Talk:Treasure Chart

Filling Out this Page
Perhaps what we need for this page to be complete is a table that enumerates the chart number, where it is found, where it's treasure is, and what the treasure is. It would add so much to the article, yet still stay encyclopedic. I'm going to be looking into this soon, but if anyone would like to help out in this, be my guest! ;) 05:59, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Much like the Mask list, I guess. I can't help this article too much for now, sadly, as I need to replay TWW in order to remember what is found where. The only ones I remember now are:
 * 39 (Dragon Roost Cavern).
 * 40 (Southern Fairy Island).
 * 5 (Wind Temple).
 * ....... ....... .............................. 23 (Diamond Steppe Island).
 * Can't remember any more. --K2L 04:59, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I have all the Wind Waker locations, which I'll add... please do away with or use as you see fit. 13:22, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it would be better to have the information on a sortable table like the ones found in most shop articles (like Zora Shop and Goron Shop). It would make it a bit more presentable. The table could list the Chart number, the location, and the prize. What do you guys think? Edit: And acquisition, too. :P Dany36 17:25, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm thinking yes to that, Dany. It would keep up consistency and keep the article shorter than it already is. I'll look into doing this later. 19:58, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

I edited the treasure chart page by switching 12 and 20. I am playing the game right now and trying to get the charts. I noticed that in game the 20th chart treasure was not on Five Reef Isle, it's on Bomb Island. They needed to be switched. ~Skaleks

Table sexiness
It's official: the new table in this page is FREAKING AWESOME and sexy. I approve. :D I'm hoping to replace all of the tables found in a lot of pages (mostly the shop ones, like Zora Shop and Forest's General Store) with this new look. But if anyone wants to help out, that would be much appreciated since right now I'm kind of busy with TP screenshots. Dany36 00:29, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Phantom Hourglass Treasure Maps
While collecting names from my USA copy of Phantom Hourglass for a Spanish/French name run, I noticed that Phantom Hourglass calls their treasure-location guides Treasure Maps as opposed to Treasure Charts. The fact that the existing Treasure Map article, prior to my additon of the Spanish/French USA copy names for the Phantom Hourglass Treasure Maps, had absolutely nothing pertaining to Phantom Hourglass (in fact, the existing Oracle of Seasons-related content already there was so small there's a merger proposal with Jewels in place) is bound to confuse people. What should we do about this? Should we split out the Phantom Hourglass-related information out of that article and put it into the observed English PH name? Or does anybody else have any other ideas on what could be done? Thanks. --Shiningpikablu252 17:17, 8 March 2012 (EST)


 * Man, I wish I hadn't missed this so I could have commented before you did all the legwork. I'm not convinced this was a good idea given that Treasure Maps in PH and Treasure Charts TWW pretty much have same role. We tend to keep articles with identical purposes together on one page despite the slight differences in name (which can always be fixed with a pipe link). Examples of this are the Seed Satchel, Bee, Helmasaur, and Dinolfos. To quote Cipriano, from a reader point of view, splitting up articles of very similar nature "would prove more "jumps" and thus a greater difficulty to access the information one is looking for." 07:37, 13 June 2012 (EDT)


 * Hmmm...I can see where HK is coming from, and would totally agree to keep them together. However...the Treasure Map in OoS is vastly different from the uses of the treasure maps/charts in TWW or PH, so...would it make sense for the Treasure Map in OoS to get its own page, while the Treasure Maps in PH get stuck with the Treasure Charts from TWW? --Dany36 11:57, 13 June 2012 (EDT)


 * My thoughts exactly. 19:33, 14 June 2012 (EDT)


 * I'd rather keep the PH and TWW sections together on one page since they are so similar. OOS can stay separate, with some text at the top saying "For Treasure Maps in Phantom Hourglass, see Treasure Chart", or something like that. 07:52, 17 June 2012 (EDT)
