Putting the "Community" in Valve Developer Community

The Valve Developer Community is hosted and administered by Valve, but the wiki itself is almost entirely community-driven. Every page you see with an Edit tab, including this one, is likely written by someone in the community (though Valve staff are sometimes among them). If you want to do the same, go right ahead!

There are a number of other ways you can help out:

Go to the Tasks page and see what needs work!
Participate in ongoing discussions (see Ongoing discussions)
Want to translate articles into another language? See Alternative Languages for more information!

Noticeboards
Noticeboards are places where editors can ask questions and request assistance from others who are familiar with the topic(s) covered by each board.
Help Desk	For asking questions about the wiki in general.
Administrators' noticeboard	For items that need the attention of admins.
Translators' noticeboard	For items that need the attention of translators. Also used for sidebar translations.
Reasons for speedy deletion	For discussing reasons to delete a certain article.

Centralized Discussions
Other centralized pages to discuss topics with the community. Comparable to Wikipedia's village pump.
Discussion	General discussion about the wiki.
Proposals	For proposing changes to the wiki.
Main Page Talk	For discussing the wiki's main page.

Community Resources

The Valve Developer Community has a vast number of resources available for modders, by modders:

External Sites

The Valve Developer Community links to many additional websites which can assist modding:

Bringing your work to the community

The Valve Developer Community once served as a hub for promoting Source mods and users willing to/looking for help, although that side of the community has migrated to other platforms over the years.

If you are creating a custom mod or map pack, and the game involved doesn't have a Steam Workshop, you may be interested in publishing it on ModDB or GameBanana. Depending on the circumstances, you might even be able to publish your mod on Steam as its own application. Mods which are notable or have their own modding ecosystems continue to be documented on this wiki. You can see all of the mods documented on the VDC, past or present, in Category:Mods.

Mods which are notable or have their own modding ecosystems continue to be documented on this wiki. You can see all of the mods documented on the VDC, past or present, in [[:Category:Mods]].
