Templates for locations

Right now there's no fixed template for the various locations. I'm proposing the following:

1) Location description, including how players gain access to the location. Title: Location Name

2) List of shops available if any. Title: Shops available

3) List of mice that can be found and the possible drops they might have. Title: Mice that roam "location name'

The travel cost link should be moved to the main Locations page to avoid duplicating the links on every location.

My 'template' for locations can be found here (link in case changes are made to the page) --Peter888 20:03, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Suggestions for additions

It would be nice if someone added a note about the requirements to travel to certain locations, such as needing the Furoma Map Stitch to get into the Pagoda areas. I can do it if no one else gets to it first but I'm kinda busy for the next few days with work and the holidays. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 19:18, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

• To this end, I've converted the info into a table with columns for minimum title and other other travel requirements. Please fill these ASAP if you can. Thanks! -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 19:34, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
  • Never mind. Did it myself. :-) -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 19:49, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
    • You're too quick for the rest of us... I just calculated every average travel cost in gold, since it's the primary requirement for travel. I don't think it's too confusing. :P Revengeance 20:29, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
      • Thanks for the work, but average costs are wildly different from actual costs in many cases. Instead, I revertd your additions and added a link to the travel page where users can see the exact costs (and also access Pooflinger's Travel Planner). Hope this doesn't offend! -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 20:49, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
        • Of course not. Most people probably wouldn't have understood it, anyway. Revengeance 04:08, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
        • Just went back and removed the duplicate links to Furoma Map Stitch, since it was lost with the revert. Would it make more sense if the locations in the table were in bold and not the regions, considering the table is alphabetized by them and they're the main focus of the article in the first place?

          • IMHO, having a column in bold int he middle of the table would look odd. I wouldn't have a problem with de-bolding the regions, however. I think it's fine as-is, but that's just one guy's opinion. -- B.Rossow ^talk_contr 16:48, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
