The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- To build and curate an archive, one must acquire and evaluate the materials, and be able to access them later.
- To this end, archival science seeks to improve methods for appraising, storing, preserving, and processing collections of materials.
- An archival record preserves data that is not intended to change.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Archival science article was read about 18,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 71 and blocks with 74: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
