Example of a complete decoration page: Kodan Hero Statue for homestead, Lion Statue for guild hall

  • Update all decorations (homestead and guild hall) to use the new Decoration infobox and fill the information accurately. Full lists of decorations can be found here for homesteads, and here for guild halls
  • Darq's GW2 Easy Mode can help tremendously with creating infoboxes for decoration, as it directly pulls info from the API, minimizing the need for manual search in the API.
    • Decorations can be either manually searched via Main page > Homestead, and the newest decorations in the API can be viewed under View New Entries > Homestead.
  • For groups, use the ingame categorizing: each decoration belongs to at least one group - for example, the Traditional Kodan Bed belongs to the "table and seating" and "janthir wilds" groups, while the Plush Choya Pal belongs to "black lion"
    • Subgroups are non-functional and might be a part of this project later.
    • The correct groups can be found either ingame (requires crafting the decoration), or by using the Homestead/decorations API, which lists both the "deco id" and correct groups. Both the decorations and groups appear under a number thus the need to search for them manually. The table below can be used to cross reference the groups based on the Homestead/decorations/categories API.
  • Add "decoration id" to all homestead decorations, as per the Homestead/decorations API. The decorations appear under a number and thus have to be searched manually.
    • An alternate way to get decoration id is through Darq's GW2 Easy Mode.
    • Guild hall decorations instead use normal item id.
  • Add Template:Otheruses to decorations that share their name. Example on Plush Armchair (Handiwork): {{otheruses|the [[homestead]] decoration|the [[guild hall]] decoration|Plush Armchair}}
  • Add a correct nav where missing:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
