:::::::::Unless the NPC has a purpose, they should not be listed. Otherwise, group them together. If the ToC is bothersome, don't use a custom ToC. If it is too large, combine sections or change the layout to a table, remove excess information and include only what is pertinent (location(s), rewards/quests/items related to them, etc.). Remember that you can easily fit those images into a table by resizing them (letting the server do it) to something like 60 pixels wide. --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 20:38, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

::::::::::It's a tough call on which NPCs (if any) actually serve a purpose on a characters page. If you're following the walkthrough you'll know where they are, and I'm pretty sure their locations are noted on the auxiliary pages as well. Other than where to find them, there's not much else except fluff like pictures and descriptions. The toc is a nightmare, so I'm all for cutting down the size of the page so it's unnecessary. I think NMH is right about a table format as well, as with shorter descriptions the name, picture, location and description could lend themselves well to table format. The hard decisions will be whom to keep and remove. — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 21:29, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

== Comptetion template ==
Hey, you probably saw I edited your template to make the date stay as the date you put the template on the talk page instead of just the current date. I also changed the the color of the date to red from scarlet, because I wasn't sure if that's a good color code or not (the date showed up as black in Firefox). So anyway, if it was showing the correct color for you in IE, then you'll need to find a close color in hex if you want everyone to see it. I'm not sure what your idea of scarlet is, but [[wp:Scarlet (color)|here are some examples]]. The hexidecimal code is the one bolded and beginning with a hash symbol. You'd use it like <code><nowiki><span style="color:#ff2400;"></nowiki></code><span style="color:#ff2400;">colored text</span><code><nowiki></div></nowiki></code>. — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 11:09, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
