The areas featured will be of good quality but perhaps not widespread enough for a featured map. Users are welcome to nominate their own work. In-universe lore should be maximally linkable to the map, have a wiki article for the territory (even if only an infocard), and be no longer than a couple of sentences. Nominations are welcome, and self-nominations are preferred.

Excerpts from the travel guide are intended to feature links to quality mapping in the form of short, in-universe commentary. The areas featured will be of good quality but perhaps not widespread enough for a featured map. Users are welcome to nominate their own work or nominate the work of others with approval of the mapper. In-universe lore should be maximally linkable to the map, have a wiki article for the territory (even if only an infocard), and be no longer than a couple of sentences. Nominations are welcome, and self-nominations are preferred.
