Archon Arcana:Adding New Sets to Archon Arcana

Adding new sets to Archon Arcana is a multi-step process. Everything starts with Spoiler Season, where cards for the next set get previewed by the publisher. These spoilers get updated as new cards get revealed. Once the set is updated into the Master Vault, we stop updating that set manually and use scripting tools to add all the cards for the set. Once everything is in, flip the set from being a Spoiler.

Spoiler Season

1. Add Set Info once set is announced. Leave Set Number blank.
2. Add Image and Card Data as cards are spoiled. Include link to source. New cards should be added using the Spoiler form. If the card is a reprint, just add the set to the cards CardData page, and include SpoilerReprint in the Meta field.

Notes:

• If source is a community content creator, honor a 24 hour blackout period before spoiler is published.
• If the card is missing information (including an English image), add Incomplete.
• If the card is translated into English from another language, add Translated.
• Images should be in the format Set-lower-case-dash-separated-name.jpg (or .png). Don't add ? or other symbols unless they are part of the card name. For example, Woe-membership-drive.jpg is preferred over Woe-Membership_Drive.jpg
