My only real advice at the moment is to keep it formal. The [[Modding EUO]] page is pretty terrible at the moment - full of smileys, chatty, references to 'egg this, egg that' which I hate. While references to being drunk and aussie might be factual, they are thoroughly innappropriate for a game manual, especially when I'm actually trying to scrub up the image of this game. Please read the rest of the manual, and bear in mind it's not quite as formal as I'd like it (being mostly cut/pastes from forums & the old wiki). I think scg's [[Bestiary]] page is a good example of how the manual should be.

I'm not sure if there should even be a fun facts section at all, and I'm not really into the list of NPC's. Having said that, stick with this template for the time being. For townes, I think the [[Mon Ferrato]] page is a good example. There aren't any complete examples for dungeons.

Since I've been slacking, I might not be the one who should be saying this. But I think the egg might agree with me on this. If you are going to make a page for a town/dungeon/other place, can you try to follow the format of previous places? Check out Nordhaven or Nordhaven Jail for an example. I wouldn't suggest listing NPCs in dungeon's though (although, I guess it's up to you). Mostly, I'd just like to see the coords, with a breif discription of the location and a 'fun facts' header (even if it's empty).

Then again, I'm only saying this because that's what I started to doing and I think it looks nice. Perhaps egg should have the final word.

I've deleted the modding EUO page, and message recieved. I'll keep it formal from now on. I always liked the way the compendium gave a bit of 'fluff' info about townes, and was thinking more of that when I entered my entries, not just solid facts.

Concerning Shrines

Kudos on filling in all the dungeon pages. One comment about linking to shrines though. I've noticed that you like to use, for example, [[Shrine of Sacrifice]]. However, each shrine doesn't (and I don't think will) have their own page. I would suggest linking the shrines using [[Shrines|Shrine]] of [[Virtues|Sacrifice]].

The difference is this:Shrine of Sacrifice versus this: Shrine of Sacrifice
