what is proper templating for this wording
Sorcery(R) Put a token onto the battlefield that is a copy of target creature, it gains haste,exile it at the beginning of your next end step. Populate.
If you copied the token would it too have haste/ exile at beginning of the next end step

Nibbling Imp: The "if ~ is in exile" bit isn't needed. However, there are some other issues with the wording. In the first ability, " if they do" should be "if that player does". In the second ability, "at the end of each player's turn" should be "at the beginning of each end step" and "any player" should be "a player".
thank you kindly

"Put a token onto the battlefield that is a copy of target creature. That token gains haste and, "At the beginning of each end step, exile this creature." Populate."
I think that works.

Keeping in mind I cannot use an E in the card at all, is there any better way I could have worded this? Also, is there a good word, subject to not containing an E, that can substitute for the word in red (though I'm sure that used is not the appropriate word there either...) " Narcissistic  Artifact Scry 7, and skip your upcoming turn. Draw 2 cards. This card won't untap until its untap ability is used.
Discard a card.
You cannot hold back against darkness. You only want to stop and look in a mirror.
As a note, the card does not untap in your untap phase. This may or may not be obvious. Not sure how I can include that in reminder text without using the letter E though... This card won't untap until its untap ability is ... is the furthest I can get."

Seed of the Conclave  Enchantment-Aura Seed of the Conclave enters the battlefield with 2 infestion counters on it. At the beginning of that player's upkeep remove an infestation counter from it. When the last counter is removed destroy this creature,then put a token onto the battlefield as a copy of that creature. Populate. how can i make this more intuitive

Scry 7, and skip your upcoming turn. Draw 2 cards. This card won't untap until its untap ability is used.

For this card to work (as written) you need to use E. Proper wording (close to proper at least)
Narcissistic --     Artifact (X)
Narcissistic doesn't untap during your untap step.
, Skip your next turn: Scry 7, then draw two cards.
: Discard two cards.
Some variations that alter the card but work for that criteria:
Narcissistic --     Artifact (R)
Narcissistic can't untap normally.
: You may scry 7, or Draw two cards.
: Discard two cards.
You can't really skip a turn without using an E and still stay true to general formatting. Even this version is a stretch but it works. Also, taking out the skipping a turn really makes a huge power level gap that needs to either be filled or altered whichever you prefer. I don't know how you want to go about it...

that's why I have it trigger if the counter would be removed... not if it's removed. That way it can only trigger if it were to be sacrificed anyways. Or you can just word it the same as Reality Acid , with the additional tokenmaking/populating ability. That way this triggers first. I'm not 100% with that... but I'm pretty sure that's how it works. The same reasoning for somes lands having Etb effects and some having as this enters the battlefield effects.

Won't work; if you populate the token it won't have those abilities that are granted by a separate continuous effect. Instead, they must be granted as part of the copy effect:
'Put a token onto the battlefield that's a copy of target creature, except it has haste and "At the beginning of the end step, sacrifice this creature." Populate.'
blah blah metal lyrics
