I would like to bring this topic back into discussion as we have more to go on than we did before. Also, as a side comment, I personally believe the templates looked better organized when we separated the stages, items, etc. into their respective Smash Bros. games rather than what it is now with them all running together. That's just me.

:As has been attempted not long ago, we have to pick one between "ignore game disctinctions", "have bloated and lopsided rows", and "be unable to link to everything:". Given that this is a template primarily about the universe itself, I think ignoring game distinctions is the best idea.

::I believe that if this would happen, the 3DS row should at least line up with the Wii U one. Just my opinion. [[User:Red|Red]] [[User talk:Red|(<small>Talk</small>)]] [[File:RedSig.png|12px|link=Special:Contributions/Red|Special:Contributions/Red]] 11:32, 25 April 2014 (EDT)

How about something like the above template? I only changed the assist trophy and stages part as I'm not quite sure how the items would be handled. But this way, everything is still organized, and there's no lopsided columns or anything. Basically, this is exactly like how it is now, but with games inserted in with parentheses around the stages.

:That's not bad, though I think the extra brackets are a bit pointless, and yeah we don't really want to have duplicated item links. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Keymaster 00:32, 26 April 2014 (EDT)
:After the failure of the split navboxes, let's just leave them as they are now. [[User:SeanWheeler|SeanWheeler]] ([[User talk:SeanWheeler|talk]]) 00:37, 26 April 2014 (EDT)
:Well, I don't think that means we should stop finding a way that works with everything still organized. Also, Toomai, I changed the above template without parentheses to see how it looks.

::I think the navboxes are fine the way they are. And Toomai admitted that the more he thinks about it, the more unnecessary to split between games. The game sort was too gimmicky and took up too much space. The column split was to counter the previously template that had page breaks. I think the best template should either be alphabetized or in [[User:Toomai/On the order of things|Toomai's order]] which does sort by universe (which we don't need because it's one universe on each template), games (without having to mark them), and availability. And then alphabetize. For example, [[Tingle]] should come before [[Skull Kid]] and [[Midna]] because he was in Brawl while the latter two were from SSB4. Under stages, [[Hyrule Castle]] comes first as it's the 64 stage, then [[Temple]] as it was introduced in Melee and returned in Brawl, then [[Great Bay]] as it's a Melee exclusive, then [[Bridge of Eldin]] as the starter from Brawl, [[Pirate Ship]], the unlockable from Brawl, [[Skyloft]] the Wii U stage, [[Gerudo Valley]] the 3DS stage that starts with G, and finally [[Spirit Train]], the 3DS stage that starts with S.

:::Perhaps. Idk, it's just my opinion that the boxes look nicer when they are organized per game. Perhaps we could get more opinions of the method presented above. There's no columns, gimmicks, etc. Admittedly, I still don't know how the items and recurring Assist Trophies would be organized (or even if they'd be organized by game?). But if other people don't like that method, I can't think of any other way to organize them by game, and will lean towards Toomai's Order.
