Ordering by promotion date?

Should we re-order this template based on the dates of the promotions, as opposed to alphabetical order? I feel that sorting it by promotion date would give it a better feel. --LordKelvin 20:22, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Syntax for Noise Makers

At the moment, the noise makers have links that look like

[[Noise_Maker#Shogun_Pack{{if lang}}]]

This isn't correct. Looking at a Russian weapons page, that link is re-written to point to be

[[Noise_Maker#Shogun_Pack.%2Fru]]

This is obviously incorrect, as the actual page and section are:

[[Noise_Maker/ru#.D0.A8.D1.83.D0.BC.D0.B5.D0.BB.D0.BA.D0.B8_.C2.AB.D0.A1.D1.91.D0.B3.D1.83.D0.BD.C2.BB]]

I don't know deep wiki magic, so I don't know how to fix this properly - So could someone come up with some method of making this Just Work? - I was thinking that adding the English section names to the sections on translated pages would make work, but I'm not sure if it makes sense.

Solution is easy. Just point to pages with pre-made redirects. DrAkcel (T | C) 10:12, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Portal 2 / Potato Sack

Should we combine the two because they both relate to Portal? Smashbrother101 23:49, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

red faction armageddon

someone need to add red faction armageddon in. THE3STOOGES 22:24, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

Alphabetization of The

Games with "the" at the head of the title are listed under "T"? Is this on purpose or just how whoever added the titles threw them in? That breaks most title alphabetizing conventions; not even weapons are listed as such. — C2Talon (c/t) 12:00, 25 November 2011 (PST)

Steam Gift Pile hats

Could someone add the Gift Pile prize hats (B.M.O.C., Holiday Headcase and Ebenezer)) to this? I'm clueless with tables and I just break it every time I try to fit these in, and I don't know what we should be calling the event anyway (I don't think there's a page like with the Summer Sale).

Comic-Con 2012 promos?

Dunno if we should add the Sandvich Box and Companion Square Box, since they unboxed and are now the badge and the robo-sandvich... Scoot-teh-Destroyer 17:18, 22 September 2012 (PDT)

Hitman: Absolution No common string?

I did add Hitman Absolution to the template, but i couldnt add common string like all other games, any idea why? PosiTiv3Z!* 11:25, 18 November 2012 (PST)

I had a sudden burst of illiteracy and screwed up adding Hitman to the common strings list, and later fixed it. You must've tried to add it before I fixed it, apologies. I just plopped it in for ye, also moved this down to the right spot. c: Killicon bushwacka.pngCobalt 11:56, 18 November 2012 (PST)

Manage the template?

I think we should do something to this template due the large size of navigate bar. Should we split it to 3? (Weapon, Hat and Misc) User Hinaomi Hinaomi-sig.png Hinaomi (talk) • (contributions) 16:25, 26 February 2013 (PST)

Merge L4D2 Groups

I suggest in merging both Left 4 Dead 2 and Left 4 Dead 2: The Sacrifice groups, not only that both groups are literally speaking of the same game, both links redirects to the same L4D2 article. Moreover, for new and unfamiliar players, it'll be easier for them to know that the Bill's Hat, Ellis' Cap and Frying Pan, are from the same game.

What do you guys think? Yossef | Talk | Contributions 11:42, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

I support the idea, I think this would be better. Current setting seem too far apart, being from the same game.--Ryo (talk) 17:16, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
Yeah, I don't really see any reason why it should be separated. How to obtain said items is already explained on their pages, and The Sacrifice is not even a separate DLC, like in other games. User Denied signature.jpg Denied (Talk) 19:09, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
