I'm in the process of building a human tribal edh deck. The "human" creature type first appeared in Mirrodin, however many pre-Mirrodin creatures were obviously humans. For example, soldiers and clerics.
Have all pre-Mirrodin creatures that are intended to be humans been errata'd as humans... individually? Or has any pre-Mirrodin class, such as clerics, been eratta'd to be humans?
The Great Lorwyn Creature Type Update errataed a lot of older cards to have more and/or different creature types, according to the race class model adopted at that time. And yes, the game designers went over all the cards and decided individually. Human is however just one of many races and not every cleric etc. has been made a human. Especially tokens were kept as single types.
Use the Oracle card reference to determine a card's wording (C.R. 108.1). A card has the Human creature type if its Oracle text indicates that, regardless of what is printed on the card. See also this thread.
