Uh, I'm just gonna leave this for people to edit since I have no idea what I'm doing. Good luck fixing whatever mess I created.

I was trying to go for being able to include the power and "range" of attacks and skills and ultimates, but that's a bit complicated for my skill level at the moment. Amaterasu (talk) 14:18, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

How about you edit Madoka Kaname in Magia Exedra and add the stats table manually (rather than via template)? Then we can work out how to templatize it. (Side note: I suspect having so many nonexistent sub-templates is causing issues.) ~ Celtic Minstrel (talk) 14:24, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
When I finish making the base for the other pages, I'll do that. Thanks for the suggestion! Amaterasu (talk) 15:45, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
I'm cooking up Template:Magia Exedra Stats/Test. All that's left is figuring out a neat way to list the skills, uploading Attribute and Role icons (requires datamining, much more complicated than in 'reco) and templateifying them, and wrestling Template:Magia_Exedra_Magic_Level_Cell into submission.

It's fully functional now. It's technically missing the Skill icons, but that'll have to wait 'til Steam release, since the .apk doesn't have that asset anywhere and I don't wanna fight an emulator EPF (talk) 20:07, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
Looks pretty good, but I have two comments. The skills section is huge, so maybe it should start collapsed. Using ruby to show the Japanese names looks really bad. ~ Celtic Minstrel (talk) 17:22, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
Yeah, I ain't satisfied with Skill display design. I'm currently trying to see how HSR wiki achieves what it does with its Template:Skill Table and Template:Ability Infobox, it seems kinda complicated though, and not really like something we'd want to replicate 1:1. They basically have separate pages for every "ability" (= Skill in Exedra), with necessary data loaded into the infobox. Then the skill table uses DPL (I have no idea how it works) to get the data from the relevant infoboxes. They also use DPL to automatically make pages for status ailments with skills that apply them, or for lists of units on the same Path (= Role in Exedra). It works for them, but we're not as much of a gameplay-oriented wiki, and I doubt we're gonna even make separate pages for Kioku, let alone every ability, so I'm looking for ways to meaningfully simplify their system that would also look good. As for the rubi, I modified Template:Magia Exedra Stats/Test to not use it, how does it look? EPF (talk) 18:32, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
I reworked it. Naturally, the weird sizing of the levelling table isn't what's intended, and I'm trying to fix that, but outside of that it should be pretty much "done" EPF (talk) 07:33, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
Yeah, definitely looks better without the ruby! ~ Celtic Minstrel (talk) 15:18, 5 April 2025 (UTC)
Another update: I got my grubby hands on game assets, thanks to which I was able to add the Skill icons. The scaling table should be all nice now, too. The only remaining problem is linebreaks from nowhere in Skill descriptions, but I have no idea what could possibly be causing that. EPF (talk) 12:44, 6 April 2025 (UTC)
