Latest revision as of 05:26, 13 April 2024

We use a bunch of 1, 2, and 3-character abbreviations for various things, some of which are official and some not so much; they've never been reviewed to try to minimize collisions AFAIK. Bold abbreviations are official, italic are semi-official, and plain are unofficial/specific to the wiki. If an abbreviation has multiple uses of the same type/in the same section, which are split in some way between official, semi-official, and unofficial, each "level" is listed separately. Abbreviations followed by ! indicate conflicts.

Regions[edit]

  • EN - English
  • E/EU - European English
  • A/AU/OC - Australian/Oceanic English
  • F/FR - French
  • C/FC - French-Canadian
  • G/DE - German
  • I/IT - Italian
  • P/PT - Portuguese
  • S/SP! - Spanish
  • JP - Japanese
  • JA - Japanese-Asian

  • TC! - Traditional Chinese
  • SC! - Simplified Chinese

Sets[edit]

OCG/TCG[edit]

Most 2-character set prefixes are from Series 2 sets; only one or two are from sets released afterwards. The wiki has an in-house set of often ad-hoc abbreviations used for Series 1 sets (which have no official standardized set prefixes, though some abbreviations/prefixes were published in the first two The Valuable Book volumes). Unless otherwise noted, all sets listed here are Japanese.

Notes[edit]

  1. a b c d e f g h i j Backconstructed from later official set prefixes.

Dungeon Dice Monsters[edit]

Yu-Gi-Oh! Dungeon Dice Monsters cards had card numbers (other than the original Japanese Starter Box), all of which used two-character set prefixes; some of these conflicted with set prefixes used in the OCG later.

Editions[edit]

  • 1E - 1st Edition
  • UE - Unlimited Edition
  • LE - Limited Edition

Other[edit]

It isn't normally as important to avoid collisions with these abbreviations, but we should still be mindful of them and avoid them where it can be reasonably managed.
