Translate extension
Hello, I see that this is a multilingual wiki. Have you considered using the Translate extension, which allows to easily make your MediaWiki multilingual? It makes you save enormous amounts of time which otherwise is wasted on templates wizardry, manual synchronisation of pages and so on, scarying off most translators; and offers many other aid to efficient translation. Now it's also available in handy tarball bundles. The page explains how to get help and more information, and there is extensive documentation; asking on #mediawiki-i18n @ freenode is probably your best chance for immediate assistance if needed. Thanks, Nemo 15:58, 13 January 2013 (PST)
I see the chinese translation but can not find this page
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Main_Page:zh-cn So,please add it!
- The otherlang templates on the other (non-English) pages have not been updated to include this page. Also, the links on the page should be updated to point to any chinese versions of pages that exist instead of the English ones (notably SDK_Docs:zh-cn. The translated title also needs to be added to the otherlang template. --JeffLane 16:34, 23 January 2013 (PST)
Misspelled News Content
In the most recent news update, it says "The Source SDK is has been updated" when it should say The Source SDK has been updated --V360 09:41, 19 May 2013 (PDT)
New location of the SDK tools
A news post should be made, explaining that the tools included with the Source SDK can no longer be used, and that tools are included with single games now. --Lonaowna 10:10, 19 May 2013 (PDT)
- Fixed with 2013 SDK release, thanks! --Lonaowna 23:53, 26 June 2013 (PDT)
Steamcmd install - Batch file
This is my first contribution, it's not big, but I think that it could be helpful to someone :)
Into this file, you can populate (with your personal edit: notepad ++ or another)
1) Path where your steamcmd is installed (only for one time) 2) Path where you want to instal or update your games.
This batch file covers only Counter Strike Series.
Counter Strike: 1.6; Source; Condition Zero and GO.
I hope this tool helps you to install more easily your servers :)
Download: [2]
Any questions, please send a e-mail to info@hyperserver.com.ar

Minor changes to some wiki pages
I have build .net library that implements server query protocol,Rcon protocol,master server query protocol.it can listen to remote logs and u can subscribe to different logged events. here is the link : http://querymaster.codeplex.com/
while building it i noticed few things ,
-while testing on multipacket compressed source responses,the decompressed size of response was 0 and was a short value but "Server Queries"(https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_queries) wiki page states that it should be long and is equal to size of packet after decompression.I could find only 1 public server that compresses the response.So I would need a confirmation.and if my findings are right then that page should be updated.
-Cs 1.6 protocol 47 does not respond to query messages mentioned in the "Server Queries"(https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_queries) page.It responses only to half life protocol queries(noticed it while testing my library).the responses are same though. I think this should be added to that page.
-There is no wiki page for Gold Source RCON protocol.I had to research/experiment to identify all the pieces of the protocol.I think even that should be added to wiki as it will save lot of trouble for those who are trying to implement it.
-Source RCON protocol page(https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Source_RCON_Protocol) states that maximum packet size is 4096.I have received packets bit larger than that (around 4130) (CS:Source server, cvarlist command).I would say maximum possible size should be kept to 4200.
-Addition to "HL Log Standard"(https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/HL_Log_Standard) wiki Page : server logs server shut down event. log message : Server shutdown

Twitch Logo In Steam Name
I made the twitch logo into a private character to try and put before and after my steam name "BeatStr33t" but only boxes like this one "" appear. I think that putting the twitch logo could be a hip new thing to show people you are a streamer, but not have to put the whole url for ex. "twitch.tv/beatstr33t" as my name. I also see that twitch is trying to move to the social media side more so I believe that this would go along with that plan.
- Because the Twitch logo is not a proper Windows/Mac emoji. --Andrew (talk) 19:03, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

Transportation needs= we give you the amazing #transportation facility because we know packing is easy somehow but shifting is not. Driving in different weather condition and taking risk to drive in long nights in destroyed roads is a risk taking thing. But still we work and we continue the process without a full stop. Having water poof containers through which your stuffs will be shifted are truly safe because heavy rainfall cannot damage the things.
Social security= well if you are hiring domestic or road side vendors then there is no security of your stuffs. Because they don’t have even license and permanent address. So, for complains where would you go, where will you search them? Such a hectic question but many people pass from this situation. Whereas if you are hiring us for your #relocation you and your stuffs are #safe with us because we give you insurance on it. And secondly we are a legal company we have our own office and we are even on various sites online talking to our clients for solving their queries. So you get a security with Packers and Movers Bangalore.
Driver license= the driver driving the trucks in which your stuffs are carrying out is a trained driver with license. We don’t have drivers without license because those drivers can be the robbers. And don’t worry we have a detailed information about our workers and they are genuine people working from many years with us. So you can blindly faith them.
Well I don’t think except this anything is left from which you can have problems or which disturbs you to think allot. The stress taking solution is in front you for what you are thinking about. Want to relocate from #Bangalore then hire Movers and Packers Bangalore and get the amazing shifting service form us to the destination you are travelling to.
If you are thinking about #relocation but still in confusion and #need more information to know about us then search on Packers and Movers Bidrahalli Bangalore and read the articles and view videos. We also offer insurance policy and warehouse services to our clients who carry heavy and expensive belongings and #shifting to a new location can’t find suitable area for establishing for those we have these additional services. Use them because these are for you only.
