Adding Maps
Would anyone know how to add other maps? For example, Tirisfal Glades is missing [61, 60] being the base of the Zepplin north of Undercity. Sanderdolphin 18:06, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Tirisfal Glades coords tooltip works for me. Dustwallow Marsh doesn't tho, [71, 51]. --

- All the map thumbs appear to be listed at User:Pcj/coords.js. I checked Dustwallow Marsh and it should be good. Not sure why it isn't working. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 10:11 AM PST 12 Jan 2008
- Oh wait it's working now that I looked at the 300px thumb. Maybe the server expires thumbs and you need to refresh them locally? Don't really understand how it works. -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 10:13 AM PST 12 Jan 2008
- User:Pcj/Zone maps automatically generates all the proper thumbnails when you visit it, if any start disappearing, open that page up. --Pcj (T•C) 20:53, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Can we get instance maps added? I'd like to add some coordinates for NPCs in larger instances. -- ScratchMonkey (talk) 22:15, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
Usage with place names
How can I use this in conjunction with a place name? I'd like to add coords to the page for Tower of Althalaxx. - ScratchMonkey (talk) 00:10, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
- I don't know where it is on the map, but something like {{co|50|30|Darkshore}}: [50, 30]. --Pcj (T•C) 01:06, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
- No, I mean stylistically, how should it be incorporated on a page like that? There's already a thumbnail map at the bottom, apparently another template, but it has no provision for placing coordinate dots. - ScratchMonkey (talk) 05:33, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
- I found the solution: Template:Zone Map. See Patch of Elemental Water for example usage. - ScratchMonkey (talk) 20:47, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

...in theory. Taken from Help:Tooltips/coords.js.
I like this idea!
I've got a coordinate mod, and as such, coordinates are generally easier for me to use than descriptions. Coordinates are in a standard format, whereas descriptions are not. Plus, not everything has a description of how to get to it - a lot of the trainers, for example. Not everything has coordinates either, but I'm adding them for the trainers as I use them.

Resized zones
I saw the edit to the template and think it might need the same thing done for EPL, due to a note in the Gatherer addon's change log about both SW and EPL changing size. -- ScratchMonkey (talk) 23:17, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
Darnassus broken
It's because the icons are misspelled as "Darnassis." I'm not sure what the best way is to correct this, so I'm hoping someone else will. -Howbizr (talk) 05:12, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
