Talk:Mus (card game)

message: I redid the whole page with these objectives in mind:
- Explaining the basics of the game so an English speaker can understand the rules and follow them.
- Clean up the text so there aren't that many unnecessary Spanish words: for example, IMO, the 'cerdos' nickname for the Kings doesn't add anything to the text and makes it more difficult to follow. If somebody is interested, maybe we can make a new section at the end? note that these nicknames are very regional and not widely recognized.
I understand that this is not a direct translation from the Spanish page anymore, so maybe we should remove the 'translation' note at the bottom.
Todo:
- Add more strategy tips.
- Explain the 'mus corrido' rule to select who is the first player in the first game.
:*That's fine - I translated it but never got round to properly copyediting it (or, in fact, copying the scoring over). I think the translation note should be left as there are currently no references (making this original research - which is not allowed). Also adding strategy tips will make it look like even more like a "how to" guide which is not permitted - see WP:NOT (that's why I never translated that section). In my opinion the most important topic that needs adding is the history of the game. And welcome to Wikipedia, by the way. Yomanganitalk 13:02, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: *Spanish sources are acceptable (although English ones are obviously preferred). I think the strategy section as it stands is fine and could even bear a little expansion. At some point I'll take some photos of some of the hands and some piedras that I have from a set to give the article a bit of colour. Yomanganitalk 14:52, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Rewrite

message: I've added a statement about what kind of game this is, in line with other articles on card games (eg Truc). However, the Baraja page lists it as a vying game, while the infobox says its a trick-taking game. It sems to be both; is that correct? Moonraker12 (talk) 11:18, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Type of game? 

message: It would be good if somebody can determine the most appropriate spelling for the "all in" bet, brings it up for some consensus in this talk page (to prevent potential "edit fights" that waste time and effort) and then cleans up the use of Ordago/or dago/hor dago in the article. It would be clearer for an English speaker reading this page if the use is consistent through the article (and mentioning the alternative spellings is good, but once should be enough). The current mix of terms is simply confusing (I was adding some clarifications on the scoring sequence and I really didn't know what spelling to use, I ended up changing it to or dago which seems a reasonable "intermediate compromise" but I wasn't quite sure)
