==MapleStory guide scope==
''This is to remain on this talk page permanently. Discussion should be started as a level two header (e.g. <nowiki>===Topic===</nowiki>).''
'''Note:''' since MapleStory is an MMO, its game content is highly volatile. We should never put marks on the pages that say it is "out of date", since, technically, the guide as a whole will always be out of date.
;Regional
*This guide is for GMS-only strategies and information, as StrategyWiki's guides are in English only and having multiple MapleStory guides (EMS, KMS, etc.) is not allowed (as a community we could change that). However, the feature tables may contain multi-version information, which is helpful for all players to understand release dates/upcoming patches. Major feature changes are easy to verify through online news (although, there is less of a guarantee of authenticity if the page is in a different language).
;This guide should contain
*How to play the game (basics)
*The best way to level up each class/character
*The best way to play each character
*How to beat all of the dungeons/boss raids.
*All quests (for linking purposes)
*All monsters (for linking purposes)
*All equipment. Templates are best so that tables can be transcluded onto class/character pages.
*Chairs - as these have benefits in the game outside of aesthetics.
*All pets/summons.
*All items, excluding event items. These should be categorized by type, as currently seen in the table of contents.
*Event monsters and event towns.
;This guide should not contain
*Cash shop items (most of these are temporary and their cash value changes). Noting these in strategy pages (e.g. class/character pages) is ok. No image icons or cash shop related sub-pages allowed.
*Event related quests, NPCs, and items. Although we cannot stop you from uploading this information or the related items, they will eventually be deleted once they become inactive (probably after a few months or a year). Event monsters and towns often return, but are less likely to change than items.
*Decorative items.
*Deprecated items. E.g. if a class no longer uses ammo, and the items have no use to players, then they should be removed.

It's nearly time for a Dual Blade job section! — [[User:Imjon|Imjon]] 22:33, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
:Dual Blade should probably get its own section outside of the Theif page, seeing as it uses a completely new weapon type and its playing style isn't too similar to the original Thief jobs. -- [[User:Imjon|Imjon]] 07:58, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

== VietnamMS's Big Change ==
Recently, VietnamMS has had a Big Change: The Addition of Leafre and its mini-dungeons, 4th Job Advancement, and Monster Riding. The said patch was due in '''February'''. However, it's March. I converted everything with "February" under Vietnam to "Yes". However, someone reverted it back (with "Soon"). I converted it back a couple minutes ago, but for people who play VMS, is this patch out yet?--[[User:Trickyb|Trickyb]] 17:34, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
== Removed Quests ==
i noticed that many of my completed quests was removed from the game. So i decided to add a list of removed quests here. I noticed only 8 quests which was removed (7 of them from Mushroom Shrine - KMS quests verision), so add more removed quests that you know about. Edit: Oh and i forgot to mention that there was a quest in the Phantom Forest/Haunted House that I remember to be on my list but I never finished it, so i guess it was removed.

:I found the quest i was looking for - "Smores No More" and added it to the list. TigerMan -- [[Special:Contributions/93.173.90.231|93.173.90.231]] 10:20, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
== Hob King PQ ==
Are we going to do anything with the Resurrection of the Hob King PQ? Currently it's only available in KMS, but it's been out since March. I don't see any info on it at all. Image of the Boss--> [[File:MS_Monster_Rex.png]] --[[User:BubbleRevolution|BubbleRevolution]]
== Big Bang ==
Our MapleStory guide is severely outdated now, with the release of Big Bang. All monster levels and drops changed, maps changed/rearranged, etc, etc. Should we archive things and start fresh? Or...? Anyone have any ideas? — [[User:Imjon|Imjon]] <sup>[[User_talk:Imjon|<font color="green">(talk)</font>]]</sup> 11:10, 20 December 2010 (CST)
:Delete everything that is outdated and put question marks in its place? [[User:Vigilium|Vigilium]] 12:14, 20 December 2010 (CST)
I've put placeholders at the top to warn people, but we need to plan out how we're going to update the whole guide.  I would say we finish updating all the skills pages (which has already been started).  I would like to simplify the template for that a bit and get rid of the dual descriptions.  We should start with the in-game description, and only add prerequisites (that aren't already mentioned) and the max level (since the content will be hidden).
Next I'd suggest we rewrite the builds pages.  Remove all the old/outdated builds and replace with new stuff (or empty spaces).  We need to pick a consistent way to display that, since some are really hard to understand.
Third would be the guide pages with the training locations and job advancement strategies.  We may want to comment out most of the training locations, since some may still be relevant, but most of that stuff is completely outdated.
We also need to update the Formulas page, the monsters pages (that's going to be quite a chore), the elementals lists, the quests (another huge task), and the party quests (this shouldn't be too bad).  Items didn't change too much, so we should be able to update that as we go. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 08:02, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
== Cash Items ==
I've nominated all the cash items pages for deletion.  I don't really see how they help from a game guide perspective (most are purely cosmetic).  Nexon advertises themselves, and it should be up to them to provide a useful display for them. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 08:04, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
== Summons ==
Someone [http://strategywiki.org/w/index.php?title=MapleStory%2FPets&action=historysubmit&diff=571581&oldid=564075 changed around the summons].  Is that correct? -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 22:04, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
:It was like that before the Big Bang. [[User:Vigilium|Vigilium]] 09:57, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
== Monster Animations ==
A few years ago i remember seeing each monster with it's fighting/dying, etc...
But now i can't find it! :(
Can i still find all those animations somewhere? Thanks! [[User:Jony772|Jony772]] ([[User talk:Jony772|talk]]) 17:39, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
:The animations haven't been here for years. I don't know if there's a current resource to find animations (the MapleStory IO team disabled their websites temporarily so that's out of the picture). [[User:PirateIzzy|PirateIzzy]] ([[User talk:PirateIzzy|talk]]) 20:06, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
== Main page outdated ==
It's been a few years since 2016. Can someone change the tense in {{Quote|On September 28, 2016, EuropeMS will merge with the GlobalMS service. It had been running since April 12, 2007.}}? [[User:SirMoogle|SirMoogle]] ([[User talk:SirMoogle|talk]]) 22:12, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
