Alright, so for months now I've occasionally tried to think of a way to include about sections to locations on town/city pages. Basically, the table was just not going to make it anymore. We could list the name of the location, the type, and employees, but an about section? It would just make the format of the table look all funky and weird. During my spare time, I would sometimess try to think of a way to add an about section, but could never think of anything.

However, now I have! Today I tested everything out on a test wiki of mine and I believe I've found an excellent way to add about sections for locations. At first I used tabber and created two tabs - About and Employees. However, after I did that, I realized that pages with tons and tons of locations would be ridiculously long. Because of that, I decided to use the collapsable thing that we have on character pages. This way everything will fit nicely together and if you wish to read about a certain location, you are able to. You simply click show and now you can look at the tabs for the location.

If you look at Blackwood Mountain, you'll be able to see a lovely example of my work. You can read all about everything. Now, when you click on the employees/staff tabs, you'll notice that at the top there is the list of employees (or lack thereof). Below that, I have a list of possible occupations. If you're not sure what jobs there are at a national park, now you know! There's a whole list of ideas for you! Same for restaurants and stores.

Now, because of these lovely tabs, I've started brainstorming about how we might not even need location pages at all - like schools and such. I know - crazy, right? Of course, I still think we can have those pages, but maybe we could use tabs to organize those pages to make them look nicer. For example, I moved all the info from the Blackwood Home for Teens to the Blackwood page. It has all the info that you'll need.

If you have any ideas about anything, just let me know! Also let me know your opinion on the locations sections. If you like them, let me know so I can know whether I need to convert all the pages to this format or not. If you don't like them, tell me how you think I could make them better. Did you prefer how they used to be without an about section? Do you like an about section but want it differently? Just let me know and I'll see what I can do.
