			I've finished listing all the dungeons now. I also prefer the complete list over an index of separate pages, I thought maybe that list would be crazy long, but it's not that bad. I'll keep an eye on it when the devs decide to update or create more dungeons.

			It would be nice to search the dungeons by quest and level restrictions; actually, I'm surprised no one has done that with the quest template so we can search quests by level requirements and other details. That information is found elsewhere though I suppose - like on your list of quests by xp reward.

			IMO any page we have to maintain with dungeon info is going to be a pain, since just about every patch adds or updates some dungeons. I would prefer to keep a master list or multiple lists with the info we currently have (loc/restrict/patch/quest/map), but that is a lot of information to keep up to date with the ~1000 dungeons there are. I see that you have made huge progress on this already, but even when you are done, it'll still need to be updated regularly to stay accurate.

			The easiest way to maintain dungeons would be category listings, with dungeon articles getting categories automatically assigned to them based on variables in the {{tl\|Dungeon Summary}}.

			The main listing of all dungeons would then be [[:Category:Dungeon]]. For alphabetical listings, we can do something like [[:Category:Dungeon&start=C]] - that's not the actual syntax but I don't remember what it is offhand.

			Looking at the other variables in the dungeon summary template, we could probably create the following categories:
			* Quest Dungeon
			* Level ''X''+ dungeon
			* Mapped Dungeon/Unmapped Dungeon
			* Dungeon by patch or by year
			* Tieable
			* Recallable
			* Summonable
			* No Log

			Categories would not be as useful as a list maintained by hand, but it'd be all automated as long as people fill out the dungeon summary correctly.

| Text = I noticed that the [[Dungeons]] page is a quite a high use page but hasn't really been updated much in the last 2 years or so. I was thinking about just getting on and completing it by just adding the the 1,000 dungeons (yay), but that seems a bit in the extreme for a single page and not to mention a bit of a headache to maintain.

Do you think the dungeons should be separated by letter as I've done here [[User:Arkalor/Sandbox]] and leave the main dungeons page free for other information such as special restricted dungeons and popular dungeons? I was going to add a switch to the dungeons template so it would automatically categorise them by letter (for example, [[:Category:Dungeon (A)]]) so I could use the "PAGESINCATEGORY" magicword for each, but I don't now how to make that work with the little I know.

Alternatively, I will just leave the page pretty much the same as it currently is but with all the dungeons listed: [[User:Arkalor/Sandbox2]]?.

Any other ideas?
