~~Hello~~.

Can we get a couple new links added to the main page's Categories section? Specifically [[:Category:Patch Notes|Patches]] and [[:Category:Lists|Lists]]. Thanks! [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 01:40, 25 January 2025 (UTC)

:❤️ [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 02:08, 25 January 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your constructive criticism. As I have over 1,500 edits, have contributed the vast majority of information and prose to the Wiki, constructed every single TF2C map page, created the templates which are used on every single weapon page, and have received a credit on the official TF2 Classic website detailing my contributions, I feel that discussing my edits on the permanently-dead talk pages or the official Discord is a waste of my time and of your effort. Please at least discuss with the person who has single-handedly launched your Wiki to the to top page of every Google result whether or not they deserve a sarcastic sneering from a socially anxious Frenchman over the objectively dogshit edits that teenagers make to the Wiki I have graciously volunteered hundreds of hours to maintaining, and who I have given pity to on the last day of my vacation fixing the hilariously inconsistent and half a year out of date prose regarding.

== woah ==

~~Thank~~ you ~~kindly~~.

[https://wiki.tf2classic.com/w/index.php?title=Engineer&action=history we literally edited Engineer at the same time. i had erased those three cat's in my edit without knowing you had just done so at that exact moment]. crazy, huh? [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 21:21, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

:also thanks, i'd been meaning to add nocat for a while [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 21:22, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

== custom fonts don't work? ==

The various tf2 based fonts around the wiki don't seem to be loading for some reason, though I am still able to [https://wiki.tf2classic.com/misc/TF2C.woff2 access them directly]. That, and the little right facing arrows on Special:RecentChanges for entries with multiple edits aren't showing up either but can still be clicked. Just started happening the other day. Upon previewing this edit, I also noticed the little icons that show up on external links aren't showing up either. [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 04:28, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

:Apologies, this issue is a bit more confusing. On my phone using Firefox, all of the above is true. However, here on my PC in Firefox, the custom fonts show up just fine, but the external link icon and dropdown arrow on Special:RecentChanges are still missing [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 20:30, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

::Inspecting the external link icon element shows the CSS as "background-image: url(?14604);" which just fails to load. And I can't even see or click the dropdown arrow on PC, whereas I can still somehow tap the invisible arrow on mobile. Super weird. [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 20:32, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

:::Found the dropdown arrow on PC, CSS shows a similar issue "background-image: url(?d0685);". [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 20:34, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

:Two things:

# the above issues are still active issues, anything in the MediaWiki css that uses "url()" is broken. I've been trying to research solutions but haven't found anything yet

# just curious if I could get sysop so I can edit some stuff that has been protected (like the English localization txt file) to categorize stuff. It's cool if not though, I understand. [[User:VivaRomania|🇷🇴]] 20:46, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

:: Hi, yeah the CSS issue is in fact an internal issue with the MediaWiki setup itself. We have an idea on how to fix it but we haven't gotten around to it yet. <span style="font-family:monospace">[[User:Technochips|Technochips]]</span> ([[User talk:Technochips|talk]]) 21:14, 8 May 2025 (UTC)
