Like this?, hmm I would love to help, I just wonder on what o.o [[User:Atlas|Atlas]] 13:02, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
:::: Better late than never I think. Would be great if it works across both TF2 and Portal 2 for the Bots. Before Valve leaves Portal behind. Any news on the possible sequel to ''Two''? If yes, this has a chance, since the TF2 guys are affiliated with them, and we're allied ei them.

== Conversion and Time Machine. ==
Hi guys!
I'm back from a bit of ''Portal'' hiatus for some TF2. Anyways, I'm back.
The first thing I did was download the ''Thinking with Time Machine'' mod for ''Portal 2.'' Playing it for half an hour, wrote a bit. But apparently no one plays ''Portal'' nowadays.
So should ''I'' be the one who writes it all? It's going to be fun! :D
Also, everyone watch the ''Conversion'' release. Maybe a video guide?

:The sole reason why I haven't been either playing Portal/TF2 or editing wikis is because of my lack of internet connection at home. I'll write a good bit more whenever I can stop using the library as my connection to world. I've got big plans for this wiki and for the TF2 Wiki. Until then, just try your best to be fair and write well.  [[User:Sven|~Sven~]] ([[User talk:Sven|talk]]) 19:21, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
== I made a Steam group for the Wiki ==
It was something ad-lib'd. But if we were to have a shot at Gaben, we need a page. You lab boys get to this page, and add me.

Will mods and admins here kindly approach me so we can cooperate on this. thanks!

== Proposed changes to Index ==
Mechanics - Add the following:
Thermal Discouragement Beam,
Hard Light Bridge,
Excursion Funnel.
Characters - Remove Hoopy the Hoop, add Doug Rattmann.
TDBs, HLBs and Excursion Funnels are too major mechanics to be excluded.
Hoopy the Hoop is even less of a 'character' than the Weighted Companion Cube, and has no reason to be listed as one.
Doug Rattmann is a character, and a significant one at that. He should be listed.
If you agree/disagree with my proposed changes, discuss below. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:Informativeaccount|Informativeaccount]]''' ([[User talk:Informativeaccount|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/Informativeaccount|contribs]]) </small>
I agree with the character change, and partially the mechanic change. However, the rest of the mechanics are listed on the 'Test Chambers' page. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:Ejjgjrjgjjjvjrjdjwie|Ejjgjrjgjjjvjrjdjwie]]''' ([[User talk:Ejjgjrjgjjjvjrjdjwie|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/Ejjgjrjgjjjvjrjdjwie|contribs]]) </small>
== How do i add a page ==
Im new, how do i add a page? — [[User:LargeP0RTAL|LargeP0RTAL]]
Hello,
First, you should add 4 tildes at the end of your message in order to sign it.
For your question, research the name of the page you want to create, and then you have the message ''Create the page "<pagename>" on this wiki!" under the search bar. Just click on <pagename> to start creating the page.
If the page you want to create is a translation of a page already created, just go to the english version of the page, then go to the adress bar and just add the suffix ''/<languagediminutive>''. For instance, if you want to do a french translation, add the suffix ''/fr''.
Sincerely yours,

== Random Page ==

== Asked about the IRC being broken ==
I can't access the IRC chat. Is it broken? Deleted? Or is my PC trippin'.. I'm sorry for using this for asking on the main page but I don't see any alternatives. bobanchoban77/frapsed 19:36, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
: Hello! The web version is available here: https://web.libera.chat/?#pwiki.

== Blog Post widget  ==
The Blog Post updater says the last post was on October 2, 2015 (2732 days ago), however the Portal 2 blog just posted on February 18, 2021. Am I misinterpreting something?

== Portal Link in Main Page Index ==
The link in the index for the list of games ('''Portal''') should link to "[[Portal (game)]]," not just "[[Portal]]," as that links towards the list of related articles. Since the [[Portals]] article is listed in the index, I think somebody who has editing permissions should take a look and address this.

: Good point, done. Reason it was doing this before was for the sake of uniformity/consistency with those dict string templates. I don't think it's necessary to use those for the link itself though. -- [[User:Lagg|Lagg]] [[Image:User Lagg OPTF2 icon.png|link=User talk:Lagg]] 05:46, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
