Template:TF card article
Hey Falzar, I've started working on a Tag Force version of Card article, and want to hear what you think of how it looks so far (and feel free to pass this invitation on to anyone else that works with TF info here).

Some notes:
 * It doesn't yet have per-game parameters for names or lores (this will require additional parameters to be added to Card table, I think, but that's something that needs to be done anyways).
 * It doesn't yet have parameters for DP costs (is DP short for "Duel Points" or the like?) or statuses (this will also require additional parameters in Card table for proper support).
 * It doesn't yet have parameters for extra images, but only for the TCG artwork and (if there is one) the OCG artwork (this will, again, require additional parameters in Card table, and I'd like to know how the games themselves handle alternate artworks and, in particular, how they distinguish between the original OCG and censored TCG artworks, since that could change how exactly they are implemented; also, do you know the maximum number of alternate artworks for a single TF card?).
 * It has a parameter for Card Numbers, but I'm not sure if the TF games actually have any such thing (whether it's a card number, a password, etc.). If not, I'll remove it.
 * It's mostly just a straight copy of Card article, meaning it doesn't support negative Levels or Dark Synchro Monsters, etc; these are used in the TF games, right (and if so, exactly what extra is needed)?
 * It (obviously) doesn't have any support whatsoever for adding card search categories, but neither does Card article, and at any rate I'm going to need a complete list of categories+values before I can add them (for a few reasons, not least of which is to see about cleaning them up some and possibly renaming some of them).

Now, a (really big) request: do you have the means to compare cards' info between games? I'm mostly interested in their names (for all languages), DP costs, and statuses, to see if we'll actually need per-game parameters for them (since the names in particular could potentially mean 40-something additional parameters), but if it's not too much extra work, I'd also like a comparison of card types/properties, Attributes, Types, Levels, ATK, and DEF, to make sure none of them change for any card. I also want to make sure no card gets removed from one game to the next, since if not, this will simplify the code a bit in places. You don't have to generate tables with this information, though you can if you want; if nothing else, it'll help when we're ready to start deploying the updated page layout.

Other than that, any thoughts or suggestions? Is there any potentially inclusion-worthy but missing information that I didn't mention above? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 08:30, September 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Now that you mention it, I'm not sure if it's supposed to be Duelist Points or Duel Points.
 * In some rare occasions, there are cases where different TF games have different artworks (e.g. Card Artworks:T.G. Wonder Magician)
 * Card Numbers are put into the Password Machine, where you pay a certain amount of DP after to get the card.
 * TF games contain Dark Synchros, but no Xyz Monsters.
 * Why don't we assume nothing has changed and put changes on the Errata page? like what we do for regular CG cards.
 * -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 00:55, September 15, 2012 (UTC)


 * Is there necessarily a difference between the two?
 * Okay. Deltaneos has said before that he'd like to get an alternate artwork system implemented similar to what Konami's database uses; when we get around to looking at that, the TF games will probably be one application for it.
 * Are the Card Numbers used in TF games always the same as those appearing on the OCG/TCG cards? This'll be another thing to compare between games as well, to make sure there're no changes between games.
 * I knew there weren't any Xyz; TF6 was released at the end of the 5D's era after all. ;) Are Dark Synchros the only extra thing they have, or are there any others (basically, I'm asking for a list here ;) )?
 * That sounds reasonable, I think. I do still want information on changed card names, though, since I also plan to add support for them in Card article and the other related templates.
 * One last thing I forgot to ask: is the name "TF card article" fine with you, or would you prefer to have "Tag Force" spelled out (or, perhaps, something else altogether)? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 02:01, September 15, 2012 (UTC)


 * There's no difference between which one DP is referring to, but I think games don't interchange between them. There was a few games which says what they stand for, but I don't remember when and which game so I can't check.
 * Card Numbers on CG cards should be the same as WC/TF passwords. That's what they were designed for after all.
 * I don't mind what pages are called, so as a result I am very indecisive about what name to use when creating pages.
 * -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 03:47, September 15, 2012 (UTC)


 * All right, I guess I'll link to the one with more info for now, and if you (or someone else) comes across where one of the games actually spells it out, I can fix the template if necessary. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 10:01, September 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * Actually, I think Tag Force 6 does contain a few Xyz Monsters, even though it's 5D's...
 * (For the record, Tag Force 3 is GX and contained Synchro Monsters) -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 07:15, September 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Should I wait for you to confirm their presence, or just go ahead and add support? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 07:40, September 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Google says yes... and funnily enough the first result was Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Tag Force 6. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 07:47, September 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Fair enough; done. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 08:00, September 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Tag Force Evolution as far as I can tell is basically the same game as Tag Force, just on a different platform. However, you can unlock some extra stuff by connecting it with Tag Force 2. I don't know if it needs a separate sets tab.
 * I think the names for the set tabs are too long. We should go with either just the name or just the abbreviation. One thing I've been meaning to get around to adding is title text for the language tabs, which show the languages' full names when you hover. Something similar could be done with these ones. -- Deltaneos (talk) 11:19, September 15, 2012 (UTC)


 * I've been wondering that, thanks for pointing it out (and without me even asking! =D ). I think the decider is whether Evolution has any cards that TF1 doesn't.
 * I was thinking that too, but I don't like the obscurity present with just the abbreviations. I was playing around with using HTML in the tab names and couldn't get it to work, but maybe I'm missing something. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 10:01, September 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * The Konami website said that Tag Force contains over 2400 cards. In almost the exact same words Shriek said that Tag Force Evolution has over 2400 cards. If there are any new cards, I'd imagine they come from the connectivity with Tag Force 2. As far as I can tell, the height of that connectivity is you link the two games, then you get 10,000 DP and three (maybe random) cards. This can be done once per saved game.
 * Yeah, it doesn't like that equals sign in, whatever way you go about adding it. We could use JavaScript to change the existing title tags though. -- Deltaneos (talk) 11:14, September 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * It's not just equals signs; the first thing I tried was  around the game names (actually, I think the first thing I tried was the wikitext   for the italics, but that's neither here nor there). I wonder how responsive Wikia is for feature requests on extensions (not that I have my hopes up)... 「 ディノ 奴  千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 12:08, September 16, 2012 (UTC)

Don't include the "Hell" stuff I just moved in your next bot run. It's under dispute now and may be moved back. Long story. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 01:09, September 15, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for the deletion. Sure could have used you before, but thanks, nontheless. E n e r g y X ∞ 12:18, September 15, 2012 (UTC)

SVGs
Hey Falzar, how's it going? I see you're adding some sharp new versions of existing SVGs to the site. Do you think you'll ever take on the task of creating ones for the Types that need them? Radaghast seems to have gone the way of the dinosaurs. --Golden Key (talk • contribs) 13:41, September 19, 2012 (UTC)

The effect of "T.S.o.O."
To let you know, Summoned Skull 2 had just disagreeing with your thought of the line about Character(s) can't using any Fusion Summon while that field card was activating. Therefore he removed that line you had adding in. May you go ahead and talk with him? I had some struggling to get him to talk with you but he polite refused with a honest comment - he don't need to hold the hand to do each anything he disagreed. I only suggested him to questioning to the one who believed that they should be included before go ahead and changed it. -- i  F  r  e  d  C  a  t  19:46, September 19, 2012 (UTC)

Virus kanji
Hey Falzar, could you change the kanji on File:Virus.png and File:Virus.svg to 菌, per User talk:Cheesedude 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 19:33, September 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'll make it look slightly less plain as well. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 02:12, September 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks, they look awesome (and words fail to describe the Trap-Spell design you came up with XD )! 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 06:37, September 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * A(n) Fusion/Overlay of the official Spell and Trap icons would be appropriate.

 * I... don't get it; I think you've finally managed to lose me. @~@ 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 08:06, September 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * Using Yu-Gi-Oh! terms to describe the process of taking one layer from one of the icons and another layer from the other and overlapping them, followed by merging the background layer.
 * The word appropriate can also be linked, but it doesn't really fit the context so I didn't. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 08:15, September 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * Aah, now I get it. Sorry for making you explain; I must need sleep. =/ 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 08:17, September 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * In short: TRAP.svg + SPELL.svg = TRAP-SPELL.svg
 * so I didn't really think much about the design :P -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 08:28, September 26, 2012 (UTC)


 * It still looks supremely cool; don't sell yourself short. ;) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 08:30, September 26, 2012 (UTC)

I recently uploaded an imge, but a glitch made it keep the old name. Could you rename it Yuma'sCards-JP-Anime-ZX2.png or whatever name is correct? Sorry for my mistake though. --BROOKLYN RAGE! 06:47, October 14, 2012 (UTC)User:BROOKLYN RAGE!

hey what's up Falzar FZ name's John aka foxack, i wanted to apologize for putting some rulings that are not official i am kinda new here and well i was mostly pointing out a simple thing about Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode. I added up just a small detail i hope you can agree with me on it but i do appreciate you fixing the sentence and the detail on it. Thank you very much i hope i can keep contributing here on the wiki.--Foxack (talk • contribs) 22:29, October 18, 2012 (UTC)

Uh.
I reverted all the Barian > Vector changes that weren't right after going through "what links here" for Vector. I think the rest are fine. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 00:58, October 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * The episode didn't, so the article specifically on the episode shouldn't. I don't see a problem with calling him Vector in the biography sections for characters though. In GX, I've used "the demon" as a generic term for Yubel for episodes before her identity was revealed, but bios that reference her for those episodes do call her Yubel. I think this is a similar case, except both Barian and Vector are official names. All that said, I also don't have a problem with keeping it as Barian for now either. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 01:10, October 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * I suppose. Like I said, leaving it the way it is now is fine by me. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 01:18, October 19, 2012 (UTC)

It seems it is "Weiss", not "Veiss". Blatch misread it, then realized it but couldn't move the page to "Weiss" since it already exists as a redirect and he's not a mover. So it could be moved to "Weiss". Here's the image he linked to. http://i.imgur.com/rKMkR.jpg Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 22:48, October 20, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, can you look at the image for LON-023 on the Set Card Galleries: Labyrinth of Nightmare page? The image wasn't actually a 1st edition card, so I swapped the image out for one that is. Now, the thumbnail shows my image, but when you browse it, it's still the old (unlimited edition) image. Did I screw up?

hey, why do you keep erasing my edits whenever I put something in trivia about cards, like saying how they look similar to digimon and putting references to digimon.wiki I'm not vandalizing so what's the problem?
