	Is there a reason that "gemshop" is not a category? In Zul Logoth, Praeteria's Gems and Jewels is the gemshop; Praeteria buys gems and resells jewelry, accessories, magic items, imbeddables, etc. Hervina's Baubles is the jewelry shop; it sells standardized jewelry. But there doesn't seem to be any way of creating a page for Praeteria's without misidentifying the shop type or breaking the template.

			:My assumption is that the gemshop is not included for the same reason that the pawnshop and furrier is not included. The template states: "This template should be used to add NPC shops that are permanent in towns using the ORDER system." Typically the gemshop, furrier, and pawnshop do not use the {{boldmono\|ORDER}} system. If Praeteria uses the ORDER system, I believe it would be classified as a jewelry store that also acts as a [[gemshop]]. I have brought your concern to the attention of the wiki manager.
