Code review
Now that I've finally finished my initial cleanup of the main table's code on Template:CardTable2/sandbox, I'd appreciate another pair of eyes (or more, if you know of any other MediaWiki code jockeys who may be interested) looking over the code to hopefully spot any bugs or errors I may have overlooked, as well as to provide suggestions for further improvements - I already have some ideas myself, but I'm only one person, and other perspectives would be quite welcome. Thanks in advance! =) 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 21:51, November 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'll have a look at finding possible bugs soon. Is this going to rely on the same input as the current CardTable2? Or would it be okay if we did stuff like change  to something like   or how the sets should be entered so we can apply SMW to them? Or is that a later step? -- Deltaneos (talk) 01:12, November 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * I haven't actually changed any parameters yet, though in some cases I have changed how they behave somewhat (hopefully nothing causing breakage though). I'm thinking that would be a later step; first I would like to finish up the initial cleanup (there are a few more things I'd like to do with the main table code, and I've really just glazed over the statuses table and SMW block), have it spot-tested, and get it deployed in place of the current code to check for any more bugs. After that I'll be working on splitting the template into a frontend wrapper and a /core (which will probably itself eventually become a wrapper for per-game subtemplates, once I see how the code falls from the /core separation), which will enable us to make much more drastic changes to the parameter landscape with much less overall work on the template than it would take with a single unified template design (i.e. what we have now). This will be accompanied by lots of exploring how, where, and when current parameters are used to see how the code can be further refined.
 * As for the sets, I had been intending for Card table set to take the role of SMW handling; it feels cleaner to me to have the template called directly rather than having CardTable2 call it for the editor, but there are some benefits to that approach as well (not least of which, Card table set could default to not outputting SMW info unless supplied with an extra parameter, which CardTable2 could provide). I really still don't understand how SMW works yet, though, so there could be more benefits I'm just not seeing. =)
 * And yeah, I realize all this sounds like a lot of work (it is, or at least I'm really good at saying way more than necessary), but the /core separation should be fairly straightforward, and once it's done, everything else can be done gradually. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 04:01, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

 * Nothing too major, except where inherited from the original CardTable2.
 * Images are being aligned to the centre of the column and the titles on each sets collapsible are being aligned to the centre of their row. I'm not sure if they were deliberate or not, but I think it looks better when all the flags are lined up.
 * The format status: "OCG Status", "TCG Advanced Format Status" and "TCG Traditional Format Status" aren't supposed to be given values when not applicable. The current CardTable2, I think, is kinda sloppy about that though, so it easy to get them mixed-up. If I recall correctly, in CardTable2, there's a parser that sets them to "Not Present" if they don't exist in the OCG or TCG, but that's contained within another parser that causes that property to not be added at all when not applicable. That's a result of it being done one way, then changed without entirely removing the old way.
 * A lot of the stuff in the black box under the table is supposed to disappear when not applicable. Same as above though, the current CardTable2 just handles it very messily.
 * The width being forced to 400, unless a is specified, is temporary, I take it?
 * Bug with the original table... WC10 isn't appearing in the "Medium" property.
 * Also a bug with the original table, but needs fixing for the new one too. For Property:S/T Class, we need to change it to S/T Class:: Spell Cards and S/T Class:: Trap Cards rather than S/T Class::, since it uses Type:Page (I hate that type being used just for the sake of adding a link) and the Normal and Continuous titles aren't being used for the Spell or Trap Cards specifically. We may need to fix a few pages like this; List of Continuous Spell Cards, but that shouldn't be too difficult.
 * P.S. I had forgotten I had this enabled, but that showed me some more reason not to use max-height/width. It can throw off proportions for pages that exceed one of the limits, but isn't a regular card. e.g. Joey (MW). -- Deltaneos (talk) 00:35, November 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * Looks mostly like ambiguities in the original code I didn't know how to handle (and I've moved most of the styles to external CSS, to make the ultimate addition to MediaWiki:Common.css that much easier; to preview the new styles, add  to your monobook.js or common.js page).
 * In the current table, the card image gets aligned via . I've been trying to figure out how to get the image centered using only CSS, but I haven't been able to get it yet. As for the flags, that's a side effect of using the same template for all the collapsible boxes now. I personally like all the headers being centered, since that makes the whole table look more unified IMO; I could easily add a left-aligned parameter for flagicons though.
 * Yes, the original code in CardTable2 was quite ambiguous about what the default behavior should be. Am I understanding you correctly, that *all* of the statuses information should default to not being shown at all?
 * This is basically the same as the last point. One thing that's always bothered me about the statuses table, though, is that it doesn't disappear when it's empty - the new version will (visually, at least; it would take another layer of template abstraction to cleanly prevent any HTML from being output, either).
 * Yes, until we decide for sure on what the width should be (I believe current consensus is favoring 300px).
 * Is this bug still present in the new table? The SMW code under the table is still a massive mess, even with what cleanup I've done on it, and there're almost certainly gaps that need to be filled.
 * Sounds easy enough.
 * If only one of max-width/height is set, will the other scale appropriately?
 * Now a couple of CSS issues I haven't been able to resolve:
 * No matter what I've tried, I haven't been able to get the card image cell's borders to "stick" to the image in all cases. I could probably hack it by adding  to one of the rows, but there's no telling how screwed up that'd look in some browsers.
 * The styles I've written for cardtable are interfering with the navbox styles for the collapsible info. I've tried "resetting" the navbox styles from within the cardtable CSS, but haven't managed to get anywhere significant.
 * After I've resolved these issues and done a bit more work on the template (and the styles have been tested across more browsers and in the Wikia skin, and moved to Common.css), I'm planning on starting a discussion in the forum and posting a sitenotice to get more people to test the box prior to deployment. Any further comments or help with the issues I'm trying to fix? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 01:02, November 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * It was more that the image is in the vertical centre than the horizontal centre. Just set valign to "top", I guess. The current template is messy about the alignment of the collapsibles' titles; lores are centred, while everything else is to the left. The flags (and video game icons), should at least be aligned, In my opinion. The text part is fine centred or left aligned, as long as it's consistent.
 * Cards that appear in neither the OCG nor the TCG, shouldn't have the status section.
 * Meh, it's not very important. I don't particularly like that box. I don't think it's going to look to pretty regardless of whether some cells are left empty or not. If you plans to make it disappear when empty, that's great.
 * Okay.
 * No, it's corrected in the new table.
 * Okay.
 * No, it will only scale one. An 800x600 image facing a max-width of 300 will turn into a 300x600 image.
 * Really? One of the things that really stuck out for me was that the borders did stick to the image. Maybe browser differences? I'm using Chrome at the moment. I agree it does look better with the borders sticking to the image.
 * Oh, I totally didn't see you already had the css written. I was only checking for problems with the template itself. I'll take a look tomorrow. I have to go soon.
 * Have you heard of browsershots.org? It might be helpful for seeing stuff in other browsers. Although you'll need a saved page using the template and the CSS applied sitewide. Sitenotice is dead in the new skin, so don't forget to update MediaWiki:Community-corner too when you get that far. Other than that, I can't think of anything more moment, but I'll see if there's anything else after I check test it with the CSS. -- Deltaneos (talk) 02:00, November 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've made some updates per the discussion here. In the case of S/T Class, I just changed it to, so further tweaking may be needed there.
 * I also use Chrome (I've been using the dev channel for some time now), so some of the styling issues must be related to the specific CSS I have set up. I've heard of BrowserShots; I'll be sure to use that once the CSS has been set up. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 03:51, November 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've imported the CSS. Curiously, why is to be imported into a JS page, when it's CSS?
 * So yeah, I see you already have the image valigned to the top and now the side borders aren't sticking to it. Is the problem with the navbox styles that there is an extra border around the heading and content and that the heading is thicker? -- Deltaneos (talk) 14:47, November 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * Because Im more comfortable with  than I am with  . ;)
 * Yep (though, after looking at it for a while, I think the thicker header looks nicer). Any ideas? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 21:33, November 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * Actually, I don't think the borders sticking and not sticking to the image is because of a difference in CSS. At least not directly. When I didn't have the CSS applied, I didn't have the forced 98% width, so the table was only minimally wide, which is why it didn't have the extra space next to the image. -- Deltaneos (talk) 23:24, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Video game parameters
I just (mostly) finished a massive space-delimited table at the top of the code listing every single video game-related parameter I could find after a cursory amount of searching through the code (this also showed me a handful of bugs that are now fixed ^_^ ); are these all the video gmes CardTable2 needs to worry about right now, or are there more? Are there any parameter gaps that need to be filled (I already know there are several output/SMW gaps to be filled)?

I am probably going to do much the same thing for languages next; any comments on that one before I start, or suggestions on any other stuff to document in a like manner? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 20:23, November 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * I added some more after browsing the list of video games. I didn't know if I should included "abilitydesc" and "jpabilitydesc" or not. They are kinda generic, but still only apply to monsters from the video game Yu-Gi-Oh! Monster Capsule Breed & Battle (MCBB). e.g. "Hapippy".
 * I take it you've already done a text search for each of the abbreviations for the video games you've added? So I don't need to check if any of them are missing, unless I think there're any parameter names that don't use the abbreviation?
 * I suppose we could have something to list the parameters for all the non-standard games, Bandai, Dungeon Dice Monsters, Monster World, Capsule Monster Chess etc. A couple of the parameters used for them are obsolete and can be removed from the template once they've been removed from articles. "dmlevel", "ddmlevel", "ddmatk", ddmdef", "banlevel", "manlevel" and "anilevel" are all no longer necessary. I've started removing them. We can also get rid of the need for "altlevel", "altatk" and "altdef", as you suggested for non-numeric width values earlier, using #iferror. -- Deltaneos (talk) 22:37, November 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * If they apply to only a single game, I see no reason not to add them. I'm going to be using this info to look for bugs and gaps, and ultimately we'll be writing documentation based on it (one thing I've *never* liked about CardTable2 is how woefully under-documented it is), so the more we do now, the easier our future work will be.
 * What was the original purpose for altlevel, altatk, and altdef?
 * Are these the only parameters which are deprecated at this time? Are there any parameters which used to be used, but were deprecated in the past? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 23:38, November 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'll see if I can organise the documentation better.
 * Property:ATK, Property:DEF and Property:Level use numeric values. Anything else gives an error message. The "alt" stuff is for the values ? (printed on some cards whose effect determines their ATK), ??? (used if we don't know the value), ???? ("The Winged Dragon of Ra"), X000 ("Slifer the Sky Dragon") and ∞ ("Divine Serpent").
 * (with a lowercase "c") is also deprecated. It doesn't need to be removed from the few, if any, articles using it before removing it from the template, nor should we need to rewrite any alternative code before removing it from the template. It used to be used to determine if a card was a Capsule Monster, a DDM, anime only, video game only, anime and video game only, video game DDM only etc. It was possible to get that info using other existing parameters. -- Deltaneos (talk) 00:14, November 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Currently, then, altatk et al. add pages to Property:?ATK, Property:?DEF, and Property:?Level, right (that's what it looks like from the code, at least)? So we should be able to do e.g., right?
 * Could you explain exactly what different cases CardTable2 needs to worry about, and exactly what parameters/values to look for to determine which cases a given page fits, on Template talk:CardTable2? When I do the /core separation, I'm going to do all this checking a single time in the outer wrapper and just pass the results into /core (this may be across several parameters, depending on the granularity required), so the more accurate and comprehensive my knowledge of the check is, the better. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 01:32, November 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that should do.
 * I just started on reorganising CardTable2's documentation. See Template:CardTable2/doc/Bandai and Template:CardTable2/doc/Capsule Monster Chess for examples. They also cover what's necessary to detect what type of card something is and example pages.
 * I also found a bug while doing the Bandai one.  is used to add an SMW property that identifies something as a Monster Card. But Bandai monsters don't have Attributes, so they're not being picked-up. I think we should change it to   (Maybe throw in the DEF parameters too to be safe.) -- Deltaneos (talk) 01:45, November 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'll have a look in a minute, sounds promising.
 * That sounds good. Hearing that, I'm definitely going to be using more than one parameter for identifying a card's categories: so far, I'm thinking one for the overall card game (OCG-TCG/Bandai/DDM/CM/VG/etc.), whether the card is exclusive to that category, and some general card characteristics (at the very least whether a card is a monster/spell/trap/tip-strategy/token/*other division any other card game may use on this level*). I think there's a lot of simplification that could be done if these parameters are handled correctly, with the added bonus of being able to perform a good amount of error checking with minimal effort.
 * For the specific example of Card Category::Monster Cards, don't forget the handful of vg-specific atk and def parameters. We probably don't have to worry about them if we combine the checks, though: . I'll go ahead and add this and the above tweaks for alt* (so that you can immediately start replacing instances of alt* with their regular variants, so we can drop support for them in the sandbox) to CardTable2 and the sandbox. 「 ダイノ ガイ  千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 02:45, November 30, 2010 (UTC)

Template:Ruby and SMW
Any idea why this is breaking SMW so horribly, and how we might fix it? Ruby would be a vast improvement over ..., from a code readability standpoint, so SMW not liking it is a problem. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 04:21, December 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * In the factbox at the bottom of the page, the value for "Ruby Text" is has the middle replaced with "..." because it's so long. This results in a closing  without a corresponding opening   messing the page up. -- Deltaneos (talk) 12:53, December 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * Regarding fixing, maybe we should report it as a bug. The new skin doesn't have the factbox and doesn't break when HTML tags are missing like that, so it's not a problem there. Newer versions of SMW allow you to remove the factbox, which is probably a good idea. It's not something readers need to see. Plus the link to Special:Browse in the sidebar (something the new skin lacks) can be used instead. Although, I don't know if that breaks too with missing HTML tags. -- Deltaneos (talk) 13:07, December 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've been trying to come up with some way we could accept a plain-text value for the ruby text and format it for display, while passing the plain-text value to SMW, but without some really interesting StringFunctions (and to a certain extent, even *with* them), I can't really see how it could be done. If we had an actual programming language at our disposal, it would be pretty easy, though.
 * As for a bug report, that would probably be a good idea, though it's hard to say when it would be fixed. I have a Bugzilla account, so I could post the bug I just need to know your thoughts on the best title and description. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 16:06, December 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * Since you've them applied those font styles to the "rt" tag, isn't the proceeding "span" tag doing the same thing to the same portion of text? So can't the span be removed, avoiding the problem, or can't those styles be applied to rt all tags by editing the Common.css page?
 * By plain text do you mean using something like "(闇)[やみ]より(出)[い]でし(絶)[ぜつ](望)[ぼう]" as the input and what's stored as the SMW value? Then CardTable2 and any page which asks for this value will have to use something to format it as " 闇(やみ) より 出(い) でし 絶</rb>(</rp>ぜつ</rt>)</rp>望</rb>(</rp>ぼう</rt>)</rp> "? I don't really like the idea of needing to apply the formatting to every page that asks for the value. It will mean we'd have to use  in every   that that uses , which will stop us being able to use the tabular format.
 * You might also be interested in this suggestion for ruby text. You might remember it from a few years back.
 * I guess the title of the bug report could be "Factbox creating broken HTML". The description could be Since the middle of long values visible in the factbox are replaced with an ellipsis (...), this can result in broken HTML. For example a value containing "span" tags can have the opening  cut out by the ellipsis and the closing   left visible. This can cause some skins, such as Monobook to break. I think it's also important that you mention which version of SMW you see the problem on. Maybe the internet browser and site too. -- Deltaneos (talk) 19:30, December 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * After doing some research (mostly reading the original and HTML5 specs; there's a shocking paucity of information elsewhere on the internet, compounded by the fact that the annotation shares its name with a popular programming language (which, even more unfortunately, is widely used for web development, making search results that much harder to correctly distinguish without actually reading them)), I was able to simplify Ruby to a certain extent, and it doesn't even break SMW now (check the diff I originally linked). I am currently playing with some styles that might let Ruby render in more browsers than just IE/FF-with-extension, based on http://web.nickshanks.com/stylesheets/ruby.css; do you have any idea what stylesheet Dantman was talking about in the linked discussion (in the meantime, the template should be deployable as-is; I just have to see if has the same problems with Ruby output from the template that they were having with raw Ruby code in the page source)? 「 ダイノ ガイ  千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 02:56, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

The Portal:Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (manga) page seems to be categorized under both Portals and Character Portals. It should be removed from the latter category, but I don't see it there when I edit the page.

Also it seems that the new look of Wiki has many other problems too like it has messed up the names of the cards (by replacing them with an un-existing link), shortened the pages by placing 2 large brown spaces on the left and right side of the page, and more. To tell you the truth I kinda missed the old-look style! Q_Q

The Thread I recently moved.
I'm not sure if I moved it correctly. I tried to move it to the Ruling Queries of the Forums. If I did it incorrectly could you fix it for me, and in the future how would I move a Thread to a Section of the Forums?Altyrell (talk • contribs) 21:51, December 15, 2010 (UTC)

Unregister User comments in my Talk Page
Please check out the latest post in my Talk Page if you can. He sound little upset that I changed the point of view about "Phoenix Mode" of The Winged Dragon of Ra... He also linked me to fake site (Pojo) for further evidence. I ever respond back, but just to let you know what's going on. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 03:09, December 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * That user sound more "pissed-off" about me being against the ruling. Little help please? He still believe that "Tournament-Ruling" legal are better than the "crap" that we are building and posting. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 03:22, December 16, 2010 (UTC)

Anger User Issue
Check it out! He seemed mad that I rejected his objection against the delete notice about that Card Tip. I am sure you can flip him over to right path. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 21:55, December 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Gotcha, and he tell me off with other user, which I am not sure if he is an admin, about me being disagreed with him. He should learn to behaving better. You can do whatever you like for now. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 22:28, December 16, 2010 (UTC)

I am not angry with him, it is just that I followed ALL of the procedures for expressing my opinion on a PROPOSED deletion as per the instructions under said policy.

He keeps deleting my opinion. he removes the discussion link from the page and I will not have my opinion censored. I was polite and succinct. There was no reason to delete my opinion on the matter.

Question: One of his reasons said ("TALK: Card Tip:Three Yadda" is what it should be. Now shut the f-k up!). Is he talking about possibly the name being wrong? if anything he is the one with anger problems. As per his last section of comment. I am just going to keep adding the discussion link back and restating the original opinion I gave regarding the ORIGINAL deletion. and the reason he gave for it. Glittersword 23:03, December 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * The reality reason he done wrong is that it's such to be Card Tips Talk:Three Step Opposition of the Six, not Card Tips:Three Step Opposition of the Six. He put "Discussion" infobox there instead. That's why I kept erasing it off from the Card Tip. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 23:11, December 16, 2010 (UTC)

I am sorry, but I do not see any instructions to "create" the page you speak of in the Deletion notice window. I followed those instructions to the letter. QUOTE: (If this page does not exist or the template is not in page, please add this tag to the top of the page: discussion). That is EXACTLY what I did. If that is not accurate then the notice needs to be clarified. Glittersword 23:27, December 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * The part before that is: "Please share your thoughts on the matter on the discussion page. "
 * It's referring to Card Tips talk:Three Step Opposition of the Six
 * The page does exist, so you don't add anything. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 23:33, December 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks, Falzar for making a point. That's why I destroyed it from Original Card Tips. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 23:35, December 16, 2010 (UTC)

OK, that is fine, if I missed that, I missed it. However that doesn't give him the right to delete my original opinion which seems to be on the right page, however it got there. (BTW: I am NOT angry.  However, what I am is STUBBORN.  Glittersword 23:50, December 16, 2010 (UTC)

Alright, what's stubborn's emotion look like? Take a look at the mirror and tell us what you saw. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 23:54, December 16, 2010 (UTC)

Stubborn is not an emotion, it is an attitude, a way you approach things. I did not once lose my temper with you, I did not resort to crude language (Even if a letter was replaced by a dash). I did not resort to insulting my adversary. I just kept on doing what I was doing and was willing to see who tired of it first. We could have gone into 2012 before I would even begin to get tired of putting my opinion back up. I have a "Don Quixote" personality and you were perfectly willing to be my windmill.

you deleted an official ruling of MST

"Mystical Space Typhoon does not actually "negate" a Spell or Trap Card. You can chain any Spell or Trap Card activation with Mystical Space Typhoon, destroying it. The destruction of the card does not negate its effects. However, depending on the type of Spell or Trap card, it can prevent its effect from taking place. Continuous, Equip, and Field Spell Cards are the only Spell cards that will have their effects stopped if they are chained with Mystical Space Typhoon. The same rulings apply to Continuous Trap Cards. As long as you chain to the activation of the Spell or Trap Card with Mystical Space Typhoon and target it, when the chain resolves the Spell or Trap Card's effect will disappear. "

Should be on there to kill any questions on whether it negates or not. Yes its common knowledge but some new players do not know this


 * Next time, please tap ~ four times, as it will magical put your user name and date when you completed "save page" it. And Delta also said that it's unofficial and card "8" is not exist. So be careful of what you're trying to place on. Ever "Mirror Force" still resolved though if it's destroyed by cute MST. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 23:04, December 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * This may be true which is covered in that text "The destruction of the card does not negate its effects. However, depending on the type of Spell or Trap card, it can prevent its effect from taking place. Continuous, Equip, and Field Spell Cards are the only Spell cards that will have their effects stopped if they are chained with Mystical Space Typhoon." it may be unoffical but ask any judge and they will tell you exactly that Sephirothx12 (talk • contribs) 23:13, December 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Making sense. If you still want it to be on the site, please put that in your own "Judge Page" under your user name. Like I have all over in my signature right now. -- F  red  C  at  Ta.P. • F.P. • J.R. • W.S. • Th.P. • S.C. 23:27, December 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * I am aware that "Mystical Space Typhoon" does not negate effects. You listed that as appearing in the rulings for a card called "8". As FredCat said it was removed because "8" does not exist and the ruling was unofficial. While it was true, we only post the official card rulings that Konami or UDE have directly issued. These are the ones posted in the "card rulings" section of the Konami website and previously the UDE website. OCG rulings are taken from the Japanese Konami FAQ site. The page I linked to covers the established standards.
 * The ruling about Continuous Cards having their effects prevented is listed in the OCG section, because it was posted here. If we were to post the ruling on "Mystical Space Typhoon" not negating it would have to also have been posted on one of those sites. -- Deltaneos (talk) 01:42, December 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * After looking through the Japanese site, this rulings has been posted here, so I've added it to the OCG rulings section. -- Deltaneos (talk) 02:05, December 20, 2010 (UTC)

Storm of Ragnarok
Hi, a long time yu-gi-oh fan here (though I didn't really like GX, but I like the tuner-concepts of 5Ds)! I recently saw the Storm of Ragnarok, and I wondered when it's going to come out. It looks very awesome, looks able to stand up to the strongest zombies and/or dragons, so I wonder when I could buy a pack or two.

Cyber archetype
Seeing as "Emergency Cyber" is a support card, shouldn't be count "Cybers" as an actual archetype, with "Cyber Dragons" as a sub-archetype? We have the Cyber Style page. Would be a good bet to move "Cyber Style" to "Cybers" and make that the archetype page. It seems redundant to have both pages, and I think we need an archetype page for this. Let me know what you think and I'll start working on it. I didn't expect much interest in the topic on the forum, so I figured I'd just ask you.

Also, there seems to be an issue with some of the VG deck parameters in the character infobox. The deck names were previously visible and now are not, though they still appear when editing the article. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 06:00, December 20, 2010 (UTC)

Ryoga
Yes it was confirmed, there was a trailer released today which showed him summoning a giant fish against Yuma. Also within the clip, it showed his name as being Ayer Shark on the duel score board.
