Talk:List of Final Fantasy VIII locations

message: I've just sectioned this page out into the regions found in the game, and brought the page into line with the very excellent List of Final Fantasy VII locations page. I'd recommend having a good look at that page to help guide further additions to this one.Gamemaker 14:53, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: In all honesty, I'd rather have the locations list here than on the main FF8 page, which is probably better served by a brief prose summary. I don't think article sprawl is a major concern in this situation: the real problem arises when individual locations are given their own article. Thanks for taking the lead here; I'll help out where and when I can. – Seancdaug 20:32, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Expansion of this page 

message: Some of the recent updates have renamed the major article headings - while the new names are accurate, I want to point out that they were originally intended to represent the geographical nature of the article: that is, we're discussing the layout of the landmasses, not their political makeup. I'm going to change them so they they follow this theme again; other opinions welcomed. --Gamemaker 13:53, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Location headings 

message: I'm trying to give each location its own subsection, and see how it looks... But I apologize for the blankness beside the table of contents, and the messy pictures under Balamb Island, as I'm pretty new at all this Wikipedia formatting (or actually any site formatting), so I would appreciate any solutions to fixing everything up. As of the time of this post, I'm currently browsing the editing pages. Thanks.

message: I'm pretty sure that they could be considered the same continent.  Also, aren't Trabia and Esthar considered different continents?  Just wondering. Deckiller 00:27, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge Shumi with Eastern Continent? 

message: I had some confusion about which continent to which Edea's House belonged because I landed on the large southern island and the menu read Esthar-.  I found out later that Edea's House does belong to Centra because this southern island is split about halfway; Centra is to the west and Esthar to the east. This also means that Cactuar Island is not part of Centra; I've moved it to Other, as the Island Closest to Heaven is under Other instead of Eastern Continent and also the Island Closest to Hell instead of Western Continent (Galbadia). --70.25.168.90 00:44, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah; initially, I moved it back to Centra, but I was starting to wonder myself (I do remember it saying Esthar somewhere). I think Esthar had to push into Centra territory far enough to obtain the Lunatic Pandora. Deckiller 00:46, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I edited a small detail in the section about Shumi Village.  Laguna went there while he was searching for Ellone, not during the time before he went to Winhill.  When Squall speaks to the Elder, the Elder says Laguna was searching for Ellone. I do have a screencap to back this up.

message: Why does someone keep reverting that Ultimecia is the antagonist to "main antagonist". I think that there's no one else that fits the description. Any thoughts? Does anyone mind if I revert it? I'd really appreciate feedback. -Eileen-
:Because she is the main antagonist of the story, maybe? There are other antagonists (deling, Seifer, etc) but Ultimecia is the main one. Peptuck 23:01, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, and I'm making a slight change to reflect her position as the "ultimate villain and final boss" of the game. Both of these are true, and she is the real, ultimate villain of the entire plotline. Is this fine? Peptuck 03:07, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

message: The streets of Dollet are described as ressembling those of Venice.
I was in Venice in summer 2006 and, really, the comparison is false. First of all, Venice has no streets, it has canals. There are narrow areas bordeing the canals on which you can walk and even narrower alleys. No motor vehicule, except of boats, exist in Venice. Even the architecture isn't that similar.
It's highly possible that Dollet is based on a European city, but I highly doubt it's Venice. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Xibys (talk • contribs) 20:14, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Seconded. To me, it looks and feels a lot like, say, some Eastern European city. In fact, from images I've seen of places like Prague, it looks very similar to the design of those areas. Peptuck 07:24, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Does anyone care if I change the locations known as "Other" to "Significant Locations"? I think other is just kinda vague. -Eileen-
:I think "other Significant Locations" works well for this. Agree? Peptuck 22:42, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

message: So what exactly happened with all the images with a clear copyright status? most of the images available in this article right now will be deleted in a week, if this happens I will revert the page back to those old versions, what I mean is all this unsourced images must get the copyright status right by then or all your work will be lost. -Dark Dragon Flame 03:18, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
