Talk:List of locations in The Wheel of Time

message: :Image:Map-aftertrollocs2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

replies: text: Well, I added a rationale whatzit to the image-thingy.  I hope that solves the problem.  I've never done it before, though, so please let me know if I screwed it up.  Nutiketaiel (talk) 13:08, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Map-randland.jpg

message: Due to the length of time that I spent editing this article today in order to tidy up the references, the version I saved was based on one prior to Jmorgawr's edits - effectively reverting them. While this was not intentional, I'm leaving the article as is for now to see if there's any consensus on the on how to split the article up. I can certainly agree with splitting off the Age of Legends section. Any other ideas? Futtock (talk) 19:33, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Splitting off the Age of Legends section seems reasonable if the article must be split.  I don't really see a need, though, and I am not sure that an article just on Age of Legends locations is sufficiently notable.  I think it would be better to keep them all here.Nutiketaiel (talk) 12:43, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I would like to see the article split because it is unhelpfully huge at the moment - even the table of contents is a pain by virtue of its size. But, looking at the Age of Legends stuff again, I'd agree that it is a bit thin to make its own article. A different idea that makes more sense to me now would be to have a new article for historical places and leave this one for places contemporary to the main story of the books.

thread_title:  [[The Ten Nations]] 

message: There are a number of problems in the organization of stuff between these two artices. I take it that Historical was split off because of crowding in this article. Now, a lot of places names now under historical still redirect to this one, and many of the places in this article contain information regarding historical place (i.e. Falme contains info about Almoth, and Almoth itself redirects to Falme). So there's a lot of organization to do, in that regard.
Another small thing: one article has the word "places", the other "locations". I wish that was consistent.
Anyway, it seems that there are a lot of locations that it is just difficult to find the information on, currently. --Longpatrol42 (talk) 02:00, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

message: Holy cow! Almost the entirety of this article is from an in-universe perspective. The first 4 or 5 paragraphs are good, but after that, it's really awful! And there is so much material that could be placed here about the real-world inspiration for each of these places. If someone could find a good secondary source... 216.80.142.142 (talk) 16:45, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
