Remove bold formatting?
[edit]Someone mentioned on my peer review for List of poker hands that the page uses too much boldface, and I have to say I agree. MOS:BOLD has a very specific list of things which require boldface, but this template seems to make a special exception for itself. Does anyone think that cards look better without boldface? For example:
- Four of a kind, also known as quads, is a poker hand containing four cards of the same rank and one card of another rank (the kicker), such as 9♣ 9♠ 9♦ 9♥ J♥ ("four of a kind, nines").
- Four of a kind, also known as quads, is a poker hand containing four cards of the same rank and one card of another rank (the kicker), such as 9♣ 9♠ 9♦ 9♥ J♥ ("four of a kind, nines").

- I have added a flag to turn off boldface, which I am now using in List of poker hands. Take a look at the page and let me know if you think it would be good to turn boldface off by default. Hpesoj00 (talk) 15:48, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
- This does seem at odds with the set of card display templates for {{Clubs}}, {{Diamonds}}, etc, which don't use bold text. --Lord Belbury (talk) 17:27, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
Wrong suit_name output
[edit]When I employ the suit_name parameter to specify a card, with the rank_name parameter, its output doesn't read well. For example, {{cards |Js |rank_name=full |suit_name=full}} results in Dhtwiki (talk) 23:36, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
, which should read "Jack of Spades". How can I get the output that I want?Change of card art
[edit]Commons has some more traditional-looking card sets available. Would it be possible to swap the current set out in this template, perhaps to commons:Category:SVG English pattern playing cards? Belbury (talk) 10:15, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
- I've now updated Template:Card to use the English pattern from Commons, creating the necessary joker cards for it. --Belbury (talk) 08:54, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
