Help
I started making this Page to start adding the templates to all the houses...but i noticed that they are way too many houses. So maybe we should use a List Template like the ones used in Creatures, Armors, Helmets, etc.

But im not good in advanced templates.

I've never been a proponent of duplicating house and guildhall information in the wiki. Erig's main site already has a fabulous sortable list of the houses with lots of good information. I think it would be best to provide a link there instead.

The argument to the contrary is that we could add much more specific information about the houses in the wiki (screenshots, additional furniture, bookcases, other benefits/drawbacks, etc.)

This is all great information to have, but can be very subjective, and I'm not sure if the information would be used enough to merit the work involved in adding it.

Anyway, now that I have sufficiently avoided your question this long, if you're still with me, I'll try to help.

The list template will require that each and every house has its own page in the wiki. That would be the first step. Once that gets going, we can add the template and start making the lists.

If you are decided to go ahead and spend the time doing this, I suggest that all of the houses and guildhalls be on pages named like they are listed on Tibia.com website. Should be obvious enough, but I just wanted to make sure that was clear.

Since this wiki is a community project, if anyone else has feelings or ideas on the subject, please post them here so we can make a good decision that is in everyone's best interests.

I just now bumped into this oh-so incomplete page here at Wiki. I see it's been dead for a while, so I'll start updating it slowly but surely. Starting with pages for the already existing houses/halls. I'll even try to dig up screenshots of the halls/houses as i go. --Ishar 06:16, 23 August 2006 (PDT)

Well buildings are still slow going. Pictures need to be updated, in Ab'Dendriel houses and a few other areas. ''Try to get the pic at the brightest time, midday, for best picture. Pictures are not required, but are good.'' I was also thinking Guild Halls should be kept a separate page with just connecting links. Once a city is completed, at least most basicly, then we can try out a template for that city's houses. Lastly i removed the Pay rent in: xxcityxx since it no longer applies with bank accounts; but then it comes to mind is amenities needed anymore since home things besides beds are now removed and purchaseable. Someone with time please finish off a city or all. :) --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 18:36, 17 April 2006 (CDT) 09:10, 30 December 2006 (PST)

Beds ain't purchasable and ain't removable.

tibia earth
On each house page would it be ok if i provided a link tibia.pl's tibia earth (showing the house) like oter pages do with tibianews world map, thanks &iquest;  Dis&Aring;st&eacute;r M&oacute;nt&ecirc;iro &#164;  T&atilde;lk &#164; &iquest; 00:29, 30 March 2007 (PDT)

Why couldn't you use TibiaNews world map for it, since every other page does use it too? --Ville-v 03:45, 30 March 2007 (PDT)

because tibianews map is an animated map of tibia, tibia.pl is comiled from screen shots so you can actualy see the house, tibia news is great for showingwere something is, but not for showing what it is. &iquest;  Dis&Aring;st&eacute;r M&oacute;nt&ecirc;iro &#164;  T&atilde;lk &#164; &iquest; 08:08, 30 March 2007 (PDT)

Tibia.pl's "Tibian Earth" does surpass Tibianew's map in up-to-dateness and detail. Alternatively to providing a link, it would be good to just make screenshots of specifically the house, or just to take them of in-game. The only problem for getting in game pictures is actually getting into the house/guildhall. Besides pictures, the page as a whole is awkward because it is so long. Maybe it could be done with having two columns of houses, side by side. With this format can color be added to rows/columns; i tried but unsuccessfully. If so this format can be applied to the Shops page as well, since it is easier to understand and edit. --DM ><((°> Contribs <°))>< talk to me 12:11, 3 April 2007 (PDT)

i agree, 2 coloms would be good, but i am still for linking to tibia.pl as u c ant jsut take ss's of there program :p and getting ss's of each house is a hard task. &iquest;  Dis&Aring;st&eacute;r M&oacute;nt&ecirc;iro &#164;  T&atilde;lk &#164; &iquest; 20:44, 13 April 2007 (PDT)

I agree with DM. We should only post the screenshots, that's enough. The problem is getting to the houses as he arleady said...And screenshots would be better if the houses had no items. Maybe we could just take the screenshot from Tibia Earth?

PS: Try to add a horizontal line before your comment to make comments easier to read. I added one between DM's and Disaster~'s comment.

like ive said, that is wrong, you cant just take screen shots from someone elses program and host them on your site, linking to tibiaeart, shows the house and its location in an interactive fasion. Im not saying that we replace screen shots with tibia earth, im saying we replace tibianews's map with tibia earth. &iquest;  Dis&Aring;st&eacute;r M&oacute;nt&ecirc;iro &#164;  T&atilde;lk &#164; &iquest; 20:26, 17 May 2007 (PDT) allso getting a screen of every house in tibia EMPTY is an impossible task &iquest;  Dis&Aring;st&eacute;r M&oacute;nt&ecirc;iro &#164;  T&atilde;lk &#164; &iquest; 20:30, 17 May 2007 (PDT)
