Delete/Move

In the same way two people who are barefoot are not wearing the same kind of shoe and two ice cream cones with no toppings don't have the same topping, two cards which have attacks we do not have a name for do not have the same attack. (I'd throw in "colorless is not a color", but in Pokemon Colorless is an Energy Type.) So... this category as is is bunk. I'm on team "delete" but technically renamining it to "Cards with attacks that have indeterminate names" is fair. Which also means kicking it out of "attacks with 1-5 cards", since the names can't "match" by definition. Salmancer (talk) 02:15, 27 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

That category seems to currently be populated via {{Cardtext/Attack}}, so its name could be changed by editing the offending pages (without editing the template), as long as that category name still starts with "Cards with ...".
I agree the current name is not optimal and unintuitive. Nescientist (talk) 18:21, 29 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Well no actually. The "attacks with x cards" categories are made by {{TCG attack category}}. So long story short, the only way to make this category stop doing that is to add an entire extra parameter which prevents the template from adding "attacks with x cards". For a single use case. That is not useful, and there are only two cards involved. I would make the category by hand. Salmancer (talk) 20:07, 29 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
