The quest list project works to create, maintain, and universalize quest lists for each zone. If you would like to help, simply add [Category:Quest list project members] to your user page.

Exact quest list format is still being discussed. Please see the talk page and give your input!

For an example of a completed quest, see Thousand Needles quests and Teldrassil quests.

For a list of all quest lists, see Quest lists by zone.

Project scope

Create, maintain, and universalize quest lists for each zone, with the goal of assisting players in finding quests appropriate for them within a zone.

How to help

There are several tasks that need to be completed for each quest list. A detailed description of each task follows. When you complete a task, please note in the Progress section below that it has been completed, and sign your name.

You can also help by adding {{Quest list project}} to the top of the talk pages for each quest list. This tag will automatically add the zone category's talk page to a special category for this project: Category:Quest list project, and will also be a way for people to learn about the project.

A boilerplate is still being decided on for this project. See the talk page for discussion, and add any input you have.

Quest tables

Quest tables should be formatted as tables using class="darktable sortable". The easiest way to create a new quest list is to copy the code below:

Example boilerplate wikitext for new table format

This is a list of all [[<zone_name>]] quests in table format (arranged by level).

<!-- Include below link to questing guide only if it exists. -->
For a questing guide detailing the best order to obtain and complete quests in [[<zone_name>]], see [[<zone_name> questing guide]].

== Quest tables ==
Quests which take place in [[<zone_name>]] are denoted by a {{Inzone}}. Quests which take place outside of [[<zone_name>]], but involve something in the zone are denoted by {{Outzone}}.

Quests which are part of a chain are denoted by {{Chain}}. Click the downward arrow to the right of the icon to view the chain. Smaller quest chains use &darr; to indicate the next quest is below and &#8869; to indicate the last quest.

Quest givers may have {{queststart}} to indicate they only start the quest, but may have {{queststartfinish}} to indicate they start and finish a quest.

The other quests listed either send the player out of the zone; or are in quest chains related to [[<zone_name>]], categorized as such, but take place out of the zone (and will have no subzone listed).



=== {{<Alliance/Horde/Neutral> Icon}} <Alliance/Horde/Neutral> quests ===
Descriptive info about <Alliance/Horde/Neutral> Quests in this zone (not many for this faction, a safe area for this faction, part of zone favorable to this faction, etc.).

{| class="darktable sortable" width="80%"
|-
!width="8%"|
!width="34%"| Quest Name
!width="33%"| Quest Giver
! Subzone
<!--
|-
| {{Inzone}}{{Outzone}}<!--{{Chain|<chain_below_section_header_name>}}&darr;&#8869;-->
| {{questlong|<Alliance/Horde/Neutral>|<quest_lvl_#>|<quest_name>}}
| {{queststart}}<!--{{queststartfinish}}-->{{NPC|<Alliance/Horde/Neutral>|<npc_name>}}<!--{{Outzone}}-->
| [[<subzone_name>]]
...
-->
|}

Example wikitext for alternative, expanded new table format

{| class="darktable"
|-
!   || Level || Name ||width="120px"|Starts in || width="50px"|Faction/ Class || Quest Giver || Prerequisite
|-
|align="center"| <quest_lvl_#> || {{quest|<quest_name>}} || [[<subzone_name>]] || align="center" | {{<Alliance/Horde/Neutral> Linked Icon Small}} ||{{NPC|<Alliance/Horde/Neutral>|<npc_name>}} || pre-req
...
|}

Use {{Inzone}} (This quest takes place in this zone) only if the quest takes place in this quest list's zone. This creates an icon denoting that the quest takes place in the zone. For most zones, almost all quests will have this icon. Use {{Outzone}} (This quest takes place outside this zone) for quests that start or end in the quest list's zone, but can only be completed by leaving the zone.

Consider using {{Outzone}} after quest givers that are not in the quest list's zone.

Use {{Chain}} (This quest is part of a chain ) only if the quest is part of a chain. This creates an icon denoting that the quest is part of a chain, and an arrow linking to the quest chain below (see Quest chains for how these are formatted).

Populating the quest table

When filling in the quest table, be sure to include the following:

  • Quests categorized under the zone the list is for
  • Quests which start in that zone
  • Quests which end in that zone
  • Quests which require killing or item gathering in that zone

This information can be gathered from any of the major WoW database sites, including [wowhead.com], [thottbot.com], and [wow.allakhazam.com].

Quest chains

Major quest chains which take place in the zone should be listed at the bottom of the quest list. These zones should be in third level headings named as follows: "<Quest Chain Name> chain". These chains should be in the format agreed upon on the Quest articles talk page, which is a numbered format. See Teldrassil quests for an example.

Naming

There have been several different naming conventions, but the one finally agreed upon is "<Zone Name> quests". Please be sure to name quest list pages in this way, and change any you come across with other naming conventions.

Instance quest lists

Currently instance quest lists are NOT using a separate page, since there are typically only a few quests in any given instance. However, it would be good to use a consistent quest list format on the instance pages as well. Please use the quest table format described above for instance quest lists until another format is agreed upon.

Project membership

See Category:Quest list project members for a list of project participants. To be added to the list, simply add [[Category:Quest list project members|{{PAGENAME}}]] to your user page. Please note that should you become inactive within the project for a long period of time, the group may decide to remove this tag from your user page.

Progress

Please remember to note when you complete something using {{Done}}, and sign.
