Editing, as I may have said earlier, has been deactivated. We had waves upon waves of automated registrants, and this solution - though by no means perfect and rather lazy, but also acceptable given the dearth of genuine registrants and limited availability of established users and system operators - has been discussed in relation to having users request accounts and sysops creating them for users. No other system operator has really weighed in on this or any other serious matter, so, I guess, 'whatever' is the attitude now.
Which is a damn shame because I'd like to join the wiki and fix up those templates

Wow! Someone is super defensive. I saw nothing negative in what Qfx was asking.
I apologize if you read that that way and apologize again if you failed to understand that I simply stated what I'd be doing to rectify the issue raised and asked how the relevant user thought of this, for his or her opinions, for the betterment of the wiki.
Now, in posting this, one might think that I'm being super-defensive. That, even if it were true, is understandable as you have raised this rubbish claim against me. It's utterly ridiculous, and I am simply acting in an objective, professional (is it really professional considering it's what it is?) manner.
In future, to save your time and mine, I personally will decline to comment or answer on things that I deem unfit for comment or answer. I may, however, leave a "No comment." reply, so as to indicate that I have in fact read things.

What is the correct procedure to get a new wiki account then? Is it to request one here? If so, I'd like one, please. If not, please direct me to the appropriate channel.
To register an account with MTGS Wiki, please click here and follow the prompts.
...which is inaccurate as that link now gives a permissions error. Also, it would be most convenient if the login wiki page itself had some blurb about the current process to get an account.

Hi matunos,
Thank you for your expression of interest in contributing to the wiki. Indeed, as you've duly noted, my primer is inaccurate, as account registration is currently unavailable. Also, thank you for alerting me to this gross and important error and for your suggestion. I shall take that on board and soon make an update on how to register with the wiki.
I am afraid that not only is account registration unavailable to you and I but I am unable to do anything about this, and that this is not merely something I don't want to do (which isn't the case) but it's something I can't do. In order to amend this situation, I have to awaken the wiki/site technical staff and - whilst I'm not 100% certain of this - I don't have a mainline to them or all that much support.
In short, I'll see what I can do, with or without the support of other sysops and with or without the people behind the veil.

No rush... no reason to wake anyone up or anything. I'm just interested right now in making minor edits where they seem appropriate to improve articles.
I am burnt-out with the wiki/MTGS and busy with real life. Sorry for picking this up only to drop it. This may, however, be the most and best that you get (for which I am royally sorry), as others mightn't pick it up.
Anyway, thank you very much for your contributions (though not exactly of the edit variety).
I don't feel like registering for the wiki, but I want to point out that I found anotherverticalcycle in Avacyn Restored. Who do I go to?

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
On the Supertype page, It states that Snow has no rules text attached to it. As of Coldsnap, this is not true. A snow permanent automatically has "Mana produced by this permanent may be used to pay S".

Fixed, thx. You are welcome the edit such things yourself.
To be proactive about corrections and other things, you are more than welcome to edit the wiki, a collaborative project run for and by users such as yourself. You can readily sign up for access, and all you need is a username, a password and an email account, where you just need to click a simple link!
How do you display a card tag as an M10-M15 version of a card? I know how to make other versions of cards (Serra Angel // Serra Angel // Serra Angel) but, post M10 sets won't show up for me.

I suspect you might be having the set name incorrect. [card=Serra Angel|Magic 2013 (M13)]Serra Angel[/card] = Serra Angel
The set name really sucks in the DB... so its sort of tricky. Sorry about the lack of attention as its sort of a low activity area.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.

I'm looking into things for you and the wider community.
We (by which I mean the wiki technician/owner) might enable registration. Sysops can't edit files; that's how the bikkie breaks.

Deck is <d> but you can add a title to that to by using <d title=""> and then </d> to close it out.
