March - August 2011

September
I don't think summons are ready yet. We've pretty much gone through the cycle except for summons. If we were to start again, we should skip character since there's already two featured articles characters and one of each other main categories. Start from dungeon again?

 * Oh crap... it is about that time. lol... It's been busy for me. Umm.. suggestions anyone? ~ dkpat 10:47, 20 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Personally I'd like to see a continent, like Angara or Hesperia... but for a dungeon, well... Belinsk Ruins? Comes with a secret entrance and several roadblocks. Vortex World 11:17, 20 August 2011 (CDT)


 * First of all, while we do have two featured characters, it has been a while since the last character, so I don't see any reason not to use one. Second, we don't have to do a dungeon. Any location article will do, such as a town or, as VW suggested, a continent.


 * Anyways, I don't work with location articles much, so I can't make many suggestions. I wouldn't recommend Angara, though. Someone thought it would be a good idea to create separate articles for the GBA version and the DD version, the latter of which is little more than a bad copy-and-paste job. I've been meaning to try and merge them together, but first I want to finish the projects I'm already working on. Hesperia or Atteka might work, although I don't know if they're quite as high-quality as some of our past entries. As for Belinsk Ruins, it has stub and addpic tabs, and the items/bestiary could do with a bit of expansion, but despite that it's the best option I've seen so far. Of course, we could go with Belinsk itself instead... The World&#39;s Hungriest Paperweight 17:46, 20 August 2011 (CDT)
 * I agree on the Belinks Ruins isn't ready yet. Good walkthrough but lack of pictures and bestiary. A continent is a good idea though. Something that isn't the main continent, Angara. Indra or Ocenia seem good. Even though it kind of lacks photos. Chinkycandie 20:28, 20 August 2011 (CDT)
 * We've still got a few days to get one ready, someone can add pictures as needed still. (I can't .. no EMU/ROM... and no time >_> College) But if you feel it's lacking then maybe someone can. ~ dkpat 22:24, 20 August 2011 (CDT)
 * So... Has anyone given this more thought? We are getting closer to the End of the month~ dkpat 18:36, 25 August 2011 (CDT)
 * I don't think we should go with Dark Dawn things yet. Most articles lack photos and a completed bestiary. Maybe Crossbone Isle from the original Golden Sun? Chinkycandie 02:30, 26 August 2011 (CDT)
 * We may have to archive this talk page soon XD Chinkycandie 07:00, 26 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Hmm.... So umm. I did a quick look through of the continents, but... discarding Dark Dawn they aren't all that good. Most of them kinda suck actually. They are just so short... surely There is more than beastiary to be said about the continents. Soo.. I'm not reccomending those. Maybe we could do a Lighthouse? (I haven't checked them yet but...) ~ dkpat 16:42, 27 August 2011 (CDT)
 * Hahahaha You read my mind. I was going to suggest a lighthouse too. I was thinking either Mars or Jupiter since they had the longest trials. Mercury and Venus were a piece of cake. Chinkycandie 20:12, 27 August 2011 (CDT)


 * Lighthouses work for me, too, although I think we should make our decision based on the quality of the article rather than the length of the dungeon. That being said, I would NOT recommend Venus Lighthouse, as its walkthrough is too fragmented (and even if that weren't the case, the bestiary isn't much better...) Any of the other three are fine by me, though. P.S. We have a DD image for Venus Lighthouse, despite the fact that it can't be visited normally, so could we get one for Mercury as well?

All three have their strong points. Mercury for the Dark Dawn snippet, Mars for End game and structure, Jupiter for the joining of parties and major storyline advancement... If we get a Dark Dawn pic for Mercury I am ok with using it, otherwise no. I really like how much storyline the other two have, but particuarly Jupiter more so. Mars is an endgame lighthouse, thus is full of spoilers that some may not want to know (such as final boss) While Jupiter is more of a mid storyline lighthouse. I guess I'm leaning more towards Jupiter and Mercury than Mars then. ~ dkpat 12:31, 28 August 2011 (CDT)
