Talk:Yu-Gi-Oh! Wikia

A small reminder
Cactus Bouncer's ability works only when another plant is on your side of the field. Due to this, if you tribute Lonefire for its effect, then you are free to summon your special summoned monster. At this point, Bouncer's effect reactivates. I think this loophole should be mentioned. In Debris Hime decks, you can still use Dragon to summon another plant type monster from your grave if there aren't any others already on the field besides bouncer. This is a key time to perform your special summons such as with Lonefire, Debris Dragon, Fertilizer, etc. Hope this helps. This is my 400th post too :D NYKid8295 22:46, April 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Actually, the way Cactus Fighter and similar cards tend to work is by preventing all attempts at the forbidden action. In the same way that Imperial Iron Wall flat-out prevents all effects that would remove cards from play even activating, Cactus Fighter stops Lonefire from activating its effect. It's a nice idea, but it doesn't work. However, your Debris Hime suggestion works.

Love the new page layout!
Thank you big time to whoever reformatted the front page, I have been complaining about the front page fortwo years and love that it's been fixed! Love and Peace! --MikaIzinsky 10:23, April 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thank you. You can leave comments here. -- Deltaneos (talk) 10:45, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

Featured Card
Maybe we should have a poll to see what people like for a featured card. We could just have a page where people could post nominations, Then anyone who likes them could just leave their Signature. I nominate Chaos Sorcerer Its a solid card that works well with popular decks. Its not to hard to find, and its easy to summon. Peace MCHatandClogs 15:05, April 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * I was thinking about doing one card from each set as they come out. This keeps the Featured Card up to date, and not changing every day. Remember, this isn't a fan-site, per se, so voting on our favorite cards may not be the best way to do it. DemonGodAsura 19:32, April 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * I think MChatandClogs has a good idea, there will not be a new card out every month, and some cards that are just starting to be used again or for the first time might fill in those monthly gaps. I think we should have a page devoted to voting, and then put the votes on the forums. --Tapper930 16:47, April 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well I'm not talking about voting for your favorite card, I mean we should vote for a card based on power, adaptability, useability, and all around strength in the game. Also, mostly all the people on this site are fans of the game. MCHatandClogs 03:53, April 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * I agree one per month is good, but we should stay away from mainstream cards, as everyone already knows what they do. DemonGodAsura 04:18, April 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * What defines "mainstream"? MCHatandClogs 04:19, April 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * Virtually anything from the most popular meta, such as "Blackwings", "Lightsworn", or even "Gladiator Beasts", and also no Staples. They are commonly known cards. DemonGodAsura 05:04, April 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well yeah that is totally right, we shoulden't mention those. I mean cool stuff not commonly used in the meta that could increase the power of most decks ie. Elemental Hero Neos Alius, Hes got solid atk and def, hes easy to search and a light monster so it works with cards like Honest and Chaos Sorcerer. Also ya can use him with Gemini Spark to zap-fry your opponents stubborn cards. By the way, yes I do run Alius. MCHatandClogs 12:53, April 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * I suggest that the main page feature one of the new beast-warrior type support that will be released, may be Akz, the Pumer. We all know that beast-warriors have been neglected for a long period of time. That is why they should be featured because the new support will bring a new dimension of playability for beast-warriors that many of us still don't fully comprehend.--Hide Head Turtle 13:39, April 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah! Head Turtle has the right idea! MCHatandClogs 23:12, April 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Maybe not "Akz, the Pumer". There isn't much it can do, even in a great build. DemonGodAsura 23:34, April 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ok, maybe not Akz, the Pumer but we are taking steps in the right direction. There are always new cards (and some old ones) that can improve your deck. So, why not post one on the main page? Or better yet have featured CARDS (plural). We could have a short list of like 4 or 5 cards. I'm not talking about "cool" cards I mean like what people think the new Blackwings or Lightsworns will be. MCHatandClogs 05:24, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Let's just stick to 1 card. The purpose of the Featured Card is to explain the use of an unheralded card, so picking an older card that complements current Decks well is a good idea. Going with multiple cards means only a few sentences each, which doesn't give enough space to explain their use. DemonGodAsura 08:01, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Assuming I didn't get my facts mixed up, new packs come out every 3 months and structure decks don't really have the best set release dates, but would it make sense that after a pack comes out have one card from that pack, followed by one from a recently released structure deck followed by older cards or cards from a special pack (like Duelist Pack: Kaiba)? I don't know, sounded like a good way to order it monthly. D.Kaiser 18:47, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well that might be cool to, but I just think that the featured card is not updated enough, I mean how long has Cactus Bouncer been up for anyway? MCHatandClogs 00:16, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hmmm... maybe Infernity Launcher or Infernity Beetle. -- User:Master of Dragon Knight

How about Testudo erat Numen? We seem to be going on the lines of "prevent Special Summons" with Archlord Kristya and Cactus Fighter. Ascriptmaster 02:29, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, that sounds great. It's a tech card that isn't really straightforward but has a lot of potential. Best of all, its a turtle. However, I may be biased on this one.--Hide Head Turtle 02:31, June 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * I was actually thinking of either "Substitoad" or "Ronintoadin", as they are key cards for a potent Deck. I think it's time to break the "anti-Special Summon" category, I mean, who wants to read about more ways to prevent Special Summons. DemonGodAsura 08:11, June 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * I thought the main priority here is to introduce cards that have a lot of potential but aren't understood by people. Frogs have become an essential part of the meta and a lot of people already know what those cards are capable of. We already know that they swarm relatively well and that they make for great tribute fodder, etc...--Hide Head Turtle 09:47, June 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, we do want to unearth the hidden gems, but "Testudo erat Numen" isn't a gem. All it does is provide small anti-Special Summon in a format where small monsters are being Special Summoned outside of Synchro Summons, and bigger Normal Summon monsters like "Flamvell Firedog", "XX-Saber Boggart Knight", and "Doomcaliber Knight" are being used. So overall, "Testudo erat Numen" provides minimal support. DemonGodAsura 21:03, June 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Isn't it about time for the anniversary of Yugioh Wikia for the featured card? I have an idea of "The Gift of Greed" for a possible candidate.--Tapper930 17:23, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

Page following
Whats up with the new and the blue layout? It preventing things from working. And I have to type in the URL to get to the watchlist. What's up with that? Idiot's page Future ruler of the world's talk 18:59, May 9, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's Wikia's new page following feature. The link to Special:Watchlist has been replaced with one to Special:Following. -- Deltaneos (talk) 19:38, May 9, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've added the necessary js to restore the link to the Watchlist... but it's not working. I don't know if it's a problem with cache, or if I've made a mistake. In the meantime, anyone who wants the watchlist link back, as seen in the blog, you can go to Special:Mypage/monaco.js and paste the following:

function restoreWatchlistLink { var wlLink      = document.createElement('a'); wlLink.href     = '/wiki/Special:Watchlist'; wlLink.title    = 'Your watchlist'; wlLink.innerHTML = "My watchlist"; var wlObj       = document.createElement('span'); wlObj.id        = 'header_mywatchlist'; wlObj.appendChild(wlLink); document.getElementById('userData').insertBefore(wlObj, document.getElementById('header_mytalk').nextSibling); } addOnloadHook(restoreWatchlistLink);


 * Follow the instructions on the page for how to clear your cache and the link should be back.
 * Also, anyone who doesn't want their watchlist to be shown publicly, remember to go to Special:Preferences and tick "Make my followed pages lists private". -- Deltaneos (talk) 20:18, May 9, 2010 (UTC)


 * Nevermind, the watchlist link is appearing for some people after I added the js, but not for me. -- Deltaneos (talk) 16:18, May 10, 2010 (UTC)

The trap card Appropriate?
If someone goes in their dreck and use his effect would the trap card appropriate go in effect? If not what cards would work for appropiates effect?


 * I'm not sure what you mean, but this isn't the place to ask. This page is for discussing the Main Page or the wiki in general. For questions on rulings, please go here and start a new topic. -- Deltaneos (talk) 12:35, June 17, 2010 (UTC)

Effect Changes
If the effect of a card in the anime is changed when it's made into a real card. Shouldn't that be shown in the Trivia section? Because I've seen it in the Card Appearances section a lot. EvilHeroDarkGaia (talk • contribs) 15:27, June 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * The appearances page is for anime, manga, book and video game details, including appearances and properties. Trivia is for information about the card that doesn't go in any of the other pages. -- Deltaneos (talk) 16:54, June 26, 2010 (UTC)

Trolling
I know that this might be a little off topic, but unregistered contributers have been trolling on these pages: Stardust Dragon Red Dragon Archfiend Dark Magician Black Rose Dragon

These are all that I found. There might be more, but I don't know. If anyone who has experience in editing, can you please put those pages back to the way they were? I don't know how to set the formats up correctly.

Spamming
I was wondering if there's a solution on permanently removing users who create and edit pages by posting random keyboard combinations and/or writhing articles that are not related to Yu-Gi-Oh in any way. I don't think it would be harsh to bann these imbeciles by their IP addresses and never let them enter this Wikia page again. Anyone else could share their visions on this problem ?! Fuel Synchron (talk • contribs) 10:13, July 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * They mostly just edit once and then leave. In which case it is easy to revert their edit(s). There's no point in blocking them when it is unlikely they will return. Blocking is only needed if they become a recurring problem. A block is necessary to prevent abuse, much moreso than punish it.
 * IP addresses should not be blocked infinitely, since they're an address not one single person. It can't be assumed that they will only be used by one person between now and forever. -- Deltaneos (talk) 23:10, July 23, 2010 (UTC)

Trade Bait Article
There isn't one. Someone create one or explain to me why we don't have one already, please. Zeroblizzard (talk • contribs) 02:36, August 1, 2010 (UTC)Zeroblizzard

New featured card please!
Ronintoadin has been there for a very long time! Can we please have something different? Also, is it possible to change it more often? Skullvarnish (talk • contribs) 22:57, August 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * People have been considering doing something based on the September 2010 Lists as the next Featured Card. Does anyone else have any suggestions? -- Deltaneos (talk) 23:51, August 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, "Dark Hole" was recently unbanned, how bout that. If you want a monster, "Chaos Sorcerer" was recently semi limited.


 * I was thinking something that takes a little bit more strategy to use, like Ojama Trio Skullvarnish (talk • contribs) 03:36, August 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * Maybe we should do Shooting Star Dragon as the cover card. Kicks butt. Not even out in America, and it has over 3000 atk.
