The source for the claim that Mike Morasky is the composer for the game is this tweet [1], where Mike just quote tweets the CS2 account with the words "Dig it!" - which doesn't really prove anything. I know he probably did compose it, so I won't delete it from the article, but do we have a better source for this? I just had a look and couldn't anything reliable, just stuff like IMDB (user generated, so that claim was probably based off this article) and random unofficial steam workshop posts.

Do you think it's a good idea to get CS2 to redirect directly to this article?
I've just changed CS2 to redirect to CS2 (disambiguation), because previously it went to carbon disulfide (CS2), even though nearly all the other topics listed CS2 disambiguation page get more traffic than it [2].
Seeing as Counter-Strike 2 is very commonly referred to as "CS2", and it gets more wikitraffic than the other 'CS2' articles, should CS2 redirect directly to the Counter-Strike 2 article instead of the disambiguation? Search engine results already overwhelmingly point to Counter-Strike 2 when searching "CS2".
I'm asking rather than doing because I don't know the politics or the process involved around "claiming" redirects like this, or what is the method for deciding priority (still pretty new to editing) so wanted a second opinion before meddling further. BugGhost 🪲👻 18:56, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
Yesterday I added a Monetization section (cited), but its since been largely reverted, with a small portion of the info being moved to a new Revenue subheading. Just wanted to discuss what other editors think about the inclusion of a section like this.
Main points in the section were:
These points have now been removed from the article, apart from the last one. This section was intended to be a jumping off point in order to discuss related topics such as:
My view is that the skins economy that revolves around CS2 is too huge and complex to just put in what is currently in the Revenue section, and it's had enough sustained coverage to warrant some discussion on this article. A simple Revenue section would make sense for a game with a more straightforward monetization model (say, Elden Ring, which just earns money through copies sold), but it's too reductive for CS2. Seeing as it was reverted just wanted to get other view points on this. BugGhost 🪲👻 09:43, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Can anyone tell me if the image showing the volumetric smokes in this website would be allowed to be uploaded as non-free content? Mainly because I think it shows much clearly how different the smokes are from CSGO with the new shadows compared with the article's current image. Masatami ( let's talk!) 22:58, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
