The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- ASL is a complete and organized visual language that is expressed by employing both manual and nonmanual features.
- Besides North America, dialects of ASL and ASL-based creoles are used in many countries around the world, including much of West Africa and parts of Southeast Asia.
- ASL is also widely learned as a second language, serving as a lingua franca.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The American Sign Language article was read about 180,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 82 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
