The Fallout 4 locations project is a project that aims to bring all locations in Fallout 4 and it's add-ons to article layout standards.

Scope[]

Bring all locations in line with Location article guideline, with the primary focus on the background and layout sections.

Guidelines[]

Lead section[]

Short summary of the location, must include the title of the article in hold, where it is located, by district then subdistrict (where relevant) and its appearance in the timeline.

Example:The Fraternal Post 115 is a location in the Commonwealth in 2287.

Background[]

Where applicable, update all background information, ensure all sources are referenced, using the format <ref>[[Article name]]: Excerpt from the article</ref>. If there are multiple references to a page, reference the page only on short articles or link to the subsection and title the link to the subsection, e.g. [[Fraternal Post 115 terminal entries#Speech memo|Speech memo]]: We're overjoyed to have such a decorated war hero like [player name/Nate] giving a speech in Concord. We should try to get him down here, too. It always brings in people (and funding). will read:

Speech memo: We're overjoyed to have such a decorated war hero like [player name/Nate] giving a speech in Concord. We should try to get him down here, too. It always brings in people (and funding).

The references section should be included at the bottom of the article with the {{references}} template.

Layout[]

Extract from Location article guideline:

General location[]

Describe the layout for each section: what it looks like, connections to the other sections, how many and what type of enemy can be found here. Make a subsection for each zone of the location, titled with the ingame name of the zone. Start with a section called "Exterior" where you describe the entrance area. The basic premise is that the section should give someone who has not seen the location an idea of what it looks like and how it is set up.

Example pages[]

Settlement/District[]

General description of the location's layout. If the settlement/district is split into multiple zones, describe each of them here and which buildings are located in each. Describe what it looks like, connections to the outside world, how many and what type of enemy can be found here (if there are any). Make a subsection for each zone of the location, titled with the ingame name of the zone. The basic premise is that the section should give someone who has not seen the location an idea of what it looks like and how it is set up.

Behind the scenes[]

Where there is reference to a real world location:

  • Include a link to the relevant Wikipedia article using the {{Wikipedia}} template.
  • Enclose these references inside the {{Behind the scenes}} template.
