Hey, all. The people over at the English Wiki are hard at work, and I was just about to make a general regions page when I realized something - Enderal is pretty hard to regionalize, especially given how many very distinctive areas in the game there are. How I mean by this is the fact that the most significant regions - the Heartlands, Powder Coast, and Sun Coast to name a few - Are very expansive, and thus have distinctiveness within themselves.
For example - In the Sun Coast region, you have two major areas - The large peninsula where Castle Goldenford is, and the area nearest to Riverville. Those areas are both pretty far away from one another; So much so that if you said to your adventurer friend, "I'm going to go to the Sun Coast," he might ask, "Which part of it?" Would you tell him, "That large peninsula on the western end," or would you name it, "The Western End"? The latter, of course - Too convenient not too. (I've been calling it Westford for now, both because it's the Western-most region, and because of Goldenford.)
And so, I decided to take a page out of ESO's book - subregions. On the wiki, I've categorized the Sun Coast into a few major areas - Like this.
-Sun Coast
--Riverville-Bay area (That's another thing - Does anybody know the actual names of the rivers in Enderal?)
--Westford Peninsula
--Old Three Rivers (It's at the northern end of Westford; Old Three River Watch seemed like the most significant place closest to the border of the Sun Coast.)
What do you guys think? Any more sub-regions you think I should consider? Thanks in advance

Looks good to me, If you're willing to put in the time and effort to do this, just go with what you think. Once you put it in the Wiki, most people will just accept it as "the" correct terminology for the subregion without questioning it. After all, it must be right because it's in the Wiki!
Hehe, thanks. If I could, it would be nice to get some community input (the wiki is a community project, after all), but otherwise I can just do exactly as you say =P
I agree, go ahead and name those subregions
We can fight it out in the discussions page if there is something major that is disagreed on.

Hi Jemolk!
Thank you for your ambitious work in the english wiki!
Please use only names/places/characters that are declared and defined ingame. We don't want to confuse the readers / players.
If we want to change names etc. we have to adapt/expand the wiki and the game hand in hand. Together.
If you have a suggestion on how to name/rename subregions (not the big regions) or rivers etc. feel free to fill out a "suggestion" in our bugtracker.
But please do not make up new names by yourself. We are a community
kind regards
Till
