How much longer is the translations project going to continue? At approximately 240 cards per language, and each card edit hitting the "Recent Changes" RSS stream, it's a bit noisy, and seems a pain to do, as well. Would it be better to have a single "Translations" page which has a chart, one row per card, one column per language? Then adding a new language could cause much fewer edits.

* I think it's worth keeping on each individual card page, and most of the other forumers seem to like the idea.  The problem with having a separate page is that it's unlikely it would ever be seen - what would you have link to it?  And there a finite number of languages the cards have been translated into, and most are just for Base and Intrigue - it's really only French, German, Dutch and Finnish that have had all sets translated, and the first two are done.

Welcome to DominionStrategy Wiki! We hope you will contribute much and well. You will probably want to read the help pages. Again, welcome and have fun! Qvist (talk) 05:53, 31 October 2012 (EDT)

Vanilla?

I dunno, I kind of would think Kingdom Treasure cards don't count as vanilla. Ajd (talk) 17:28, 16 June 2013 (EDT)

Why do you not think kingdom Treasures can be Vanilla? Harem doesn't have any text - only icons. It's as Vanilla as it gets.
I guess my thought process was, Kingdom cards are Actions by default; for a Kingdom card to not be an Action card is inherently a non-vanilla situation. But I see where you're coming from too. (Also, I think wiki etiquette is to continue discussions on the same page they started on.) Ajd (talk) 22:39, 16 June 2013 (EDT)
I wasn't sure about that, since why would you get a notification about my page changing? And I would disagree with the notion of a default Kingdom type - sure, most of them are Actions, but that doesn't mean the standard Kingdom card is an Action. Werothegreat (talk) 22:58, 16 June 2013 (EDT)
Well, fair enough, I guess; I'm certainly not going to argue with you on this. (I think the idea is that, since I posted a question on your talk page, I'll be keeping an eye on whether you respond? But the whole discussion should be in one place.) Ajd (talk) 23:39, 16 June 2013 (EDT)

Other recent edits

I'm not sure I agree with some of your other decisions here.... I don't think it makes sense to categorically exclude deck inspectors from the list of sifters; I don't think anyone would say that Cartographer, for instance, from the class of "sifters". And Digger doesn't make a good article title, since it's not a term people actually use very much; Donald X uses "digging" as a verb for what Adventurer and Golem and so on do, but I don't think "digger" as a class of cards is a commonly-used term. Ajd (talk) 04:05, 17 June 2013 (EDT)

Should the article be titled "Digging" then? It's a recognized category of cards, and we have to call it something. As for sifters/inspectors - there is a difference between what, say, Warehouse does, and what, say, Cartographer does. Cartographer does sift, but it does so on your deck, and has more in common with Scout and the like than it does with Inn and Embassy. I'm not comfortable with having deck inspectors as a sub-category of sifters. Werothegreat (talk) 11:12, 17 June 2013 (EDT)
"Digging" would be better, I think, if "dig" isn't a good article name. I'm not sure it is a recognized category of cards—searching f.ds for "digger" turns up almost nothing—but it is a recognized thing that cards do, so I'd rather name the article after the verb. Cartographer is a deck inspector (it lets you look at some number of cards on top of your deck) and a sifter (it lets you discard cards you don't want and keep others), just like Torturer is a terminal drawer, a curser, and a handsize attack; the fact that it's on one list doesn't mean it should be excluded from others. Ajd (talk) 12:18, 17 June 2013 (EDT)
I'll make some changes, then. Werothegreat (talk) 12:36, 17 June 2013 (EDT)

User privileges

I'm not sure, but I don't think I can edit user privileges and create new admins. If I'm right, you have to go to Qvist or theory for that. If I'm wrong... well, I still can't figure out how to do it. Ajd (talk) 23:33, 21 September 2013 (EDT)

Translations?

How much longer is the translations project going to continue? At approximately 240 cards per language, and each card edit hitting the "Recent Changes" RSS stream, it's a bit noisy, and seems a pain to do, as well. Would it be better to have a single "Translations" page which has a chart, one row per card, one column per language? Then adding a new language could cause much fewer edits.
