The ItemLocation template is used to display the location of items in Dragon Quest games. It is specifically used to display the locations of a single item in a single game.

Usage

In almost all cases, using this template should be preceded by a heading for the game name and a 'locations' heading.

Header

A header call to this template should be the first usage of this template on any page.

{{ItemLocation|header|name=medicinal herb|console=GBC}}
  • header: A required parameter which marks this as the start of an item location table.
  • name: The name of the item. Should be the localization name of the game in which it appears.
  • console: An optional parameter. The console version of the game in which this item appears.

Entries

Each entry in the locations table is represented by a single template call.

{{ItemLocation|entry|location=[[Tantegel Castle]]|info=Treasure chest on B2 left corner}}
  • entry: A required parameter which marks this as a single location table entry.
  • location: Location of the item. Should be an interwiki link to a specific place if applicable. Otherwise, should be an appropriate description (i.e. Overworld near Rimuldar). For things like enemy item drops, this should just be something generic like 'Various Locations', however this only applies to random occurences.
  • info: This should be informative text about the item in the location parameter.

Footer

The footer call marks the end of the location table.

{{ItemLocation|footer}}
  • footer: A required parameter marking the template as the footer.

Example

Sample
