Template:Magic: The Gathering card/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage

[edit]

This template allows for convenient linking to the Gatherer Lookup page (Wizards of the Coast's official database search engine) for cards from Magic: The Gathering. The template supports linking to cards by name and by Gatherer-assigned ID number (found at the end of each card edition's URL), allowing for general and edition-specific releases.

Note that in articles, this template should only be used in the External links section (see Wikipedia:External links for more information).

A short template name, {{mtgcard}}, may be used.


For example, {{mtgcard|Wrath of God}} produces:

Wrath of God


While, {{mtgcard|Wrath of God|2373}} produces the Fourth Edition release:

Wrath of God


The name of the card is not required for the template to work,

Writing, {{mtgcard||2373}} produces:

Card ID: 2373


Excluding both name and ID number results in a link to the Gatherer Lookup home page,

Writing, {{mtgcard||}} produces:

Gatherer Main Page
