Star Cards is an NFT collection released on the Ethereum blockchain using real life celebrities and historical figures as the subject matter. The images and metadata were primarily sourced from IMDb, though in some special cases they were hand chosen from other various sources. The contract features a novel auction mechanism in which daily new editions are released for users to bid on.

Early history

This section is the core of the page and where you chronologically walk through the series of events that led up to release of the collection, the release, and the initial reception and following events. It's important to also provide the necessary context for understanding the historical significance of these events. It may help to organize this section into major events or periods of time via Sub-heading-1.

Recent events

This section is for walking through the modern events chronologically starting roughly around 2021/2022 with the modern NFT era and the phenomena associated with it. This would include a rediscovery for example.

Supply and rarity

The contract has a total supply of 586,155 tokens; the result of 1,699 daily editions of 345 tokens each. The last edition was released on March 17, 2023. The date is offset due to a 3 day initialization delay.

Due to the initial reception of the project, the majority of tokens remain unclaimed. However, tokens claimed by February 2019 are designated as "historical" tokens by the project owners. The total supply of historical tokens is 802.

Things to know

Getting Started

This is a template for you to start from. Just click the "Edit" button at the top to begin editing or if you prefer the more manual way click the "Edit source" button.

Infobox

All fields in the infobox are not required. For example, a collection may have an artist and no developers. In this case "Developers" can be left blank. Infobox is smart enough to just not display a field if it is blank.

Citations

For now we don't need to be over the top and cite every single sentence the way Wikipedia does. It's more important that we get down a lot of our knowledge quickly, then later we can go back and improve citations to increase the integrity of the information. That said it's still encouraged to do a few citations for each collection. All you have to do Cite -> Basic -> Copy paste the full citation -> Insert. To generate the citation any citation generator can be used and it is not required that all fields are filled in. In 99% of cases you can simply install the MyBib Citation Generator Google Chrome extension which will automatically generate the full citation for the webpage you are on. A citation will look like this.[1]

Spelling and grammar

Always reread and proof read your writing multiple times. There are free tools such as Grammarly that you can copy-paste your writing into in order to catch the things that your computer's built in checker might not.

Objectivity

It's important for the integrity of this information that everything is written objectively. Simple state things and don't add extra bias or subjective opinions.

Look to other pages for guidance

You can reference the completed collection pages on the timeline on the homepage. We're not going to explicitly create a bunch of rules to follow for the time being, but attention to detail on basic stuff such as categories, only capitalizing the first word, etc. will lead to a more cohesive wiki.

Get feedback

It's very important that you ask for feedback from at least one other person who is knowledgeable about the collection and then integrate some of that feedback.
