Merge
Yeah, I don't see the point of having 1 page per gem. All of the available info is here. Happypal 08:56, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Agreed. --Demian 08:58, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Last warning before I make the merge effective. Happypal 08:36, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
 * i wan't it moved!!!!!
 * It will have to wait through the Week End. Happypal 18:56, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

Done. 12:25, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Links
Is there any reason for "item unlink"? I would say it's better if they're linked.
 * It was in prevision of an upcomming merge (in which case a link would be useless). Happypal 19:34, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Move
Speak now or forever hold your peace. Happypal 06:41, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm speaking now. Do not move this page. -- Wynthyst [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png ]] talk  06:47, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Goodness. I thought we were having a discussion. I want to move it because "Gem" is more appropriate. It is singular like every other pages about anything. Impacts are slim to none. Happypal 06:50, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree that this and all other pages should have singular titles. Links to plural titled pages have to have their text altered for a singular form, while a singular title only requires an 's' after the brackets to be changed. -- Michael 19:03, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

Done. 12:25, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Gem's Rarity
I know map viewers are looked down upon, but the whole "deeper you go rarer gems you find thing" was bugging me, as I know I found diamond fairly close to the surface, and topaz lower down. So I decided to download one that marked out gem locations, and started a completely blank map. To my surprise, I discovered that depth has no influence on the chance of a gemtype spawning. I did notice that diamonds spawned more frequently in jungles however. I'm going to test some more maps now to see whether that was coincidence or is actually a fact. I'll post a picture of the world so you can see what I mean in a second.--Doctor G33K 01:06, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

Edit: Here's a pic. The diamond thing was just a random two worlds that happened to have more diamonds in the jungle. Point is, gems are evenly spread out throughout the world.
