IMO just because something is an alternative to something else doesn't necessarily make it a "rip off" though i think it has many similarities to MTG.

oh and for the references what about cards like Ahithophel that band to evil characters  with reference from II Samuel 14-17? if you just have II samuel as the reference on a card how will you know? I think we shoud do reference like "luke reference" but then have the exact scripture as a category too(also for cards like david so you know if his name is in the scripture or not)

I say no, because we dont need to have 1000000 categories for every scripture reference. If anything, do it only for the cards that specify it, but I see no reason to do it for every card.

Also, another way around this is to simply talk about it on the card page, and link to the cards you can use with it. We can also do this with cards like High Places.

*EDIT*

http://redemption.wikia.com/wiki/Ahithophel <-- Using your own example.

Can we please get this stickied?

You arent quite doing it right. Go to View Source and copy it in. I'll edit King Joash and Esther for you to show you how its done.

Okay yeah I totally get it now. Thanks man!

There's still one thing I don't get: How do I post the picture? I think I've got everything else down.

Well my question is what IS The URL? But I figured it out. I'm not exactly computer savvy, haha.

LN, one more thing I've noticed.

For the reference, please make it "Acts Reference" rather than just "Acts" Check the master list of categories to see which ones you should use.

Yeah, it takes a little bit to get used to the system, but once you've done a few it gets easier.

Just finished Catalyst, a "campus days" sort of thing for Masters's Commission, which is why I haven't been as available as I'd like to be.  Did introduce several people to Redemption.

Lambo's now an Admin.  We're not going to do an individual scripture category, that wouldn't work how you want it to.  What you can do is link all applicable cards in the "Card Links" section, as Lambo said.
To all the people who are new to Wikis, good job persevering.  Your assistance here is crucial.
As to the history page, I'd like to have one originally written, not just (lovingly) ripped off of Cactus' site.  That's low priority though.
I've created a template for pages that don't conform to our standards.  Simply add {{code}} to the top of a page.

This is a way cool idea. It's gonna take a long time to get up to par though.

   Nice Idea!

It shouldn't take too long once people get the hang of the formatting. I'd guess we could have the majority of this done before the end of the summer if we constantly work on it.

69 total articles, at last count.
Considering how the standard card article is one step above stub, that's pretty good.

That is an issue.  What happens when you try?
