Is it cool with everyone if I link the DM weapons to their HL2 counterparts? Smelltheashes 20:56, December 4, 2010 (UTC)

Since they are the equivalents, then yes. That's fine. Bramblepath 10:13, December 5, 2010 (UTC)

This is too similar to Team Fortress 2... User:DarkusAlpha21:58, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Unofficial community-made maps

Should notable community-made HL2:DM maps not included with the game be documented in this wiki, such as Avalon? As an example, the TF2 wiki documents community-made maps not officially added to TF2 (i.e. Walkway). --Commando Booce (talk) 22:40, 19 September 2025 (MSK)

As you added in your edit, the real threshold to meet here is notability, and note that this doesn't simply mean popularity. As it happens, the map Avalon is in a unique position in that it's the only fanmade multiplayer map to be officially (and publicly) judged and recognized by Valve but happened to fall just short of being adopted into the game itself. Given this extraordinary circumstance, it's really the only fanmade multiplayer level out there to possess a notable status. I'd say this warrants inclusion on the wiki, and I had been planning on making an article for Avalon for some time now because of this. Marphy (talk) 06:54, 23 September 2025 (MSK)
