	So, if anyone's up to discuss housing settlement templates, I started working on one based off of our newer designs. I am using the [[Far Claw Villas]] page as the example. I also have a mock up in [[User:Atarax/Sandbox2]]. Any thoughts, ideas, or other suggestions? --[[User:Atarax\|Atarax]] 11:02, 20 February 2009 (CST)

	:Looks really nice. Only issue I have with it is having 800x800 images for every house - that will add up to a lot of images and a lot of space. I think it might be better to either have smaller images (the 200x200 in the gallery is fine), or do a single aerial shot - or two shots for the double settlements. If we go with the aerial shot, it could be placed with maps instead, and there would be no need for the extra image section. Edit: One other thought. The Map Point Template can display up to 4 points. Perhaps we could include nearest town and/or settlement portal town? --[[User:An Adventurer\|An Adventurer]] 13:43, 20 February 2009 (CST)

	The only reason I thought to show them individually, was to show the house, the coords, and then possibly the item that's used for that house. So theoretically, you could do /hslist in game and find the coords, go to the settlement page, and then see exactly what it looks like and what item you need to buy it. This might be helpful for settlements where there is more than 1 type of house item required (like Far Claw).

			We could also redirect all the coords of the houses in that particular settlement to the settlement page. So if someone was to search for the coordinates that /hslist displays, it would redirect to the settlement page.
