Template talk:Un tokens

Aurum dragon

Need some help here, the dragon doesn't register as gold (it shows up as green) --Hunter (talk) 07:45, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

Urgh... Of course it would show up as green. The macro parses each letter: WUBRG and assigns the colors. For Pink I added well P for Pink. And that is essentially what needs to be done adding a single letter for Gold. I would suggest A for Aurum. - Yandere Sliver 07:51, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

Unfinity - Eternal legal cards

Should the non-Acorn stamped, eternal-legal cards that make tokens be placed here, with the other Unfinity tokens, or should they go in their respective regular categories. The example here would be Attempted Murder, which creates Storm Crow tokens. Should it be listed here as an Un-token or in Template:Named tokens? -- RivalRowan (talk) 08:00, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

I don't know. Maybe we should dissolve the template for un-tokens. The lines are getting very blurry --Hunterofsalvation (talk) 08:24, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

I think there's value in keeping the un-tokens but restricting it to the types that are exclusively in silver-borders (i.e. Acorn cards from here on out). It will prevent having token templates for one-of creatures like Ape, Chicken, Gold Dragon, etc. Anything that has a black-boarder version just goes into that table (e.g. the 1/1 green Squirrel, 0/1 white Goat, etc.) -- RivalRowan (talk) 08:37, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

That seems feasible, we could mark the relevant squirrel tokens etc with a or a . But what about Template:Clown tokens. Should it be integrated in the un-tokens? Some Clown creatures might be eternal.... --Hunterofsalvation (talk) 11:15, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Have to admit I wasn't thinking about the Clowns when I wrote the previous comment. The short answer is we should just wait and see what the spoilers bring. Is Surprise Party implying that there are multiple different Clown tokens or just that there will be multiple 1/1 white Clown Robot token arts?

The long answer is that I'm not sure. It depends on what the wiki wants as standard going forward. In that respect, I think the Clown tokens should be Un tokens until such time as spoilers or future expansions prove otherwise. The current Template:Clown tokens could be chalked up to the pain of the silver-boarder-to-acorn transition.

Agreed. Robots have the same problem. They are listed as acorn type, but also appear in the eternal Warhammer 40K. --Hunterofsalvation (talk) 12:47, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

I've updated Template:Squirrel tokens with the Un tokens. Is this the format you were thinking? If so, I'll do the same for the other relevant tokens and then update this template. -- RivalRowan (talk) 22:52, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Yes, the seems to work. Good job. --Hunterofsalvation (talk) 03:48, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

I've updated all the token templates except Employee — Ape, Construct, Dragon, Faerie, Gnome, Goat, Goblin, Homunculus, Octopus, Performer, Rogue, Sheep, Spy, Squirrel, Zombie and Template:Named tokens. I'm having a bit of an issue with the Template:Zombie tokens pulling all the called templates instead of just the one Zombie Employee token. Before I reduce the Un tokens list, are there any changes to the format that should be made?
The final Un token list will be:

Balloon, Beeble, Brainiac, Chicken (Although this is obsolete so maybe should be deleted as well), Expansion-Symbol, Giant Teddy Bear (I'm leaving this here only because Teddy Bear will be here. It should be moved under Giant if I'm being honest with myself), Teddy Bear and Sketch -- RivalRowan (talk) 23:50, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

(<<) Wow, nice work y'all! The new categorizations and notation makes sense to me. - jerodast (talk) 18:51, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

Rename to Acorn-exclusive tokens

Acorn is becoming the preferred term for all non-eternal concepts, including e.g. holiday card Present which I just added to this template, even though it is not in fact marked with an acorn, nor is it from an un-set. (I agree with the editor who created that page calling it acorn regardless.)

The section title this template is used under on the full list is currently "Silver-bordered tokens". This has become outdated with new Unfinity acorn cards like Octo Opus. While other than my Present addition, this template name was accurate in only including Un-set content, it seems better to just change both to "Acorn-exclusive tokens".

I'll go ahead and make the change on the full list page, but since these templates get a little crazy I figured I'd float it here before doing a page move.- jerodast (talk) 18:50, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

To clarify, not like, ALL all non-eternal concepts, just all the silly ones that aren't categorized otherwise. The tokens list puts HTR and test cards separate which is fine.- jerodast (talk) 18:58, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
