Did you mean to blank your page?

Hey saw you blanked your page on the 6th did you do this or were you hacked?

Yeah, I forgot I was streaming on discord in a public server when i logged in and someone grabbed my password. It's fine now, just forgot to fix my user page. -Equalizer5118, an idiot who cant spel (talk) 08:30, 18 September 2023 (PDT)

Template "t/p/n/a/sp"

How do you think? Does creating a template something like "this page needs a {{software page}}" make sense?

Makes sense to me. Probably would add pages it is on to a category like Category:Needs Software page

Probably would look like this:

Info.png
This page needs to include the {{Software page}} template.
Please follow the instructions in the documentation on the template's page for steps on how to properly add this template.

On the one hand I want to delete all this since it is no longer used, but on the other hand this is wrong. All these files have a long history, and in some places these files were on pages that have now been deleted. Just like regular Wikipedia, there are lost files, I'm serious, take a look. This will literally allow you to travel back in time. Here

Hey man! I would like to know your opinion about ERROR, since I see your edits quite often, do you think there is really a need to contain something like this? At least as a separate article, this is a lot IMHO... As a workaround, creating a separate article with errors, for example, we do not have an article for ERROR Texture (Purple-Black)ref
ERR
UserAvatarFrame-Equalizer5118.png
Equalizer10:03, 17 January 2024 (UTC−7)
Personally, I do not see the point in having the ERROR article (I could have sworn that there was a similar article somewhere, I was right). We don't necessarily need an article dedicated to a single model, or like you said the missing texture. I was about to say something about it this morning after I woke up, but I guess someone beat me to it lol.

Engine branch doubt

EvilEMG23:48, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
Hello! Appreciate your contribution to the XenEngine page :). I'm a bit confused about something you added, though. Black Mesa's article mentions it runs on its own version of the Team Fortress 2 engine branch, and Chetan Jag's blog says it's built on the orange box (TF2 branch) version of Source Engine. The article also notes it's a hybrid, so maybe it's just a mix of both 2013MP and TF2? Sorry to bother.
ERR
UserAvatarFrame-Equalizer5118.png
Equalizer17:26, 30 January 2024 (UTC−7)
Its no bother! Team Fortress 2 was release with the orange box bundle, so with hl2ep2 and Portal. The orange box branch eventually turned into Source 2013, which is split into Singleplayer and Multiplayer. Team Fortress 2 is based off of Source 2013 MP, there is no dedicated Team Fortress 2 branch. That statement Jags made is true, I just wanted to he specific about what branch it is based on.

This is just a preset of my equalizer settings so that my terrible Nokia headphones produce good sound with bass. I know it's probably strange here, but since you're nickname is Equalizer, I couldn't help but stay this good preset, I recently installed the Equalizer and configured it (PulseAudio), and was happy with the good sound. And good sound to you by the way.

LOL. That's a new one! In reality, I based my name off the tf2 weapon "The Equalizer". Theres a story behind that. It starts where everything starts, a tf2 100x Highertower server. In that gamemode, The Equalizer is incredibly op, as it 1 shots most classes and you move very fast, so I named myself Equalizer and ran around the server with the Equalizer. Since then, I became lazy and only changed my name for the #savetf2 trend. Now it's my internet name and I wont change it :/.

Hey man, I just want to ask you about adding tables, whether you have seen or not my recent edits about this. Some are against it, in general, what do you think about it? It seems to me that this wiki should contain formatted pages, and not just copypaste of the convars. In the interest of improving the quality of the wiki, I'm just curious to know what you think about this. I'll probably start rolling back changes, it seems that some people consider this to be excessive perfectionism IMHO.

Tables do look nicer, and while I do think that they should be the standard on pages such as the list of console commands or cvars, however they are tedious to create which is why some editors can be turned off by them. I think tables are preferred, but not exactly live or die if they are absent.

Thank you! Really! Apparently, they don't like it when I use a template for this. What else can you say about it? I'm not sure; maybe I should silently add tables instead of using a 'clean-up' template. On the contrary, I see the point in this because these are indeed the pages whose quality can be improved, and others can notice it and offer help. Your opinion as an experienced editor matters to me.

I did this to avoid adding to the Black Mesa category.[1]
Workaround [2]
Cancel these edits if you think the display title complicates the page. But this is done only to avoid adding an unnecessary category, or, as a last merge the Black Mesa categories and move pages from BM(S) to BM. (just suggest, i can merge it)

Hello, Equalizer! I'd like to ask for your opinion on the tables in this Discussion[3]. It appears that a dispute is escalating, but I am firmly in favor of the tables. Your objective perspective from the outside would be valuable. It seems that someone may not like the trend of adding tables or the fact that I am marking pages without tables for cleaning. Please share your thoughts; it would be helpful to know your viewpoint!

Just idea.

Hey dude, I'm sorry for bombarding you with 10,000 messages, but you're the editor I know who always responds. What do you think about creating guides for quickly formatting articles on this wiki? I've started writing scripts, and I can't get enough of the fact that creating tables now only takes 5 minutes, and creating a high-quality entity sheet takes almost no time at all. Here are some examples.12..

That can totally work. We can likely put them under the "Help:" prefix, however lets make sure that the article is completed on a sandbox page before actually moving to a Help prefix page.
