Rather than "color percentages", what are "statistics" or "color distribution"? Color percentages is plainly ungrammatical and poor language.


==RE: Account on MTGS Forums==
Also, considering you've been arduously updating this, have you thought about designing a neat and nice template that not only helps you do this but also helps people verify this? You could code a search link to magiccards.info or Gatherer for each thing. Most importantly, you could also include how current that info is, 'cause last edited date isn't necessarily indicative of the currency or correctness of the info itself.
Hi Unistardust,


Could I get the screen name for your account on MTGS, the forum. We're trying to arrange such that you duly have access to the behind-the-scenes planning forum? Thanks in advance. --[[User:Magic Mage|<b>M</b>agic <b>M</b>age]] ([[User_talk:Magic_Mage|talk]]) 01:56, 1 September 2012 (EDT)

==Merge miscellaneous effect/mechanics articles?==
I think we should do that rather than create an article for everything.
 
There's an argument that we should have a gazillion articles so that pages don't become long but I think that's a fallacious and poor argument as articles don't become long and, even if they were to become long, we'd reasonably break them up as appropriate (e.g., into individual pages and chuck a {{Nwt|Main}}, into A{{-}}L and M{{-}}Z listings, whatever).
 
I'd be interested in hearing your ideas as well. --[[User:Magic Mage|<font color="dark"><b>M</b></font><font color="darkred">agic</font> <font color="dark"><b>M</b></font><font color="darkred">age</font>]] ([[User_talk:Magic_Mage|<font color="red">talk!</font>]]) 11:40, 15 October 2012 (EDT)

RE: "Color percentages"

Rather than "color percentages", what are "statistics" or "color distribution"? Color percentages is plainly ungrammatical and poor language.

Also, considering you've been arduously updating this, have you thought about designing a neat and nice template that not only helps you do this but also helps people verify this? You could code a search link to magiccards.info or Gatherer for each thing. Most importantly, you could also include how current that info is, 'cause last edited date isn't necessarily indicative of the currency or correctness of the info itself.

Just a thought, you know. --Magic Mage (talk!) 10:15, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
