The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Such programs are often written in a scripting language and are commonly referred to as CGI scripts, but they may include compiled programs.
- A typical use case occurs when a web user submits a web form on a web page that uses CGI.
- The form's data is sent to the web server within an HTTP request with a URL denoting a CGI script.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Common Gateway Interface article was read about 70,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 62 and blocks with 29: each hit it takes is cut by 12 %.
