Areas should be incorporated as categories rather than as pages on this Wiki. An area's category's title should equal that area's offical name without any leading articles (namely A, An, or The) and with all of its words capitalized (as in Sea Of Strayed Hopes). The following format is recommended for each area-category's content:

An "official" description of this area.

Level Range: level range

Builder: builder name

Directions

Include at least one of these three lines:

Walking route from Nom: walking directions from Nom.

Walking route from Sol: walking directions from Sol.

Walking route from Aelmon: walking directions from Aelmon.

If this area contains no suitable portal-points, then include this line, as well:

Walking route from [[portal-point nearby |portal point keyword(s)]]: walking directions from this portal-point.

List at least one suitable portal-point on this line or state 'none' if none exist:

Portaling point(s) suggested: [[portal-point #1 |portal-point #1 keyword(s)]], [[portal-point #2 |portal-point #2 keyword(s)]], [[portal-point #3 |portal-point #3 keyword(s)]], et cetera. (also note any important pp qualities like aggressiveness or stealthiness)

Connections

A description noting this area's adjoining areas, if any, and detailing where and how they connect. This section is especially important for areas without maps.

Navigation

A description explaining this area's basic layout, detailing how to find one's way around it. This section is especially important for areas without maps.

Adventuring

A description instructing players how best to gain experience and such in this area.


Create as many of these subcategories as may apply:
[[Category: Gear In This Area]] (also a subcategory of [[Category: Gear]])
[[Category: Mobs In This Area]] (also a subcategory of [[Category: Mobs]])
[[Category: Quests In This Area]] (also a subcategory of [[Category: Ticket Quests]])


If this area is grandfathered, then file it in:
[[Category: Grandfathered Areas]]

If this area is not grandfathered, then file it in as many of these as may apply (based upon official level range above):
[[Category: Lawful Areas]]
[[Category: Special Areas]]
[[Category: Lowmort 1-10 Areas]]
[[Category: Lowmort 11-20 Areas]]
[[Category: Lowmort 21-30 Areas]]
[[Category: Lowmort 31-40 Areas]]
[[Category: Lowmort 41-50 Areas]]
[[Category: Hero Areas]]

If this area is incomplete, then also file it in...
[[Category: Incomplete]]
...until it has been completed.


See also existing area categories for both examples and ideas regarding content.
