, but I'd take an arrow to the knee for it. Thanks for the encouragement! ≥My two cents≤ 15:30, 28 January 2012 (PST)

RE: redirects

Not that I wish to discourage you from editing in general, please read Template:W. Your edits are defeating at least one of many of the purposes of redirects, one of which is to make editing easier. Thanks. i-ghost 11:29, 30 January 2012 (PST)

I'll take that with a grain of salt--one of the listed "benefits" of non-piped behavior is the ease of use of what links here. However, if everything redirects properly, it is easier to use this function without looking at Resupply lockers, Resupply, Resupply locker, Supply cabinet, etc. I do see your point, though. ≥My two cents≤ 11:33, 30 January 2012 (PST)

Quick-fix

Regarding your removal of the Strange Variant section of the Quick-fix, I would like to say that all of the other Medi-gun pages explain it as well. This is likely due to the fact that it differs from the exact concept of a strange. As it stands, the Quick-fix page is inconsistent with the others. Upgrade 15:37, 9 March 2012 (PST)

I would tend to say that the rest need this removed, as they stand. The information is repetitive; albeit not excessively so, but beyond necessity. Darkid (Talk | contribs) 15:47, 9 March 2012 (PST)

Add'l Note-- The wrenches have the same "issue", so I'll defer to what is the majority--feel free to replace that edit.
