Locations Not Listed[edit]

Several locations which have Arcane Enchanters are not shown on the page curiously. I went through the previous list on Skyrim:Arcane Enchanters and compared them, and these don't show up here.

The category page is being generated directly from the individual place pages, each of which contains information on what crafting stations are available in the location. It has no connection to the list on the Arcane Enchanters page.
The place page information being used for the category is generated directly from the game data -- however, it does not (yet) include crafting stations located at the entrance to (but outside of) dungeons. On the other hand, the list on Arcane Enchanters has been generated by dozens of editors adding information, without any type of quality control/error checking. For at least one of the cases you list -- namely Stony Creek Cave -- I'm pretty sure the category is right and the Arcane Enchanters list is wrong: I don't remember seeing an enchanter when I was in the cave and I'm sure there was none outside given that outside is a lake. --NepheleTalk 19:21, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
Honestly, the best that I thought to do in that situation was to cross-reference the pages because they seemed to be linked (due to a redirect on the Arcane Enchanters page that led to the category page). I removed the redirects on the Arcane Enchanters page that were zones of other pages (on the list themselves) and that had no page of their own. The two were, if memory serves, Ustengrav Depths and Windhelm (which was an indirect link to Palace of the Kings). MethodicMockingbird 05:14, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
