What to include on this page[edit]

I saw the scepter listed for level one but without the formatting of the other items so I added that and also the scepter on level five. But now I'm realizing that these lists only show equippable items, and a scepter is not. If this page is truly for magical items, should the specters be here, and also the magic rubies, and potions, scrolls, and wands? If not, should the title be changed to magic equipment to be more clear? --Sir Robin (talk) 23:57, 10 January 2025 (MST)

I guess whoever made it first only thought of equipment, but while potions should be left out (there are too many of them out there) scepters, scrolls and wands are rare enough that they could be added.--Tribun (talk) 05:01, 11 January 2025 (MST)

ok, at some point I'll do a walk-through and catalog those things. Maybe not mundane potions like heal, mana, and cure, but more unique ones like fly and flame proof, it would be nice to know where to find those. --Sir Robin (talk) 21:20, 11 January 2025 (MST)

Location[edit]

I'm noticing a pattern in other item pages. Should this page be moved to a /locations subpage off of Magical items in Ultima Underworld I & II? --Sir Robin (talk) 07:03, 7 March 2025 (MST)

Sounds like a good idea.--Tribun (talk) 07:40, 7 March 2025 (MST)
Except that there is no Ultima Underworld I. Unfortunately, I can't think of a better way of being unambiguous.--The Ultra-Mind (talk) 07:50, 7 March 2025 (MST)
I tried to clarify the naming in Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss#Name, please corect me if I'm wrong --Sir Robin (talk) 08:16, 7 March 2025 (MST)

I don't see anything there that I know to be wrong, but I don't think the section is necessary. As ambiguities come up, we just need to use Template:Otheruses and if you want to give readers a heads up about initials, just put them in brackets alongside the full name whenever it comes up. Also, towards the end of the section there's talk about the populace, such as "some people". We need to be careful about speaking for the populace or fan-base.--The Ultra-Mind (talk) 08:24, 7 March 2025 (MST)
