I caught 2 errors. Torrential Tribute is Limited in the current (September 2006) list (it was shown as Forbidden), and Confiscation was Forbidden in the April 2005 list (it was listed as Limited). I remember this because Confiscation was banned when they brought back Delinquent Duo. --Yami Aguilar 05:19, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Tell TwoTailedFox to fix it. AnnaV 22:28, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I'm new here. I already made the change, I didn't know about the "summary" option so I was writing all my changes in "discussion."--Yami Aguilar 16:23, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

September 2007 has be updated.

  • Chaos cards weren't available in 2003 since the boosters were released in 2004, thus the first case of both envoy should be Black, not green!

--KevinSephiroth 13:55, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

  • unlimited cards should be noted as bgcolor="#00FF00" not #00FF33 like in the legend at the beginning of the article. This results in differents green in the aticle.. Why did you reverted my work without verifying that ??? --KevinSephiroth 13:59, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Don't worry, your editions are back. Thanks for your help. --Dragon Slayer 04:06, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Other Lists

Why aren't May '02 and May '08 on this chart?

They have articles too, so it shouldn't be too difficult to add them.--12.52.46.34 15:35, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Is it because we don't have the OCG lists?

If so, it's a poor reason. We have the TCG lists, and we should include all of the information that we have in this chart, shouldn't we?

I'd fix it myself, but this is my first Wikia post, so I don't know how.

Can we tell TwoTailedFox or Deltaneos to add these?--12.52.46.34 15:42, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

I agree with you. I'll tell Two Tailed Fox to do something about this. --71.129.234.19 18:23, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

I think the reason why there isn't a May 2002 because there wasn't a ban list only limited and semi-limited list and as for the May 2008 because there three addition to the ban list for May which is Dimension Fusion (Forbidden) and Return from the different Dimension (Limited). --74.37.66.226 04:43, September 19, 2009 (UTC)

I'm actually going to side with the two random IP people. We should use the May lists. --GoldenSandslash15 21:01, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Accurate

How accurate is this Forbidden/Limited chart?

Template

Just a scratchpad for working on a per-card template for this page; you can ignore this (though if anyone knows of sources for the old OCG banlists, please post them either here or on my talk page... I'm also interested in knowing if there's only ever been one banlist each for the OCG and TCG, or if there were more (e.g. Europe probably had its own banlist prior to Invasion of Chaos[1])).

Template input
{{Template name|Card name|May 2002 OCG=Unlimited|May 2002 TCG=Did not exist|Sept 2004 OCG=Forbidden|Sept 2004 TCG=Limited|Apr 2005=Forbidden|Sept 2005=Illegal|Mar 2008 OCG=Semi-limited|Mar 2008 TCG=Limited}}
  • I'm not seeing any way currently to cleanly allow the template input to only specify when a card's status changes, meaning currently it looks like the status will have to be specified for *every* banlist. If there is a way, though, I'm seriously thinking about rowspans for unchanged values where appropriate.
  • I'm not sure yet how best to allow notes and the like to be added for a given banlist. Straight in the associated parameter (meaning lots of StringFunctions)? Separate parameter for each banlist (meaning twice the parameters)? Hmm... probably dedicated note parameters with some means of specifying which banlist a given note corresponds to.

I kinda like each box separate instead of 1 huge block with the colspans. Makes counting how long it was limited for easier, among a few other things imo. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 07:36, September 15, 2011 (UTC)
Now that you mention it, you're right. I wasn't thinking of just how long the table is, meaning that for rowspans to really work, we'd either have to repeat the header every so many rows, or the template would have to have some way of specifying what banlist(s) a given cell covers (this is really something that needs to be done anyways; it's simple enough to follow a column down/up from a header, but it gets to be a pain after a while) - perhaps more tooltip abuse would do the trick? ディノ千?!? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 08:02, September 15, 2011 (UTC)
Are floating headers possible on wikia? -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 14:19, September 15, 2011 (UTC)
You mean like have the header rows "detach" from the table and stay at the top of the page or something as it's scrolled down? Yes, since that's a matter of JavaScript, though I don't know how to program anything like it myself (and I also can't say how much the table's source would have to be finagled to get it to work as well). ディノ千?!? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 17:02, September 15, 2011 (UTC)
The most simple way is to use a div, as it doesn't require any fancy addons. But the only way to get it to follow only while inside the table (as a floating header) is to use Javascript. Also, div doesn't work very well when there's 2 skins with different widths.
