== Changing case of username ==

Is there a way to change the case of my Valve Developer Community username? I noticed that the profile links are case insensitive, and also searching by usernames works with any case (for example, on the Special:Contributions page), so it probably wouldn't be a problem. Maybe I need to contact some moderator/administrator, I don't know -[[User:Drinkly|Drinkly]] ([[User talk:Drinkly|talk]]) 10:48, 8 July 2024 (PDT)
: I don't know this for sure either, but unfortunately I don't think anyone still active on the wiki is capable of easily changing usernames. However, you can at least edit your talk page signature in [[Special:Preferences]], and you might be able to change the visual title of your user page as well. --[[User:Blixibon|Blixibon]] ([[User talk:Blixibon|talk]]) 17:22, 13 July 2024 (PDT)

== Saysounds playing existing .wav but NOT new .wav ==

I just took over this TF2 dedicated server from a guy who had it for 10 years, and after a week he was unreachable
Saysound plugin is working perfect. Have 30 word sounds and 10 intros .wav file that play perfect when a player enters/leaves when triggered or from the text window
The file spec varies ALL are 16 bit, All are .wav but bite rate varies 1411-705-352 and they all play.
IT'S Only new .wav file that will not play. Running sv_pure = 0 made a new .wav file and added it to /sound file folder and updated my saysounds.cfg file 
and it should have played... but no......will NOT play.
using "STEAM_0xxxxx" // trigger for specific STEAM ID.
The new .wav sound is in the same folder as the old .wav tf/sound. Since I did not build this server is there someplace else I should be listing the file??
When wav1 is tied to my steam ID it plays when wav2 (new wav) is tied to my steam ID it does not play but the text is printed out.
Have a big bash planned for Halloween and donors get a intro .wav. could use some advice
Thanks

== VDC, please let us upload sound files. ==

<big>'''Dear admins @ VDC!'''</big><br><br>
Please let us upload sound files to the wiki! There are many important wiki pages that need sound to be understood easier. From func_buttons to soundscapes, sound files on wiki pages are incredibly important and should be easily accessible. Although Hammer's in-built sound preview system is more or less useful, it doesn't let us hear soundscapes, hard-coded button noises, and many other things I must be forgetting.<br><br>

== Mark keyvalue as being missing from the FGD, but only in a specific game? ==

How would I do this? This is mainly a question for [[point_spotlight]]'s Ignore Solid keyvalue, which is available for the following: {{srcmp}} {{tf2branch}} {{gmod}} {{bms}}

However, for {{bms}} it's not in the FGD by default, which is not the case for all other games it exists in. How would I indicate this? As far as I can tell, nofgd=1 can only be used to indicate an ''entire keyvalue'' is not in the FGD for every single game it exists in, which is not the case, and no doubt false for many other keyvalues.
