Reviewing edit histories recently I have seen that there is a bit of division among users as to what constitutes Notable Loot. Perhaps this is as good a time as any to form a consensus as to what is to be considered notable to be written into article policies. One thing I see the most of is debate over skill magazines. My personal take is that I wouldn't mind seeing them in the sections if they were placed in the area, but things such as 'It may be possible to find X magazine in X mailbox at this location.' I wouldn't. Perhaps weapons placed in the environment I wouldn't mind. Just nothing that spawns randomly.

We agree that items such as random magazines and other low value items don't constitute "notable loot". There could be some variance allowed when the item is rare in the area where it is found, such as jalapeno peppers in Zion, (there are only 1 or 2 in the entire DLC, their lack is important to the hardcore player as making gecko kabobs require them), or important for a quest.[[User:DarthOrc|DarthOrc]] 05:22, November 14, 2011 (UTC)DarthOrc
