  • I made similar pages that I refer to, but I thought it'd be good to share some of it.

Making Your Userpage Look Nice[edit]

Introduction[edit]

  • To prevent annoying other members (well, the ones why use the 'Recent Changes' page a lot), you should use the 'Preview' Button when testing out what a minor change does, and before saving your page.
This button can be found next to the 'Publish' button, and surprisingly, quite a lot of people don't see it and do like 20 edits in a row, cluttering/shortening the recent changes list.
  • That being said, almost everything you need to know for doing this can be found Here.

Other Tips[edit]

  • Stuff that weren't in the above link will be added here.

Decklists[edit]

  • A good template to use can be found here.
The page also explains how to use it.

Simple Page Border[edit]

  • To add a simple page border, add this to the top of the page:

<div style="border-width: 5px; border-style: dotted; border-color: black;">

  • This is editable of course. Here's what you can edit:

  • The border-width and border-color are straight forward.
The bigger the border-width, the thicker the border.
Regular border-colors can be found here.


Other Things You Can Add[edit]

  • Other things you can add can be found in the templates section on this wiki.

Semantic Search Guide[edit]

Semantic Search Basics[edit]

  • Here is a list of sample values which can be used in this wiki's Semantic Search page.
  • Just copy the "Sample Value(s)" that you want into the box on the page.
  • You can use multiples are once. This means "and".
Reference for using the Semantic Search
Page: Special:Ask
Query Sample Value(s) Description (Only for the "first of it's kind" or "special cases")
Level

[[Level::1]]
[[Level::4]]
[[Level::8]]
[[Level::10]]
[[Level::12]]

[[Level::!8]]
[[Level::!12]]
Adding "!" in front of the condition, means "exclude".
ATK

[[ATK::3000]]
[[ATK::4000]]

[[ATK::>3000]] Adding ">" in front of the condition, means "greater than or equal to". Generally, this is the one we use (but for the sake of completeness, adding ">>" means "greater than but not equal to".
[[ATK::<3000]] Adding "<" in front of the condition, means "less than or equal to".
[[ATK::!4000]]
[[ATK string::?]] This special one is used to find monsters with "?" ATK.
DEF

[[DEF::3000]]
[[DEF::4000]]

[[DEF::>3000]] Adding ">" in front of the condition, means "greater than or equal to".
[[DEF::<3000]] Adding "<" in front of the condition, means "less than or equal to".

Anti-support [[Anti-support::Synchro Monster]]
English name [[English name::Dark Magician]]

[[English name::!Stardust Dragon]]
[[English name::!Anteatereatingant]]

Remember that adding "!" in front , means "exclude".
It's useful if you want to exclude a certain monster because it doesn't work with something.
Note that adding the commands (symbols) before the conditions may not work for all Properties.

Also, you can see the Properties page for more Queries and Values if necessary.

Semantic Search Tables[edit]

  • Another use for those Values is to use them is a Search Box
  • Here's an example. This is the simpler version that supposed to be using on the "Card Tips" pages.
  • Feel free to use this as a template for the tables for the "Card Tips" pages.
  • For Example. Adding the following to a page...

{{Card query|[[Type::Insect]] [[Level::5]] [[English name::!Anteatereatingant]]|medium=official}}

  • ... produces the following:
NameJapanese namePrimary typeSecondary typeAttributeATKDEF
Battlewasp - Azusa the Ghost BowB・Fビー・フォースれいきゅうのアズサEffect Monster

Primitive Butterflyプリミティブ・バタフライEffect MonsterWIND1200900
Ultimate Insect LV5アルティメット・インセクト LVレベルEffect MonsterWIND2300900
  • Here's another Example:
  • This one is more complicated, and it isn't needed for regular lists.
  • Adding the following to a page...

{{Navbox
|title=List for [[Evil Hero Dark Gaia OTK]]
|list1={{Card query|[[Type::Fiend||Rock]] [[Primary type::!Fusion Monster]] [[Primary type::!Synchro Monster]]
|medium=official |sort=ATK |order=desc}}
}}

  • ... produces the following:
  • The "Navbox" is just to make it have a "Show/Hide" effect. These are generally NOT used on Tips pages.
  • The "|medium=official" makes it only show OCG/TCG cards.
  • The "|sort=ATK |order=desc" does what they say they do, so I doubt I need to explain that.


  • Other comments on the Semantic Search Tables:
It is possible to 'overload' these tables by adding too many Queries, so try to refrain from doing that.
  • I'll be listing a few pages with tables that I made here. Just for reference.
Fusion Monsters
Card Tips:Decoy Dragon
Evil Hero Dark Gaia OTK

Other[edit]

  • Many people forget that you can find certain words on the current page by pressing "Ctrl+F".
    • It's quite useful when you want to find something in a wall of text; like on Rulings pages.
