== Template:Infobox ability‎‎ ==
==Healing Grace vs. Healing Salve==
I had initially put this pair on the card comparisons (or maybe was about to), but hesitated. Yes, Healing Grace is almost always preferable to Healing Salve, but only with the latter can you give other players life. Is that enough of an advantage, or an I nit-picking, similar to those fringe situations where you want a creature to be smaller and/or higher CMC, etc. I don’t know for sure. Something to consider.

== Functional Reprint ==
== Card numbers ==


is <c>Ringwarden Owl</c> and <c>Dragon-Style Twins</c> similar enough to count as functional reprints? -- [[User:Hanmac|Hanmac]] ([[User talk:Hanmac|talk]]) 16:51, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
Hi! With all due respect, I trust you have a legitimate source for the W17 card numbers. I am interested in seeing it, mainly because my calculations show a minimum of 18 cards in order for the decks to be Standard even on release day. Here is the "bare minimum" list of required reprints I have come up with, which oddly includes 5 whites, 5 blues, 2 blacks, 1 red, and 5 greens:

: If W16 is a good bench mark then the welcome decks contain Kaladesh, Aether Revolt, Amonkhet and W17 cards. If the Amonkhet card list from the article is complete - which I think is the case -, every card which is not part of Kaladesh, Aether Revolt or in the list is likely to be W17 card.

== Rulings for new mechanics ==
==IP blocks==
Hello, Pcj here from the [[gphelp:Gamepedia Rapid Anti-Spam Patrol (GRASP)|GRASP team]]. I noticed in the past you have used ''infinite global'' block to combat vandalism from IP addresses/users who aren't logged in. Per [[gphelp:Blocking users|"Blocking users" on the help wiki]], the standard for IP address blocks is two weeks, as IP addresses are dynamically assigned (and the smarter vandals/spambots use proxies/VPNs to show a false IP anyway). It would be preferable to only use two weeks, or short of that, at least make the block only local to this wiki. I'll be unblocking users whose blocks are past the two week limit. If there are any problems with that we can address them as they arise. Thank you. --[[User:Pcj|Pcj]] ([[User talk:Pcj|talk]]) 12:52, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

:: Could you make sure to add inline references in this case? I feel uncomfortable about unreferenced rulings - they could come from any random player who disagrees with a judge.

== Protected edit request ==
Hi,
I took another tilt at the [[Template:Navbox]] today and it looks like (for very good security reasons) there's no way to force the appropriate style information directly into the template/module without a staggering amount of work to mentally unroll Wikipedia's CSS. Could we try adding it directly to [[MediaWiki:Common.css]]? The relevant code is as follows, and could be pasted anywhere outside of the curly brackets in the top half of the file. If this edit does what I'm hoping, the blurb at the top of [[Test]] about "Block settings/Other planes" should become a properly finished navigation footer. --[[User:Corveroth|Corveroth]] ([[User talk:Corveroth|talk]]) 23:54, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
Re whether <c>Savage Smash</c> depicts Domri or not, I was thinking that the hair, left shoulder armor, and in general tattoos & clothing are matches for Domri, but the artist's model is substantially more muscular than on his Planeswalker cards... and the card specifically gives +2/+2 to the target creature, so beefing him up was intentional.  That said, if you want to wait for an official statement from Wizards or the artist as to whom it is, I'm not going to object. : ) [[Special:Contributions/193.37.252.140|193.37.252.140]] 17:36, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

:: [[Template:Navbox]] is a useful template for consistent navboxes, borrowed straight from Wikipedia. [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] is one of the major stylesheets governing the appearance of this website, and because it's so important and universal, it's protected. Our copy of the navbox template is broken, largely because Wikipedia has style rules that our Common.css is lacking. The above line of code, copied in its entirety, ''should'' contain the style rules necessary to make the navbox template mostly functional (and it's highly specific, so it won't touch anything outside of that template: note all of the references to ".navbox" and ".navbar"). So, I'm asking that you add that line of code to Common.css.

== CSS class for column-count for lists ==
So, I know it says that the promo 1/8 for 2016 is unknown/unreleased, but it was supposed to be Stoneforge Mystic. It got pulled to replace a GP promo that was for whatever reason pulled.


I don't know if you are the right person for that, but while searching for better ways to style this, [[Token/Full List]],
I managed to acquire a copy marked as a Judge promo rather than a GP promo (not sure how to provide picture here), in case proof is needed that it was at one point a Judge promo.
the place where the card list is split in three columns, i did come to the css style column-count,
the problem is that i cant use it there because it does need to applied to the ul element which is auto-generated by the list.
so my request: add the following block to the CSS of the side and i can use classes to make that dynamic.


<pre>
My question is, would it be appropriate to make a note of that on the Judge Gift page?  [[User:The RoguePyro|The RoguePyro]] ([[User talk:The RoguePyro|talk]]) 12:36, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
.ul-column-count-3 > ul {
: Sure, go ahead. That seems to be relevant. You can provide a picture with "upload file". --[[User:Hunterofsalvation|Hunter]] ([[User talk:Hunterofsalvation|talk]]) 16:44, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
    -webkit-column-count: 3; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
    -moz-column-count: 3; /* Firefox */
    column-count: 3;
}
</pre>
so i can add "ul-column-count-3" as class to the td and it does style the ul element with the card list.
: It's all gibberish to me, but if you think it improves the wiki.... Done. --[[User:Hunterofsalvation|Hunter]] ([[User talk:Hunterofsalvation|talk]]) 16:06, 18 December 2015 (UTC)

I opted not to for the sake of pure quotation of the source material, in order to reinforce that those text representations are fully canonical. I have some ideas I'll mull over - in the meantime, feel free to offer feedback over at [[Module_talk:CR]]. --[[User:Corveroth|Corveroth]] ([[User talk:Corveroth|talk]]) 23:27, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

Looks like you do most of the edits on the MTG Secret Lair page.  Would you mind if I edited it to expand the Astrology Lands into their separate Drops? John
Just curious, where did you get the story blurb from for Shadows Over Innistrad? {{unsigned|23.28.100.245}}

Healing Grace vs. Healing Salve

I had initially put this pair on the card comparisons (or maybe was about to), but hesitated. Yes, Healing Grace is almost always preferable to Healing Salve, but only with the latter can you give other players life. Is that enough of an advantage, or an I nit-picking, similar to those fringe situations where you want a creature to be smaller and/or higher CMC, etc. I don’t know for sure. Something to consider.

Gatherer Update Monkey vs Ape

Gatherer did updated, now it should have Kaladesh cards. But i don't have a summary yet. and the Big change is that because Monkey is back, there are some cards changed. (and Monkey needs its own page again i think) --Hanmac (talk) 12:26, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Oh god, the German translation will be so awkward because both are translated into the same word "Affe". Well on that note silver-bordered cards were not updated, but the black border cards indeed were. - Yandere Sliver 16:42, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
there is no Problem, "Ape" as Magic Creature Type is translated as "Menschenaffe" to differ it from the "Affe" for Monkey --Hanmac (talk) 09:26, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Card numbers

Hi! With all due respect, I trust you have a legitimate source for the W17 card numbers. I am interested in seeing it, mainly because my calculations show a minimum of 18 cards in order for the decks to be Standard even on release day. Here is the "bare minimum" list of required reprints I have come up with, which oddly includes 5 whites, 5 blues, 2 blacks, 1 red, and 5 greens:

  1. C Divine Verdict
  2. C Glory Seeker
  3. C Standing Troops
  4. C Stormfront Pegasus
  5. R Victory's Herald
  6. U Air Elemental
  7. C Coral Merfolk
  8. C Inspiration
  9. C Stealer of Secrets
  10. C Tricks of the Trade
  11. C Bloodhunter Bat
  12. C Raise Dead
  13. C Thundering Giant
  14. R Garruk's Horde
  15. C Rootwalla
  16. C Stalking Tiger
  17. C Stampeding Rhino
  18. U Wing Snare

If W16 is a good bench mark then the welcome decks contain Kaladesh, Aether Revolt, Amonkhet and W17 cards. If the Amonkhet card list from the article is complete - which I think is the case -, every card which is not part of Kaladesh, Aether Revolt or in the list is likely to be W17 card. That is just my interpretation of what we know so far. - Yandere Sliver 21:57, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

IP blocks

Hello, Pcj here from the GRASP team. I noticed in the past you have used infinite global block to combat vandalism from IP addresses/users who aren't logged in. Per "Blocking users" on the help wiki, the standard for IP address blocks is two weeks, as IP addresses are dynamically assigned (and the smarter vandals/spambots use proxies/VPNs to show a false IP anyway). It would be preferable to only use two weeks, or short of that, at least make the block only local to this wiki. I'll be unblocking users whose blocks are past the two week limit. If there are any problems with that we can address them as they arise. Thank you. --Pcj (talk) 12:52, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

Savage Smash

Hi, Re whether Savage Smash depicts Domri or not, I was thinking that the hair, left shoulder armor, and in general tattoos & clothing are matches for Domri, but the artist's model is substantially more muscular than on his Planeswalker cards... and the card specifically gives +2/+2 to the target creature, so beefing him up was intentional. That said, if you want to wait for an official statement from Wizards or the artist as to whom it is, I'm not going to object. : ) 193.37.252.140 17:36, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

His, sorry about the the non-communication. I really don't think it is Domri, but rather a random Gruul berserker. The haircut seems to be in vogue. But as you say, we can always add it again if there is an official source corroborating your view. --Hunter (talk) 05:31, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

Judge Promo 2016

So, I know it says that the promo 1/8 for 2016 is unknown/unreleased, but it was supposed to be Stoneforge Mystic. It got pulled to replace a GP promo that was for whatever reason pulled.

I managed to acquire a copy marked as a Judge promo rather than a GP promo (not sure how to provide picture here), in case proof is needed that it was at one point a Judge promo.

My question is, would it be appropriate to make a note of that on the Judge Gift page? The RoguePyro (talk) 12:36, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Sure, go ahead. That seems to be relevant. You can provide a picture with "upload file". --Hunter (talk) 16:44, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

English revision required

Hi mate! Happy I can help a bit other players. Probably someone native English should review my text blocks I think :) I have started adding links and references, but it will take some time I think, checking all the linked pages and the board-game wiki too. Let me know if I'm doing something wrong, not really expert with the wikia interface yet :) Have a nice week end!

You're doing fine. And by the way, I'm not a native English speaker either :-) --Hunter (talk) 16:27, 12 October 2019 (UTC)

Profile's problem

Sorry if I bother you, but I have serious problems with my profile: it says "A global user by that name was not found", and I can't see my achievements, my friends, and other stuffs. How did this happen? How can I fix it? --LordChaos000 (talk) 18:33, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

I'm not a technical guy, but there seem to be some memory issues after the latest update. Lets wait a while to see if it autocorrects. --Hunter (talk) 20:06, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

-- Thanks a lot --LordChaos000 (talk) 08:37, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

Canon

Canon can't become canon unless people know about it. My hope is that by documenting all that *could* become canon that future authors will recognize it as such. Bob the WikipediaN (talkcontribs) 16:01, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

But in light of your concern I will hold off before adding anything else. Bob the WikipediaN (talkcontribs) 16:03, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
