:::::::::But...if it'll bring an end this debate, I'll accept changing the headers to "Mirage Island 1 - east of Dewford" and the like; maybe add an explanation somewhere that the numbers represent the order of the internal location indices (and maybe that the guide book uses that naming, though that comes off like the bad kind of trivia to me). Besides that, I don't know of anything else that would be remotely useful. (If you want to use the full section header in availability entries, fine I guess, if a bit pointless.) The only complaint I have with this is that it puts the locations in (from a usability standpoint) an arbitrary order, as opposed to the current route progression. I don't like it, but I'd just like to solve this more.

{{indent}}Using "Mirage spot #" no more ''forces'' people to look at the page than all the B2W2 entries that say "Hidden Grotto"; if you don't know what it's referring to, you have to look at the page. "but not too far north" was an exaggeration to point out that the directions are inexact. With a 360° camera and no form of compass, the difference between north and northeast becomes hard to tell. And keeping to the loop-de-loop of the routes for something that isn't limited to it seems more arbitrary; a clockwise rotation would be better from a usability standpoint. <small>[[User:Glik|glik]]</small><sup>[[User talk:Glik|glak]]</sup> 01:54, 18 December 2014 (UTC) | {{indent}}Using "Mirage spot #" no more ''forces'' people to look at the page than all the B2W2 entries that say "Hidden Grotto"; if you don't know what it's referring to, you have to look at the page.

:The directions of north of ''location'' or northeast of ''location'' aren't too confusing. There is a map on the bottom screen with an arrow that represents the player and which way they are facing. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 02:03, 18 December 2014 (UTC) | |||
