Cards Layout

[Lyelle]

Edit:

Attributes should follow this pattern:

blank: always use "-"

Price: 26   (and)  +1500
Rarity: Common/Rare    (and) Upgraded

Weapons: ATT/HP: 2|7  when flying

Yep I prefer the first option in each as they're more detailed and specific I've actually edited some other cards into the first format.

We've talked about this a bit in "Master's Dojo" but yeah, it's not visible to everyone


- If you need to leave something blank, always use "-" because it's the simplest solution and simple is good.

- Rarity is "Common" or "Rare" on the left, always "Upgraded" on the right (subject to change).

- Price is buying price only, like "42". Selling price is only a percentage of the the buying price so it's not relevant, and only makes pages less readable with numbers all over the place.

- Flying weapons is a good question.. Well, it's not going to be a regular "7/2" because weapon is a permanent. Lets go with "(7/2 when flying)". Brackets indicate something weird is happening and those two words explain it.


That's it I think.

Why not include selling price even if it's a percentage it's a different number and it's extra information and  doesn't make it look any more overwhelming.

I think it looks a lot more clean without the sell price.  However, it does serve as a little extra warning to new users that selling a card does not refund the full price of the card.

This leads me to wonder: does the average wiki user even care what the sell prices of cards are?

I think we need to add the card code for the deck importer.

Yep. This is exactly the reason why I don't see no point in listing the selling price. I find it very unlikely that someone will ever go to wiki to check the selling price of Firefly Queen.


We are not supposed to list all possible values we can dig up from a card. That will only make the page look cluttered. We should only list values that matter and people find useful to know about.

The fact that I added the name of the element in text mode might seem a bit weird but it's there because of search engine optimization.

I think we need to add the card code for the deck importer.

Yes, that could be useful. Although if we get the Deck Code Builder at some point, it's going to be not so useful.

[akromat]

Which deck code builder?

[Scaredgirl]

Which deck code builder?

The one someone will hopefully code at some point. Kind of like deck building in trainer, but with all the cards instantly available to you.

Selling price is only a percentage of the the buying price [...]

Except it's not. Or, well, I guess you could say that, but it's not the same percentage for all cards.

Unless I'm mistaken the selling price is about 68% of the original price, give or take 1%. That 1% is hardly significant.

I've yet heard any possible scenario where a person would go to wiki to see a selling price of a specific card.

[miniwally]

An example is actually now. You know how I'm doing the excel spreadsheet thing I need the selling price of some rares but now I need to go through all the trainer stuff.
