Map marker images
Thanks for helping out with the local map images :) However, you're currently using the infobox parameters the wrong way round -  is for the marker images and   is for the local map images. Just to let you know. -- Porter21 (talk) 10:13, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll add a description of what a complete infobox entails to the project description - either tonight or tomorrow. -- Porter21 (talk) 18:37, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

You a row-bot or somethin'? I deleteded the piccy for ya, you don't need to be a heartless Wikipedia user here. Nitty 02:54, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

RefIDs
I'm afraid I can't help you with that. I play on the 360, which means I don't have access to the G.E.C.K. . All RefIDs I added awhile ago came from the Cell ID page. You may find the IDs you need there. --Sentinel 101 15:55, September 3, 2009 (UTC)

Moriarty's Saloon
In the notable loot section, we need to put a list of the loot, not a location. (i.e. does it contain a skill book, armor, weapon, caps etc.) Thanks for your edits!--Kingclyde 04:02, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Fallout 3 Locations Project: Give appearances section a uniform look
I'll take a look in the next days - although I don't think they need to be that uniform personally. -- Porter21 (talk) 20:57, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

House "marker" images
I've noticed you uploaded a whole bunch of "marker" images for houses inside settlements. They're not really required since the locations they're in have a map marker on the world map (and an image of that) as well as a local map where the buildings can be found. Just wanted to check back with you first before I delete all of them - do you still need them? -- Porter21 (talk) 20:57, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

Grayditch edits
I know the project guidelines quite well, I wrote almost all of them. Beds should be included in the descriptions but only in the most specific location article. For towns (like Grayditch) it means they are to be mentioned in the house articles' Layout sections. They do not need to be described again in the town layout section, just like the rest of the houses' interior layouts do not need to be described there.

I don't know where you got the idea that fire hydrants are notable objects which have to be described in the location articles but they really aren't in my opinion.

Regarding the images, images in an article should be moved to the gallery if they clutter the article. This does not mean that images which do not show the location should be left in the article, that's a different thing. -- Porter21 (talk) 11:09, September 19, 2009 (UTC)


 * I could hardly have foreseen every possible issue when writing the guidelines. In addition, this has nothing to do with revising the guidelines. Both the avoidance of repeated information and the removal of content which is not directly related to the article are common editing practices at this wiki - if I were to include every of these in the guidelines they would get far too lengthy and it would drown out the important points. I know that these common practices are not written down anywhere currently (which is why I initiated the Policy and guidelines project) and hence I do not blame you for not knowing them, but that doesn't mean you can blame me for applying them. I'm sorry if you feel trying to establish a common standard is disrespectful to the project participants, but if such a standard is not established we may as well just not have the project in the first place. -- Porter21 (talk) 11:49, September 19, 2009 (UTC)


 * Removal of unrelated content is not project-specific, nor is avoidance of repeated content. I'll give you that the latter may need project-specific clarifications regarding buildings in towns - it seems the issue stems from you considering buildings in towns sections of said town. Since they have own articles, they are not. "Section" in general refers to a loading zone; for standard location articles, the loading zones they are divided in do not have own articles but are only described in the location article (which is why the Layout section is to be divided into these sections). Buildings in towns are a special case and do have own articles since describing them in the town articles would make these articles rather lengthy and confusing for the reader. The only content of buildings which is to be mentioned in the town article is their notable loot to provide an easy overview. I'll add this to the project talk page and the guidelines if the participants consider it necessary.


 * That aside, I'll ask another admin to review the Grayditch edits to stop the edit-warring. -- Porter21 (talk) 12:59, September 19, 2009 (UTC)

Geologist, perhaps?
I like the addition of "fault-block mountain" in MDPL-05 Power Station.--Faran Brygo 12:03, March 31, 2010 (UTC)
