Official Team Fortress Wiki

[Smashman]

What's going on with the (now OFFICIAL) Team Fortress Wiki?

Recently, the Team Fortress Wiki moved from its old home at TF2Wiki.net to [url=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Main_Page]wiki.teamfortress.com[/url]. Valve is now generously hosting the content and the site, which means [b]the Wiki no longer has the annoying, intrusive advertising that acted as the primary source of user complaints.[/b] This also means you will NOT get virus warnings when visiting the site.

We always need help in expanding articles, such as our pages on custom maps and class strategies, which include information for both public and competitive play, so feel free to sign up as an editor and help expand the single most valuable source of information on Team Fortress on the web. New contributors are always welcome, and seasoned editors are encouraged to return.

Bear in mind that we are on a new database, so if you're a returning editor, you'll have to register for a new account.

The Wiki is dedicated to disseminating and spreading information on Team Fortress as widely as possible. We have several hard-working editors translating pages from English to Russian, Polish, French, and other languages. The staff would like to encourage this kind of growth to continue. We want editors of any and all languages to contribute to the Wiki, making it a truly universal resource for all players.

We're still adjusting to the transition, so not everything is 100% up and ready. But that's the nature of a constantly changing, ever evolving source of information. We're also integrating the Quake Team Fortress/Team Fortress Classic Wiki into the TF2 Wiki, creating the definitive Team Fortress Wiki, period. If you feel you can help update the information on these pages, then by all means, stop by and lend a hand.

Feel free to ask any questions in this thread. The Wiki admins will be keeping an eye on it over the next few days. You can also add comments and questions to our talk pages on the Wiki proper.

To quote Gabe, Thanks and have fun.

[KarmaPolice]

Good to hear you had a hand in this, because my first thought when I saw the announcement was "Smashman will be pissed".

[Smashman]

Nah, I was in on it the entire time.

If you used ad-block, it never had advertising.

The advertising basically prompted my contact with Robin, who offered to host the website! Weee!

About time.

Why is this thread rated dumb? My guess is that those who did rate it dumb didn't bother to notice to read the thread or the news.
