Get the area id

Before being able to specify how an item is acquired (say from a map), you will need to make note of the place's area id.

It can be found on the wiki page for the area, in an infobox beside the Id column. For example, for Graveyard Map the id is MapWorldsGraveyard.

You cannot add the item into the area, instead you add the area to the item.

Edit the item

To add or modify where an item is acquired, you must edit the Item infobox on that item's page (e.g. Her Mask).

First edit the page using Edit Source or Edit (make sure to switch it to Source Editing in the editor dropdown menu)

Find the section starting with {{Item, and the first line that reads map_area_id =.

This is a comma separated list of area ids. Add the new area id you made note of above (say MapWorldsGraveyard for the Graveyard Map) to the list.

Save your changes

Save your changes, specifying where you got the information in the Summary box (e.g. Personal drop)
