== Error creating thumbnail ==
+
== Category:Item description usage LANG ==
Hey, I've recently been remaking some paint galleries for some potato medals and I've run into a problem, maybe. I uploaded the first of the galleries today and saw that many of the images I had uploaded show up in the gallery and file itself with the text saying "Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination." (Example [[:File:Painted Madness vs Machines Burnished Beryl 2019 UNPAINTED.png]]) I was just curious if this was just a cache issue or if I should be doing something different before uploading more images. I would appreciate any help!

I noticed you made a change to the way the map infoboxes work, and it seems like it broke the "Buy now" part: https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/index.php?title=Gravel_Pit&diff=next&oldid=3605274

Hi. The GRU is using the wrong defindex. The weapon had a new defindex when the Jungle Inferno update came in. The current defindex "1184" on the [[Template:Dictionary/defindex]] page is now used exclusively to the robots on MVM. The new index should be "239". Due to this, clicking to purchase the weapon on the page does not work, as it's redirecting to the old defindex.

Hi Tark. You expressed displeasure with the content I created for April Fools Day 2020, instead delaying it to 2021 which arguably created other problems.

== Player Medals in Promotional Item Tables ==
+
: I'm just testing if adding 3D images is feasible - it's not finished yet. If you want to make some 3D images to test it, feel free to, but do remember that this is ''only a test'', so it may or may not be ''scrapped entirely''.
  
Last October, Swood and I discussed that he thought medals earned through actually playing TF2 in community events shouldn't be put in the promotional item tables, because they don't promote anything external, the way that say, the Random Acts medals do, and of course, charity donor medals do. ''I'' argue that they're still promoting an ''event'', whether or not that event is in-game or not - and I feel that's different from a tournament medal, because it's something a wider range of the community is intended to take an interest in.  
+
: The sandbox version only has one new parameter: {{code|image-3d}}, which is the file name of the image without the "_3D.jpg" extension (this is added automatically). So, if you're going to test it, you'll need to upload a file named {{code|User Slimyboi500 CoolRender 3D.jpg}} then set the {{code|image-3d}} parameter to {{code|User Slimyboi500 CoolRender}}. — [[User:Tark|<span style="font-weight:bold;color: #5BC236">Tark</span>]] 19:18, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
  
It was at that point that we had come to a compromise: that I would remove medals earned by playing the game from the promotional item tables, in exchange for him producing a disambiguation page for Community Medals that showed ''all'' available community medals, in the same style as the Genuine quality item table. It's now the following July, and nothing has come of that -- so I thought I'd ask you what your thoughts on the matter were.

Hello there, I would like for my Wiki name (and subsequently all edits/activity) to be changed from '''Cinnapoodle''' to '''JupiterSphere'''.

But I need help cleaning it up, on the tech side. Obviously the {{code|(also used as)}} could be turned into a common string, but how do I do the linked names beneath it? I can't just hotlink it, the way they are now, because when this gets translated, it needs to auto-link to that wiki's language.

Can I generate a bold typefaced, automatically linked dictionary string somehow? -[[User:ThatHatGuy|ThatHatGuy]] ([[User talk:ThatHatGuy|talk]]) 04:54, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

Please change my nickname to DeletedUserXXXX.
::I've already had to slightly modify a few of the table icon names, because some medals share names with each other. The item icon for "Ready Steady Pan Helper" is, for example, already taken up by the icon for Season 1's Participant medal, as those were also apparently given out to helpers during that season, under that name. So for the medal called "Ready Steady Pan Helper" in Season 3, I've had to change the item icon link to "Ready Steady Pan Helper Season 3", and force a name change to "Ready Steady Pan Helper" beneath it, as you can see. If that sort of thing isn't a hindrance to it, I would love for you to take up localization duties on this later. I ''do'' plan to use the names that exist in the dictionary already where I can. Makes it easier.

Thank you very much!

::I appreciate your help in making the strings as well. This sort of thing will allow for the streamlined translation I was hoping for, to make this sort of thing easier on the backend; it's best to think ahead with these sorts of things, after all. With the plan I had, I didn't think I would need to list more than one season in the Released section of the tables, because I was trying to have that highlight the ''initial'' season those medal designs were introduced for; but I appreciate the capability to include several seasons in an easily translatable string.

:: Perhaps I'll change that so the patch date is the date designs were introduced, and the Season string below it would showcase all seasons where a medal was actually ''used.'' That might actually carry more weight to it. Can we also have a string that is basically "Season X onward," for medals that are currently in use out of several sets? Anything else you can think of like that might be useful, as well -- keeping in mind that some leagues only have ''one'' set of medals. I don't know if simply listing "Season 1" would help with that. Maybe just leave that without a season indicator?

::: 'ello Tarku, would it be possible to change the functionality of the "compmedallist season and|1|3" string so it can take N amount of variables (if it is not possible to have an arbitrary amount of variables just do like 4 or 5 for now) depending on how many different season intervals you want? So, for example, "compmedallist season and|1|3|5" could print out "Season 1, 3 & 5" (so the last number should always be separated by an & and the rest by a comma). Also, would it be possible for the variables to take on both ranges and single numbers? So "compmedallist season and|1|3-7|13" would print "Season 1, 3-7 & 13" for example. Just basically as much as an all-purpose string as possible. This would greatly increase the simplicity of use for now and the future.

:::: It *is* possible, but I believe it is easier to use the regular {{tlx|lang}} template instead.
 
:::: Automatic translation works best with text that is predictable. Would a long string like "Season 1, 3-7 & 13" be considered valid and grammatically correct in other languages? — [[User:Tark|<span style="font-weight:bold;color: #5BC236">Tark</span>]] 16:49, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
 
  
::::: My solution to that would just be to use several ranges of the strings we already have now. It might require a tad bit more tweaking, and look a little bit less clean, but I think that something [[User:ThatHatGuy/Sandbox3|like this]] would be fine. Obviously, these are just placement medals for the test, but you can see how we'd lay it out for whole sets of medals. We'd group each set from first introduced to latest set at the bottom of the table, and we'd say "this set was used for all these seasons" with line breaks each time a different set was used. That way, we can preserve translation integrity, if it's an issue of how the variables might translate. -[[User:ThatHatGuy|ThatHatGuy]] ([[User talk:ThatHatGuy|talk]]) 00:16, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

== Help me to apply translations for protected pages! ==
+
== Hi Tark! About my userpage ==
 +
Hello, Tark! I'd like to request a whitelisting for editing of my page's css. I've done some research and digging through a couple other css pages on the wiki and can confidently say I at least understand it to an acceptable level. What I'd like to do with it is replace the wiki image with a new one I create myself from scratch that follows the look of my user page, a replacement of the pixel art near the link to someone's own userpage with something i've created, and some other ideas that are floating about in my head such as with the tables that already exist in my userpage. I won't make use of the permissions just yet, as I'm still trying to get my head around it, but it'd be cool to do something a little extra with my userpage. I understand if I'm not whitelisted due to the reasons I've given, but it would be wonderful if I could do something cool :) — [[User:Payn|payn.]] [[File:Beggar's Bazooka.png|30px|link=User:Payn]] [[User talk:Payn|Talk]] [[File:Speech voice.png|25px|link=User talk:Payn]]  [[Special:Contributions/Payn|Contribs]] [[File:Market Gardener.png|30px|link=Special:Contributions/Payn]] 02:50, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

I noticed the new main page event template does not display correctly on my devices with Safari. First is that text size is super small, apparently you need {{code|font-size: -webkit-xxx-large}} instead of {{code|font-size: -xxx-large}} on Safari. Also the background image is not resized correctly, it looks super zoomed in on my iPhone and iPad, which I do not know what's happening. Hope these can get fixed.
 
 
 
Thanks!

== Tournament Medal Revamp - Release Candidate + Questions ==
 
 
 
I still have to take pictures for a lot of remaining item icons, but as far as the actual content of the tournament medal landing page goes, everything is in place now. Have a look around the table, and then come back and answer these questions as best you can:
 
 
 
* Now that everything is in place, do I have your permission to move it over to the [[Tournament Medal]] page as soon as the item icons are completed?
 
** I plan to move everything after the summary text, starting with the table of contents, to {{Template:List of Tournament Medals}}, for the sake of page brevity.
 
* I assume the localization can begin now, on the new strings written in the dictionary, as well as baked-in title overrides present in the actual table; is there anything I'd need to fundamentally change about the table to make that easier?
 
* I plan to update the competitive play nav to have the item icons I made for all of these when it's over, is that okay with you?
 
* Is this whole project good enough to earn the coveted Potato Fan Wikichievement?

: 1. Please do! Excellent work!
 
: 2. Aye, the current implementation is perfectly fine. There are a lot of similar pieces of text that could be tokenized to make translation easier, but I'm not sure how we could do that in a way that is both easy to use and does not cause problems in some strange language.

:: Re: answer two, now that all the text is pretty much done, you can figure out tokenizing stuff, and other such things for localization purposes while I'm taking the rest of the item icon pictures. Feel free to edit the sandbox page if you come up with an implementation you think might be best, so long as it preserves my initial English strings. Don't forget to also update the new translation notes at the bottom of the page, if you change how the mechanics of the template work.
 
:: I can see that maybe forcing item icon name overrides with the title parameter could prove to be a problem when it comes to additionally forcing translated names, the way it currently is. We may have to look into that; I'm not quite sure how that's handled.
 
:: Re: answer four, that seems like a yes on the special Wikichievement then! I imagine I'll probably get it when this whole thing is actually up, in which case, I look forward to it! -[[User:ThatHatGuy|ThatHatGuy]] ([[User talk:ThatHatGuy|talk]]) 14:58, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
 
::: Been thinking a little about how you could turn a lot of that text into strings. You'd probably be able to do stuff like:
 
:::  {{code|cup first: Awarded to first-place finishers in {{{2}}} Cups.}}
 
:::  {{code|tournament first: Awarded to first-place finishers in {{{2}}} tournaments.}}
 
:::  {{code|event first: Awarded to first-place finishers in the {{{2}}}.}}
 
:::  {{code|generic first: Awarded to first-place finishers in {{{2}}}.}}
 
:::  {{code|charity drive: Awarded for donations to the {{{2}}} charity drive, benefiting {{{3}}}.}}
 
::: with the variables being league/tournament/cup names, and var 3 being a charity.
 
::: You'd have to do that for each event type: cups, leagues, events, generic, and each medal type: first, second, third, participant, helper, staff, charity donor, supporter, etc.
 
  
::: Basically scan what I wrote down and make strings that replicate it. That's something you can look into doing, if you think it's a good idea. It wouldn't cover ''all'' the bases -- the "also awarded to" bits after the line jumps are still an issue we can't easily scrape into strings, but it's a start. That and the item icon name overrides are probably things you'd have to look a little deeper into, for translation purposes.

::: Also, now that the text is done and we have a better idea of what strings we need, should we move them out of {{code|common strings/other}}?

Category:Item description usage LANG

Hey Tark, Is there a particular reason you made this category (and not just used {{lang cat}})? It's not very helpful for tracking purposes, since you can't get a correct count of PAGESINCATEGORY. Darkid « TalkContribs » 08:05, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

Ah, not really. I added it just because I wanted to check its general usage, I wasn't planning to make it a proper tracking category. I'll be reverting/deleting it soon as it served its purpose already. — Tark 12:45, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

Your edit to Gravel Pit

Hey Tark, I noticed you made a change to the way the map infoboxes work, and it seems like it broke the "Buy now" part: https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/index.php?title=Gravel_Pit&diff=next&oldid=3605274 Can you please double check that your arguments are right? Darkid « TalkContribs » 04:05, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi! "map-status" was set to "community" instead of "official".
I have updated the documentation to clarify what this parameter does. Please let me know if it is (still) unclear or if you need any help~ — Tark 21:47, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

If you're going to delete Community Bloodwater strategy (et al), please also delete the subpages (i.e. the empty "translated" versions) -- otherwise they throw off the translation statistics. Darkid « TalkContribs » 04:57, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up, but you could have deleted them as well, no?

Hazard Infobox template

Hi there,
I saw that you made a sandbox of the Hazard infobox. Are we going to have to add more 3D images to the Hazards? I'm confused.
----Slimyboi500 User Slimyboi500 Profile.jpg Talk Speech voice.png Contribs Wrench IMG.png Steam Steam tray.png 17:32, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

I'm just testing if adding 3D images is feasible - it's not finished yet. If you want to make some 3D images to test it, feel free to, but do remember that this is only a test, so it may or may not be scrapped entirely.
The sandbox version only has one new parameter: image-3d, which is the file name of the image without the "_3D.jpg" extension (this is added automatically). So, if you're going to test it, you'll need to upload a file named User Slimyboi500 CoolRender 3D.jpg then set the image-3d parameter to User Slimyboi500 CoolRender. — Tark 19:18, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

While they're not necessarily content issues across languages, I do think the localised logos count more than enough towards this!

Hi Tark! About my userpage

Hello, Tark! I'd like to request a whitelisting for editing of my page's css. I've done some research and digging through a couple other css pages on the wiki and can confidently say I at least understand it to an acceptable level. What I'd like to do with it is replace the wiki image with a new one I create myself from scratch that follows the look of my user page, a replacement of the pixel art near the link to someone's own userpage with something i've created, and some other ideas that are floating about in my head such as with the tables that already exist in my userpage. I won't make use of the permissions just yet, as I'm still trying to get my head around it, but it'd be cool to do something a little extra with my userpage. I understand if I'm not whitelisted due to the reasons I've given, but it would be wonderful if I could do something cool :) — payn.

I am looking forward to it. — Tark 04:00, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
Hi Tark. I've been messing around with the css and am pretty happy with how it's turned out so far, however there is one more thing I'd like to do with it. I was hoping to add a border of some sort around my page, but none of the resources I have found give me a satisfactory answer. I don't want to spam the recent changes log again like yesterday when I was sleep deprived, so I was wondering if you had any idea how this could be achieved? Kind regards — payn.

Unfortunately not. When I asked if you had sufficient knowledge, I expected that you would really have sufficient knowledge.
As for spamming the logs, it would be especially helpful if you only edited your Page.css when you think your changes are ready to go. You can try out CSS changes by using your browser's dev tools, and there are multiple browser extensions where you can update CSS in real time - please make use of these and only update your Page.css when you see everything is in working order.
Trying out stuff is fine, but please avoid constant edits, or otherwise, we'll have to revoke your CSS rights - especially since they are given out as a courtesy and are not part of the wiki's main function. — Tark 15:41, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
Understood, thank you. — payn. Beggar's Bazooka.png Talk Speech voice.png Contribs Market Gardener.png 15:58, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks

Wanted To Say “Thanks” This is the person who put “Zombies,VSH, and V-Script” in the technical requests. I am still trying to figure things out and you pointing out I put the request in the wrong page helped. Thank you! DeluxeFortress (talk) 18:17, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

No worries. Welcome to the wiki! If you need any help, don't hesitate to reach out. — Tark 19:37, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
