New task force

This task force has been created to help co-ordinate work on articles relating to Valve Software, of which quite a large amount are in a terrible state at present. -- Sabre (talk) 16:54, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Copyedited the Team Fortress Classic article

I Copyedited the Team Fortress classic article. Don't Stone me if I made a mistake, it's my first wiki edit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gravelz (talk • contribs) 15:57, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

The edits you made were fine, no problems. If to you the text flows naturally, makes sense and lacks any spelling or grammar problems, then all's good. -- Sabre (talk) 17:17, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Team Fortress 1

Why is it part of this task force? --Mika1h (talk) 23:23, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Its a logical extension of the task force's scope: Valve did TFC and TF2, hiring the creators of TF1 to do it. TF is intrinsically linked to Valve, so it makes sense to add one article that is of historical importance to the company. -- Sabre (talk) 08:32, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Counter-Strike: Source

This article is desperate need of more info. This article should be FA by now. It has no gameplay or no information about the game whatsoever. Can article have a complete revamp?. --SkyWalker (talk) 05:34, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Half-Life: Uplink (film) under discussion for deletion

The article entitled Half-Life: Uplink (film) is being considered for deletion. I understand that this article is not under this task force, and I also understand that it is an unofficial part of the Half-Life canon, and is not endorsed by Valve. However, since it is related to Half-Life, I thought it would be worth notifying this task force, as it probably has members on it who are interested in all general apsects of Half-Life. Thank you for reading. OpenSeven (talk) 00:02, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Half-Life 2 or Source engine mods?

Right now the articles/categories/lists are mixed between "Half-Life 2 mods" and "Source engine mods". "Half-Life 2 mods" was the status quo from a while ago before the mods started being for the Source engine, not just Half-Life 2. Should the remaining usage of "Half-Life 2 mods" be converted? If so should a Source engine category be created to separate Half-Life 2 articles from the mods/technologies? BJ^Talk 19:23, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

The remaining usage of "HL2 mod" should probably be put out of commission, mods tend only to need an official Valve game powered by Source now rather than HL2 itself, thus making "HL2 mod" somewhat inaccurate. Category:Half-Life 2 mods should just be renamed as "Source mods". -- Sabre (talk) 13:28, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Are Steam related things under this groups purview?

Steamworks is becoming very popular for PC games, most of the major 2010 PC titles are using it. So I feel it's about time for a list, similar to the "List of games with DirectX 11 support" style. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_games_using_Steamworks

Mods

Just a suggestion, but maybe we should cover Mods for the games as well? Example, Garrys Mod. I want to make this project my main focus so i'll definitely work on adding them to our coverage if necessary. Catch me on my talk page if you need anything. G. Fire (talk) 21:28, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
