It's a matter of opinion, but I believe "Water Omotics" could fit under either category, because "secondary female characteristics" are used to judge where or not a monster has an "overtly female appearance." My suggestion? Drop the "overtly female appearance" part and replace "Mist Valley Shaman" with "Water Omotics", since although both monsters look female in their OCG versions, "Water Omotics" is the easiest to identify as female in the TCG version. --[[User:UltimateKuriboh|UltimateKuriboh]] ([[User talk:UltimateKuriboh|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/UltimateKuriboh|contribs]]) 18:30, June 8, 2013 (UTC)
:As I understood it, the purpose of the "overtly female appearance" was for characters like "[[Dryad]]" who didn't have any secondary female characteristics in the frame of the image. Which really was the basis for my objection to placing "Water Omotics" there; it clearly ''does'' have secondary female characteristics. I suppose excluding "Dryad" and similar cards isn't that bad anyway though. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 18:37, June 8, 2013 (UTC)

== Deletion ==

So, kinda continuing on what Golden Key said above... when nominating an .jpg image for deletion that you've uploaded a .png version to replace it with, you want to make sure that .jpg is not being used anywhere else on the Wiki. To check where there an image is being used, scroll down to the bottom of the File page with the image, and you'll see a list of where the image is being currently used. I bring this up because of the 1st Edition "[[Edge Hammer]]" .png image you uploaded. You nominated the .jpg for deletion, but didn't replace the file name to .png in the locations where it was being used. Please make sure the image you are nominating for deletion isn't being used anywhere, before putting the Deletion notice on the page. --[[User:UltimateKuriboh|UltimateKuriboh]] ([[User talk:UltimateKuriboh|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/UltimateKuriboh|contribs]]) 14:08, November 7, 2013 (UTC)

:I wasn't even intentionally looking for it. However, now that I've gone and added that, it looks like it contradicts with the [http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/card_search.action?ope=2&cid=4008 official database]. I'm more inclined to trust contemporary sources, but it is worth noting that this information came out before the release so the release could possibly have been postponed (this is always a problem I have trying to find release dates for old things). It is important that my link indicates that SDY/SDK were the first sets to be released, whereas the database puts LOB before them. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:20, March 25, 2014 (UTC)

:Yeah, that would get you out of that; either way, it would be a good idea to specify why Diamond Dude works well with the card. As for the specific list of LP-gaining cards, I felt none of the examples were particularly exceptional, but if you do want them they would be better placed in the same point as the general tip. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:04, April 15, 2014 (UTC)

:I kinda understand why, but if you'd like to explain in more detail later, I'm certainly not going to object. The wiki is fairly inconsistent with how it formats Japanese names anyway, doing the [[Fairy]] way sometimes and the [[Archfiend]] way other times, with pages like [[Earthbound Immortal]] doing it in weird other ways (I personally prefer the Fairy way, since it makes it more clear that the translation is unofficial). Your Genryu edit ended up fitting none of them anyway, since it provided a romanization in place of a translation, then went on to provide a romanization and two possible translations anyway. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 04:23, May 10, 2014 (UTC)
::I would hesitate to point to any particular way and say "this is the only way we can go", anyways; if we do that, we're eventually going to find ourselves with a situation the method can't handle. That being said, let me immediately turn around and lay out "the only way we can go" in most cases. :razz:
::*Many cases are going to be pretty straightforward: we have an official English name, and it happens to be the only possible translation of the Japanese name (e.g. because the Japanese name is literally just a katakana reading of the English name), or at least a very obvious possible translation. In this case, we'd just have to do <code><nowiki>'''English name''' (Japanese name ''rōmaji'') is ...</nowiki></code> - easy peasy.
::*Quite a bit of the time, we're looking at something where the official English name is a much less obvious translation of the Japanese name, or Konami's simply decided for whatever reason to ignore the Japanese name altogether. Here we'd do something more like <code><nowiki>'''English name''', known as '''translation''' (Japanese name ''rōmaji'') in Japan, is ...</nowiki></code> Several of our archseries pages use this format already.
::*Now we get into the weirder stuff, for example, the English name doesn't follow from the Japanese name, as above, or we don't have an official English name yet, and in both cases the Japanese name has no obviously-best single translation. This is our Wyrm situation (I'm pretty sure "[[Six Samurai]]" is another example of this, too). So, to avoid "picking sides", as it were, we should use the romanization of the Japanese name instead of any translations, and then lay out later how the Japanese name can be translated.
::*Anything else should basically be dealt with on a case-by-case basis, I think.
::In all cases, if for some reason the Japanese name merits further exposition - for example, it features a pun that doesn't translate well, if it was even translated at all in the English name - we'd discuss it somewhere further down in the article: a separate paragraph in the lede, maybe, or if there's enough nuance or detail to merit it, a separate "Etymology" section. And obviously, these should be seen as "best practices", not absolute law or even really hard-and-fast guidelines; we should be able to adjust how we handle specific cases if for some reason we'd need to deviate from the norm. <span class="nowrap">「[[User:Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#00f;">ディノ</span><span style="color:#080;">奴</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#F90;">千？！</span>]]」<sup>[[wikipedia:Help:IJP|?]] · [[User talk:Dinoguy1000#top|☎ Dinoguy1000]]</sup></span> 12:57, May 10, 2014 (UTC)
::Aah, I should've actually looked at your examples before saving, too. Hindsight's 20/20, though, and better late than never, and whatever else glib sayings you might like to apply, so here we go. =D Archfiend is a straight-up example of my second case above, save for using "OCG" instead of "Japan". Fairy lies somewhere in between the first and second cases: the English name isn't a direct translation of the Japanese name, but it follows as a very obvious possible choice for a translator, so there's no real need to draw much attention to the fact the English name differs from the Japanese one. Earthbound Immortal is flat-out wrong and misleading; if the Japanese name does not translate to the English name, it should not be "attached" to the English name as though it does, even if the actual translation is offered later, and I'll be fixing it in a minute. <span class="nowrap">「[[User:Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#00f;">ディノ</span><span style="color:#080;">奴</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#F90;">千？！</span>]]」<sup>[[wikipedia:Help:IJP|?]] · [[User talk:Dinoguy1000#top|☎ Dinoguy1000]]</sup></span> 13:04, May 10, 2014 (UTC)
:::I understand that any kind of formatting standard for Japanese names in the intro is only going to be a guideline and not a rule. However, I think more consistency than at present is reasonable.
:::I think "in Japanese" is a more accurate description than either "in the OCG" or "in Japan" (due to the existence of the Korean/Chinese OCG for the former, and the latter due to the fact that it is based on language not location), but I know that those two are currently used vastly more frequently.
:::Fairy I actually picked intentionally, because its something that had a significant change from its Japanese name. I do not see the change Angel → Fairy as substantially different from Daemon → Archfiend (note that Fiend has virtually the same change as Archfiend as is formatted the same way as Fairy, so perhaps that would have been a better example). If the English name is not a reasonable translation of the Japanese name, formatting the intro differently based on how similar the names are is just introducing unnecessary subjectivity. I would rather see Fairy and Archfiend formatted the same way (I mentioned I preferred Fairy's formatting, but I would really rather just see all pages like this consistent).
:::Looking at the [[Six Samurai]] page, it seems to be done as a type 2 (once again as "in the OCG" though). The thing about the Wyrm page is that the two translations provided both mean virtually the same thing, whereas the other options provided in the note are substantially different, like "mythic" and "legendary". I should point out that {{Ruby|幻|げん}} is simply translated as "Phantom" on the [[Divine-Beast]] page, and "phantom" seems to be the usual translation in Yu-Gi-Oh for that kanji (see [[Phantom Beast]], [[Phantom Butterfly]]) when not in a standard kanji compound.
:::I completely agree about expanded sections to explain puns. If it's not a simple translation, then I understand having a paragraph about the different parts of it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 13:56, May 10, 2014 (UTC)
::::I suppose here we'll have to differ in opinion. =) If an English name is not a translation of the Japanese name, then formatting it as is done on Fairy is misleading, in my opinion, because it suggests that the English name is a reasonable translation. But this is one of those areas where it's all a bit gray, so it should really be decided case-by-case.
::::I didn't actually look at the Six Samurai page when I wrote out my comment, I just remember cheesedude asking one of the Org translators about it a while back and getting a response that boiled down to "it's complicated". The translations shown on Wyrm were just the first two translations listed in the note; I am not a translator myself, so I decided it would be better to couch my picks by just going for the straightforward "first two options" rather than trying to guess at what translations might be appropriately representative. I also didn't look at how the kanji has been translated elsewhere, otherwise I probably would have chosen "Phantom" for one of the translations. As it is, you should feel free to change one or both, as long as you explain clearly in the edit summary your reasoning. =) <span class="nowrap">「[[User:Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#00f;">ディノ</span><span style="color:#080;">奴</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Dinoguy1000|<span style="color:#F90;">千？！</span>]]」<sup>[[wikipedia:Help:IJP|?]] · [[User talk:Dinoguy1000#top|☎ Dinoguy1000]]</sup></span> 14:09, May 10, 2014 (UTC)

== OW preferred over card image? ==

Regarding your recent edit to "[[Orichalcos Deuteros]]" - according to [[User_talk:Blueapple128#TF_pics_vs._Anime_pics|this]] comment that UltimateKuriboh posted when I did the same thing for "[[Infernity Zero]]", the standard seems to always be to use the high-quality artwork image rather than the card image whenever the artwork image is available. There's loads of anime cards with fairly clear images (the first ones that come to mind besides "Infernity Zero" are "[[Neos Spiral Force]]" and "[[Razion, the Timelord]]") that have the artwork used instead as per the policy. Do you think the policy needs changing? [[User:Blueapple128|Blueapple128]] ([[User talk:Blueapple128|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Blueapple128|contribs]]) 03:51, June 1, 2014 (UTC)
:That is specifically about Tag Force images, not OW images; video game images are used over anime images when they are high quality. I'm pretty sure the policy is to use anime card images where they are images of the actual card over official website images.

== Moving images ==

Follow the instructions in the [[User talk:IgorThunderMaster#Adding to queue|Adding to queue]] topic. I say this because when you moved "[[Gamma The Magnet Warrior]]", you forgot to rename it in its Card Gallery page. (This will make moving images a lot easier.) Also, you don't have to "add to queue" unless you're doing a bunch of images located on a single page; just the "rename and replace" option will do for single images. --[[User:UltimateKuriboh|UltimateKuriboh]] ([[User talk:UltimateKuriboh|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/UltimateKuriboh|contribs]]) 19:22, June 13, 2014 (UTC)

== Out of Date ==

I was thinking about a way to mark "out of date" ruling instead of making a headline for them. What about making <strike>strikethrough</strike> line on them. Of course we will leave a note to explain why they are not applied. --[[User:Dlamash|Dlamash]] ([[User talk:Dlamash|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Dlamash|contribs]]) 09:07, June 17, 2014 (UTC)
:I had thought about that too, but a strikethrough is actually used in some ruling reversals (see [[Card Rulings:Witch of the Black Rose]], for example). I think the current method is better than strikethroughs, since there are times that strikethroughs are necessary. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:28, June 17, 2014 (UTC)
::The main reason they make a strikethrough is to tell people that this ruling is "out of date", If we put a note on every strikethrough ruling, we can tell people whether the ruling was strikethrough because konami said so in the PDF file, or because there is new lore that make this ruling out of date. the reference notes will be useful here. Other reason why I prefer the strikethrough is because some ruling has a part of it wrong, while the rest parts of the ruling is correct. If we only strikethrough the wrong/out of date part, it will be clear to every one what is wrong of the whole ruling, instead of moving it all down to the Out of Date headlin. --[[User:Dlamash|Dlamash]] ([[User talk:Dlamash|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Dlamash|contribs]]) 10:55, June 17, 2014 (UTC)
:::I like the idea of a strikethrough for rulings that are only partly wrong; I am weary of putting rulings in the "Out of Date" section for a minor reason and having people think the entire thing is wrong, when only a small part is. I think the out of date section is better for general use though. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:08, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

Hi , I 'm a big fan of the wiki and ADM of Portuguese wiki. I recently had an idea, which was create a wikia and / or pages on social networks , where all yugioh communities in all countries and languages, with all variants (per example the wiki decks and the wiki yugioh questions) for wikis can communicate more easily with each other , for projects together , to help each other .... etc .

This project would have the name given in the title and would only serve to communicate , not as an encyclopedia of yugioh

Right now, I'm also contact the other wikis.

For more details , leave a message on my wall .

== Card Rulings:Solemn Judgment ==

Hey! I noticed your corrections in [[Card Rulings:Solemn Judgment]]. I fixed the first since that one wasn't written like that in the source, it was my grammar mistake, but I can't understand why you added a {{sic}} too in this line: "Player B {{sic|has now}} the chance to activate an effect to negate the Summon, like "Solemn Judgment"."

Hi! I'm contacting you to talk about the edit I made on "[[Divine Spark Dragon Stardust Sifr]]". You said the effect of "[[Dark Resonator]]" only applies to itself while the effect os Sifr applies to every cards, once each, hence the difference of writing. But how about the text of "[[Number 12: Crimson Shadow Armor Ninja]]", "[[Gagagaguard]]" and "[[Aegis of the Ocean Dragon Lord]]"? Based on those texts, couldnt the (unofficial) translation of that line of the effect be like the one I included?

== Spanish Cyber cards. ==

Hello there! I spotted your commentary on the List of renamed cards about the changes in Spanish "Cíber" cards to "Ciber". As someone who keeps a close eye on changes in Spanish names due to how... wacky... they can be, I can tell you that the "Cíber" spelling didn't affect "Cyber Dragon" cards only. For some reason, spelling just kept on switching between "Cíber" and "Ciber", just like they can't decide whether it's "Super"/"Súper", "Golem/Gólem" or "Samurai"/"Samurái". 

I have yet to check their Card Database articles in order to see whether their names have been changed already, but I can give you a list of the rest of "Cíber" cards:

=="Monster" vs. "monster"==
Hi there. I'm taking care of set lists. The page for Tuner monsters is named "[[Tuner monster]]" the page for Flip monsters is named "[[Flip monster]]", but the page for Effect monsters is named "[[Effect_Monster|Effect '''M'''onster]]". In the lists, I'm using "Monster" (with a capital "M"), even if the monster is more than just an Effect monster. That means, for instance, in the case of Shaddoll Falco, its entry would be: "Flip Tuner Monster". Is this correct or should it be "Flip Tuner monster"? [[User:Becasita|Pendulum]] ([[User talk:Becasita|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Becasita|contribs]]) 14:26, February 3, 2016 (UTC)
:For "Tuner" and [[ability|abilities]], "monster" is not capitalized. For "Pendulum", "Effect", and monster card types (Ritual, Fusion, Synchro, Xyz), "Monster" is capitalized.
:So it should be "Flip Tuner monster" in your example. Also, it should be "Tuner Synchro Monster" (and as such I would suggest "Tuner Pendulum Monster" for those, but I don't have any solid backing for that). To my knowledge those are all the composite ones, so let me know if you find one I missed. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:37, February 3, 2016 (UTC)
::Oh, I guess most things would have "Effect Tuner monster" etc. I don't believe there's any card text formatted that way, but uncapitalized is how I would suggest handling it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:38, February 3, 2016 (UTC)
:::Hum, so there is not problem in having the word "monster" and "Monster" on the same list? I only asked because both "Monster" and "monster" refer to the same thing: Monsters (or monsters), and for a matter of congruence within the same list.
:::And why is it "Tuner Synchro Monster"? For example, "[[Formula Synchron]]" lists [Machine/Synchro/Tuner/Effect], "Synchro" before "Tuner". The same applies to Pendulum Tuners, like "[[Nobledragon Magician]]". So, what's the reasoning I should apply to future cases? [[User:Becasita|Pendulum]] ([[User talk:Becasita|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Becasita|contribs]]) 14:51, February 3, 2016 (UTC)
:::Though they also list "Effect" in the end, and they are called "Effect Tuner", so... It invalidates my argument. [[User:Becasita|Pendulum]] ([[User talk:Becasita|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Becasita|contribs]]) 14:52, February 3, 2016 (UTC)
::::It's "Tuner Synchro Monster" due to the texts of cards like "[[Shooting Quasar Dragon]]". There's no particularly good reason to put "Effect" at the start, that's just how we do it (I guess we assume the "Effect" is the least descriptive part).
::::We don't have any card texts to indicate whether it should be "Flip Tuner monster" or "Tuner Flip monster", but everything other than "Synchro" so far goes before "Tuner" so I think "Flip Tuner monster" works. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:56, February 3, 2016 (UTC)

[https://ygorganization.com/tc-ocg-fl-list/ Here is the link.]  The question is, though, should I make a page for this? --'''[[User:Psychid45|<font color="lime">Yes, it's PSYCHID!</font>]]<sup> [[User talk:Psychid45|<font color="skyblue">He talks!</font>]] [[Special:Contributions/Psychid45|<font color="red">He does stuff!</font>]]</sup>''' 17:42, March 1, 2016 (UTC)

==Card pics==
<nowiki>*</nowiki>uses PokéFlute* Hey Snorlax! I heard you were good at finding non-English card pics. Would you mind providing me some of your sources, since I deal with pics and galleries a lot as well? Could you provide me especially sites to find Italian and non-marked Spanish pics? Thanks. [[User:Becasita|Becasita]] <sup><small>Pendulum</small></sup> ([[User talk:Becasita|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Becasita|contribs]]) 13:47, March 6, 2016 (UTC)
:90% of the time I just Google the set code of the specific card print I'm after and find the best image that way. However, Portuguese and Spanish are special cases. I have a hard enough time finding ''any'' Spanish images for a particular print let alone unwatermarked ones, which is why there are so many uploaded watermarked Spanish images.
:There are two main places to check for Spanish card images: http://www.elrincondelduelista.com/ and the Spanish Wikia. The former appear to be watermarked, but you can get the unwatermarked image just by deleting the "-large_default" part of the URL. For example, to get the unwatermarked version of the image http://www.elrincondelduelista.com/704-large_default/sece-sp003-artistamigo-amigoburro.jpg just change it to http://www.elrincondelduelista.com/704/sece-sp003-artistamigo-amigoburro.jpg . You can do the same trick for Portuguese card images on http://www.dmgcardshop.com/ (although the text you have to remove might differ). Note that that Spanish site only has a few specific recent sets, so if you're looking for older images you probably want the Spanish Wikia; most of the images there are uploaded by [[User talk:AzureKesil|AzureKesil]] (who is active here too), so if you're still stuck your best bet is to ask them. (A lot of the time I just don't find any though.)
:Italian is much easier. I usually find good quality fairly easily from a Google search. Amazon.it usually has fairly good quality images. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 10:57, March 7, 2016 (UTC)

==Forbidden and Limited Lists==
Yeah, I understand your concerns with the message you left on my talk page. The reason I did it in multiple edits was because my internet is currently rather spotty, and does die out at random times. Since the differences table is quite big (given how many changes were made to the new banlist), I made it in installments, so that in the event my internet died on me, not all my work would be lost, and I can get back on the page and resume more or less where I left off once the internet returned. It's just something I did to make my own life easier, and given that I did everything on that differences table in one sitting, I don't think it's really an issue that people will get incomplete information from an incomplete table (since I finished the table soon after beginning it). As for a Sandbox, I never had a need to use one, I don't have any user subpages, and I would rather not make any if I can't see myself using them in the very long run, so I just don't want to make something that'll turn out to be clutter. I hope that answers your questions and concerns. ([[User:Lucafriz|Lucafriz]] ([[User talk:Lucafriz|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lucafriz|contribs]]) 01:27, March 17, 2016 (UTC))
:I don't know why constant saving would be necessary with a spotty internet connection; you don't need a constant internet connection while editing, only when opening the page and when submitting it. On any good browser, you won't lose the contents of your edit if you submit but your computer cannot connect to the internet.
:It's fine if you don't normally have a use for a Sandbox, but you just described a situation where one would be very helpful. You can just have it deleted when you're done with it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:45, March 17, 2016 (UTC)

==Galleries==
Hey Snorlax. Could I ask you for a favour? If you have not engaged in any project and have the time/opportunity, could you give a look to the galleries of the cards released on the [[HERO Strike Structure Deck|HERO Strike]] and [[Synchron Extreme Structure Deck|Synchron Extreme]] Structure Decks, please? Some of the cards have very poor galleries, like [[Card Gallery:R - Righteous Justice]] or [[Card Gallery:A Hero Lives]], for instance. Sorry if it seems I'm throwing work at you, but I'm a bit sick of doing galleries and I don't like to ignore wrong stuff when I see it, and since you have that script, hence why I'm addressing to you. But, please, don't see it like I'm just throwing work at you that I don't want to do. Thanks.

==Card pic upload==
There's something I want to share with you, since you upload lots of pics:
<pre>
{{subst::User:Becasita/SubPages/Templates/CardImage
| name = 
| post = 
| alt  = 
}}
</pre>
By filling the <code>name</code> parameter with card name and copying that to the file description, that template will get the parameters of the {{t|OCG-TCG card image}} template filled automatically. I think this might be especially useful for you, since you usually deal with individual card galleries and, as you can see, the code is the same for different card pics of the same card. Except some nuances, that's why the <code>post</code> and the <code>alt</code> parameters exist.<br />
You can check more info on it at [[User:Becasita/SubPages/Templates/CardImage|this page]]. Hope it's helpful.<br />
If you find any problem with it, please alert me. [[User:Becasita|Becasita]] <sup><small>Pendulum</small></sup> ([[User talk:Becasita|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Becasita|contribs]]) 19:29, April 18, 2016 (UTC)
:I tend to just use 
<pre><nowiki>{{OCG-TCG card image
| name    = CARDNAME
| set     = {{ subst:#explode: {{ subst:#explode: {{subst:PAGENAME}} | . }} | - | 1 }}
| region  = {{ subst:#explode: {{ subst:#explode: {{subst:PAGENAME}} | . }} | - | 2 }}

| edition = {{ subst:#explode: {{ subst:#explode: {{subst:PAGENAME}} | . }} | - | 4 }}

from a text file I have saved to my computer if I'm doing that kind of thing. More frequently I just do it manually though. "alt" and "release" are rare enough that doing those manually is not a significant burden. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:59, April 19, 2016 (UTC)

<div style="margin-left: 3.2em;">
Just to tell you that I added a new parameter. Might be helpful for you since you also deal with pics named following the old Image policy.
<pre>
{{subst::User:Becasita/SubPages/Templates/CardImage
| name = 
| fix  = 
| post = 
| alt  = 
}}
</pre>
In that case, besides the <code>name</code> parameter, you just need to fill the <code>fix</code> parameter (with <code>1</code>, for instance) and it will get everything into place.<br />
I was also using something similar to what you're using, but I needed something more automatic, you know? But I re-upload stuff like proxies and so.

::Ah, I see, I see. But isn't it inconvenient that one person is checking the "''(original)''" version of one of the cards and then can't get back to them easily, after going into "Trivia", for instance?

==Re: Time Stream==
From what I understand, it trying to stated the use of your own monster and the monster from the opponent's Graveyard after using "[[Fossil Fusion (anime)|Fossil Fusion]]". The first part is tricky since there is no card with that kind of text. The reason I don't go with same Type is that the Fusion Monster require [[Warrior]] and a [[Rock]] Type monster for its Material. From the text (相手墓地のモンスターの種族), monster Type of the opponent's Graveyard, (対象種族) target Type which means your own monster Type, and finally, (そのモンスターが融合対象) fusion target of that monster meaning Fusion Monster own Material. To makes thing easy, how about this "Target 1 "Cenozoic" or "Mesozoic" Fusion Monster you control, that used a different monster Type for its fusion". This way, it cut out a literally translation. Though I did kind of ran into issues with the explanation from using "Mesozoic" into "Paleozoic", since "Mesozoic" isn't actually fused by using your own monster Type and the monster Type from the opponent's Graveyard.

Hi Snorlax! Hum, sorry to bother you with this again, but could you set another bot run to change <code>Magician's Navigate</code> to <code>Magician Navigation</code>, please? You only need to go through the "Card Tips" namespace, the rest is cleared. I'd do it but it's about 135 pages and... Well, you know, I have other stuff I'd like to do around.<br />
Another thing is, since I'm writing you, I'll take this opportunity to poke you regarding [[User talk:SnorlaxMonster#Galleries|your gallery script]].

==Dark Sanctuary==
Regarding [{{fullurl:Dark Sanctuary|diff=3382982&oldid=3382978}} this edit] of yours: The text is worded like "''If you place a {{'}}Spirit Message{{'}} card by the effect of {{'}}Destiny Board{{'}}, you can Special Summon that card as a Normal Monster''". Doesn't that mean that you can only Special Summon it if it was placed on the field? Like, place it on the field; then Special Summon it.<br />
To be like you're saying, shouldn't it be worded like "''If you '''would''' place a {{'}}Spirit Message{{'}} card by the effect of {{'}}Destiny Board{{'}}, you can Special Summon that card as a Normal Monster '''instead'''''" (the "''instead''" is not really necessary for what I want to demonstrate here).<br />

Hey Snorlax,

My apologies for [http://yugioh.wikia.com/index.php?title=Jam_Defender_%28anime%29&diff=3416953&oldid=3416860 removing this card's Japanese lore]; however, since its lore doesn't reflect what the card does in the anime, is it necessary to add it to the page? I know that we note what is printed on the card; however, there are inconsistencies between various anime card pages that have different effects than what is printed on the card. The page of the earlier anime version of "[[Toon World (anime)|Toon World]]" is an example. Even though [[Card Errata:Toon World#Japanese|its lore is identical]] to its ''OCG'' lore prior to its errata, we didn't include it on that page. The reconstructed lore parameter is present on that page as well. Should we also modify that page?

== how to add note to lore ==

Hi, so you added the note to my perfectly ultimate great moth edit. Firstly, I was wondering how you know that that's what the lore said, as unless you read Japanese I don't know how you could know. Secondly, how do you add notes like that? If you could show me on Skype real quick that would be great - 'jonneyboy99' is my user. Or you could do it yourself for the 'Cyber Harpie Lady' anime page, to add the note that they were actually note classified as 'harpie lady' as Mai had more than 3 of these + regular harpie lady in her deck.

Thanks,

==Requires specific Synchro Materials for its Synchro Summon==

Admittedly, I can't recall what the specific proportion of Synchro Monsters with specific material requirements is, compared to those who don't. Well, if you feel strongly about it, I can change the property entry to encompass generic Synchro Monsters rather than those with specific Material requirements.

== Manga card types ==

I don't think that "[[Metalmorph (manga)|Metalmorph]]" and "[[Magical Arm Shield (manga)|Magical Arm Shield]]" are Equip-property Trap-type Cards. We can see from "[[Cyber Bondage (manga)|Cyber Bondage]]", "[[Dragon Nails (manga)|Dragon Nails]]" and "[[Sword of Dogra (manga)|Sword of Dogra]]" that "Equip" was a card type of its own. At the time lots of cards had multiple types, such as the Trap Monsters and Spell Trap Cards.

"Field", I'm a little less sure about, but it might also be a card type. Aside from "Permanent" (Continuous), properties don't seem to have been a thing at this point. If "Field" was intended to be a property, it would make more sense that they be "Field Trap (Monster)" and "Field Virus" than "Trap Field (Monster)" and "Virus Field". Although, none of [http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Ask?q=%5B%5BAppears+in::Yu-Gi-Oh!+(manga)%7C%7CYu-Gi-Oh!+R%5D%5D%3Cq%3E%5B%5BProperty::~*Field*%5D%5D+OR+%5B%5BCard+type::~*Field*%5D%5D%3C%2Fq%3E the manga Field Cards of that era] were just "Field". -- [[User:Deltaneos|Deltaneos]] ([[User talk:Deltaneos|talk]]) 23:45, November 26, 2016 (UTC)
:Almost all of the [http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Ask?q=%5B%5BAppears+in::Yu-Gi-Oh!+(manga)%7C%7CYu-Gi-Oh!+R%5D%5D%3Cq%3E%5B%5BProperty::~*Equip*%5D%5D+OR+%5B%5BCard+type::~*Equip*%5D%5D%3C%2Fq%3E Equip Cards of that era] also seem to be formatted as "Spell Equip Card" or "Trap Equip Card" in Japanese (although there are some cards like "[[Synchronic Ability]]" that put them in the expected order). If you want to consider Equip Card to be a primary card type like Spell or Trap, I think that's reasonable, but I would ask that you apply it to all original manga and R cards. Worth noting that "[[Double Evolution]]" is an R card that specifically supports Equip Spells.
:For "Field", most of them seem to say "Field Spell" or "Field Spell Card" in Japanese rather than "Spell Field" like is done with Equip Cards. "[[Sand Fortress]]" is specifically a "Trap/Field Spell", which convinces me "Field" is intended to be a property of Spell Cards. "[[Stronghold the Moving Fortress (manga)|Stronghold the Moving Fortress]]" being a "Trap/Field Monster" is just confusing though.
:Counter Trap Cards also seem to be a property in the early manga, with "[[Curse Transfer (manga)|Curse Transfer]]" and "[[Nightmare Chains (manga)|Nightmare Chains]]" (although "Nightmare Chains" is specifically a "Trap Counter Trap Card"). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 05:46, November 27, 2016 (UTC)

== Swap Frog's Outdated Rulings ==

Swap Frog's TCG errata has changed Swap Frog to work the same in both the OCG and TCG.

You cannot activate an effect if it will do nothing. If you have already activated Swap Frog's effect once, you have already gained its effect to perform an additional Normal Summon. Since activating it again will do nothing, you are not allowed to activate Swap Frog's effect again.

The ruling that implies you can activate Swap's Frog's effect multiple times per turn is already outdated. Please undo your revert. <span style="background-color:LightCyan; border:2px ridge blue; -moz-border-radius:1em;">&nbsp;[[User:Hide Head Turtle|<span style="color:black;">'''HHT'''</span>]] &nbsp;</span> 17:25, April 4, 2017 (UTC)

:::"''You cannot activate an effect if it will do nothing.''"
:::This is an oversimplification. You can't activate "Dark Hole" if there are no monsters on the field, but you can activate it if the only monster on the field is "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes" (despite the fact that no monsters would be destroyed in either case).
:::Having said that, there are ''OCG'' rulings that state that you cannot activate the effect of "Swap Frog" if you have already gained an effect like that of "Swap Frog" or "Atlantean Heavy Infantry", so I think it would be reasonable to assume that's also the case for the ''TCG'' with this new wording (although there is a lack of solid evidence that failing to gain an effect counts as "doing nothing" in the ''TCG''). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:25, April 5, 2017 (UTC)

::::The thing about the "Dark Hole & Unaffected/Cannot be destroyed by card effects" situation is that Dark Hole is still trying to destroy that monster, so it is still "doing something". However, you cannot activate Dark Hole if there are no monsters on the field, because there is nothing for Dark Hole to even "try to destroy". <span style="background-color:LightCyan; border:2px ridge blue; -moz-border-radius:1em;">&nbsp;[[User:Hide Head Turtle|<span style="color:black;">'''HHT'''</span>]] &nbsp;</span> 09:29, April 5, 2017 (UTC)

== Mirror Force Dragon's Quick/Trigger Effect ==

This is debatable, but I propose we list it as a Quick Effect. If it were a Trigger Effect, then the second part of its effect would always miss the timing, making it unusable in every possible scenario. Some ruling experts agree that it's a Quick Effect in the TCG too because of this redundancy.

:Can you bring this up on Mirror Force Dragon's talk page? I'd like to invite some other people to weigh in. I'm still leaning towards listing it as a Trigger Effect (since it was just reprinted, and now all Quick Effects specifically say "Quick Effect", but it doesn't). However, you are right that we should be able to infer from the fact that it needs to chain to an effect activation that it should be a Quick Effect (I made a similar point regarding the "{[Reactor]]" monsters and their illogical UDE rulings that their effects are Trigger Effects). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 12:01, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

== Anime Card Images ==

Why exactly is the non-card image preferred to be the main image? The artwork is the closest we have to how the actual card looks. This is the first time I'm hearing about this, too; I don't think the image policy mentions anything about this. Lots of cards with an official artwork follow this pattern, as well. [[User:MadRest|MadRest]] ([[User talk:MadRest|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/MadRest|contribs]]) 01:17, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
:Compare the list of anime cards that use artwork as their main image when they also have a non-card image

:As you can see, the policy is to prefer non-card images over artwork (even though it's not written down). Most of the examples on the first list are changes you made recently.
:The reason this would be preferred is that the artwork usually never actually shows up in the anime unless the card does too, so the non-card image is a better representation of the card's anime appearance. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 06:14, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

::I don't think that's "policy." The users were just adding the official artworks separately since yugioh.com came out really late, and the main image's parameter was already filled; I guess they weren't bothered to replace it and copy it into a new parameter.

== Copies name / Changes name ==

Hi. The difference between those categories is:
* Changes own name (field/GY/hand) = the card changes its own name to the one '''printed''' on its text (like "[[Harpie Queen]]").
* Copies name = the card changes its own name, or the name of another card, to the one of a card that the player targets ("[[Neo-Spacian Dark Panther]]"), declares a name ("[[Ancient Gear Gadget]]"), etc, as long they '''don't mention any card name in their text'''.
--[[User:Missign0|Missign0]] ([[User talk:Missign0|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missign0|contribs]]) 06:00, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
:Ah, I see what you were doing. I'm not sure why you thought that's what the categories meant, but that's incorrect.
* Copies name = Changes a card's name to match the name of another card
* Changes own name = Changes the name of the card itself
* Changes card names = Changes the name of another card
* Treated as alternate name = Allows a card's name to be treated as a different name for some game mechanic or effect
:"Copies name" should never be used on its own, because what is done with the name can vary (is it changing its own name, another card's, or just treating a card's name as a different name under some circumstances). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 06:05, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
