So much to catch up on. I believe I forgot to weigh in here:

RE: Sublocation headers @ Eganogard and Ebony

That is why the Sublocation header is used, so it's not detailed under a giant wall of text. Is there a location page from Morrowind that is already fully detailed using either the sublocations header or none at all? Same with a location page from Oblivion that is fully detailed as much as it can be. I know where Ebony is coming from about most Oblivion dungeons all pretty much looking the same, so it's hard to go into too much detail about it.

It does sound reasonable to use Sublocations when needed, but individual pages shouldn't be created for sublocations, unless that location really is too huge to include all sublocations, an example of that would be Blackreach in Skyrim, it is a huge location and most of the sublocations would probably benefit from being on an individual page.

The Sublocation header should be a sort of location walkthrough, without using the walkthrough header, since we want to keep the header "Walkthrough" for quests only.

I am concerned that if it is not followed by a header that allows a more detailed description, location articles can end up with unusually long leads in comparison to other subjects, and push the table of contents down the page where it seems out of place. We can insert manually, but I highly prefer limiting the size of the lead and using a header.

Maybe this would be another case of "use it when it's needed". But, not under a "Description" header. The "Background" header seems to be the most widely used header for adding additional details on a subject. Can we agree to use the "Background" header if it's needed?
