Hi! I'm the main Bureaucrat here on the MTG Wiki. My real name is Ryan Schmidt, although I sometimes go under the name "Skizzerz" (as you can see here). I'm a sysop at StrategyWiki, a site dedicated to video game strategy guides. I'm also addicted to MTG (I almost have the comprehensive rulebook memorized, I read every novel I can get my hands on, etc.).

[edit] Other stuff

  • my decks (either incomplete or outdated (or both), as I tinker with them constantly)

[edit] To-do list

Gatherer extension:

  • Allows users to create new card pages simply by typing a card name into a text box -- the extension will handle creation of the page
    • Details
      • Grabs card and set info from Gatherer (beta)
      • Grabs card images and uploads them with appropriate names (such as File:Card_Name_SET.jpg)
      • Grabs rarity symbol images and uploads them if necessary
      • Uses info to create a card page based on the Cardpage template
    • To-do
      • Create /Gallery and /Rulings pages as well with appropriate content
      • Make it work with flip and split cards
      • Implement mechanism to rotate the card image
      • Per-version flavor text
      • Toggle between Gatherer wording and card wording for rules text
      • Figure out some method for Basic Lands (perhaps only one image per set?)
      • Detection for cards with the same name as sets/abilities so they can be tagged as such
      • Figure out why the {{Cost}} template isn't being subbed in on the rules text
