Overview[]
I've been working through a lot of the item articles lately and the format of the locations section differs between the pages, making it inconsistent for reading purposes. The main areas are:
- Significant/insignificant quantities
- Listing order
- Words/numerals
My initial thinking is that the policy should read as thus:
Locations where this item can be found (fixed locations only, no random spawns). These should be split by variant with a subtitle (where required) then list by:
- Base game DLC
- DLC - Place the {{Icon}} template at the start of each new line (e.g. * {{Icon|FO4NW|link=Nuka-World (add-on)}}Three can be found on shelves in the garage at the end of [[Bradberton Amphitheater]] in [[Nuka-Town USA]].
- Quantity - List from the highest to lowest in written/numerical form.
- Location - List locations in alphabetical order.
- Sub location - List these in quantity order, with a brief description of where they can be found
Listed quantities should be considered notable. Use the {{Notable content}} template for long lists.

Considerations[]
- Worded lists is more academic, but could make lists inaccessible at exceptional quantities.
- Item vendors - Should these be included? If so where should they be in the section? (IMO the ideal location would be at the top of the section).
- Do we include console command only locations?
