Yes, that's the current standard (dungeons are strictly a subcategory and do not carry the location tag, however there's a lot of old entries that were made before we started doing this and we haven't gone back to change them yet (I've got a list of dungeons with landblocks that I got about 1/3 of the way through before moving to other stuff and after I finish with the new map maker program will be putting the rest in. Feel free to strip the location tag from any dungeons that still have it. --[[User:Tlosk|Tlosk]] 19:20, 11 September 2008 (CDT)

This category should only apply to locations on the landscape that can be reached directly and without a portal, or basically any location worth noting that is not a dungeon, there are numerous dungeons currently listed in this category however, I propose we remove the location tag from any dungeon that is not located on the landscape. --[[User:Sanguis|Sanguis]] 13:32, 11 September 2008 (CDT)

Yeah, there are still many sections from when the wiki was first created that are a little messy. Feel free to clean up the location section however you see fit.

One thing I would eventually like to have in the location section is a list of every point of interest, things like the shore armoredillo cove east of arwic, static spawns of mire wasps in the blackmire swamp, etc. That way, when you go to creature's page and click "what links here" it will not only list all the dungeons they spawn in, but any static landscape spawns. The problem will be coming up with a good naming system. Each POI will need its own unique page in order for the "what links here" thing to work.
