These articles need the maps added.

Map Generator

There's a map generator that can convert the "Show Realm Map" page into wiki formatting called Isakus' Map Generator.

It will generate most of the map automatically. The only thing needed is adding information about special locations such as quests, stairs and shops using the MapNote template.

Map Format

Every map table starts with:

{| cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" style="text-align:center"

Then there is the top row of position numbers along the top:

|  
| 0
| 1
| 2
| 3
|  

This is followed by the rows on the map. The first and last column of each row has the position number for that row.

|-
| 0
| image url
| image url
| image url
| image url
| 0

The rows are continued until they are all there. Then the table is ended with the final row of position numbers along the bottom:

|-
|  
| 0
| 1
| 2
| 3
|  
|}

To mark locations on the map that are special, you should use the MapNote template like so:

| ...
|{{MapNote|image=http://fileserver.huntedcow.com/stairways/490_b.gif|target=Peitha (North)|type=A}}
| ...
