Proposal: Expanding Scope for Notable Community Workshop Content

Hello,

I am writing to propose a potential policy update regarding how we handle Portal 2 Steam Workshop content on the wiki. Currently, individual Workshop maps are strictly excluded unless tied to major full-conversion mods. While keeping mainspace clutter-free is important, this leaves a significant gap in documenting notable community puzzles and mechanics.

Rather than allowing unrestricted map entries, I would like to propose establishing clear, strict Notability Guidelines for Workshop content—such as requiring maps to have achieved specific Workshop awards, official Valve features, or clear subscriber thresholds before qualifying for a mainspace entry.

Would it be possible to discuss or review this at an upcoming staff meeting? Establishing defined criteria would allow dedicated editors to document standout community creations while keeping the wiki structured and manageable.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Camden12343 (talk) 15:48, 19 September 2026 (UTC)

As I've mentioned a few times, coverage of standalone Workshop items is out of scope for this wiki. Please see our Community content guidelines for the limited list of items that we do cover. I know this is not the answer you were hoping for, but our stance remains unchanged. — Tark 02:23, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

Notices

A notice such a this is not going to prevent moving files. User files need to abide by rules, which you were already told about before (but have removed and not replied to). Any future content will still be moved if done incorrectly. For clarity: Your files should be prefixed with User Camden12343, should have the appropriate license (e.g., if it's a Portal 2 screenshot, use {{ScreenshotP2}}), and use the category Category:User images.
