::Cue to the huge thing I wrote 3 years ago right at the top of this talk page: I still think that the "inspiration" should be a separate array. We could have a first array with the all the spirits of the series for the "history" data (series, origin game, artwork source), then a separate array for each spirit category with focus ont their "gameplay" data (type, stats, effects, ...), then a spirit battle array with all the battle data, and finally the inspiration array. Having an "inspiration" array outside of the battle one will also allow spirits without a battle to still have relevant inspiration bullet points for their category type, or effect (like how a JRPG priest could be a support spirit with a healing effect because that's what they do in their own game).

::::Yes I noticed the discussion at the top and that's why I posted this here, surprisingly the issue still hasn't improved until now.  However, since separating these would make the other universe page too large, it would be necessary to put the mental battles and inspiration on separate page.--[[User:Capstalker|Capstalker]] ([[User talk:Capstalker|talk]]) 10:25, February 12, 2024 (EST)
:::As time goes on the more I'm leaning towards something like that and moving "inspirations" over to something like <nowiki>[[List of spirits (Super Mario series)/Spirit trivia]]</nowiki>. It would be a simple solution that expands the scope with the only real downside being that the info is disconnected, but that effectively already happens on mobile. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 07:47, February 12, 2024 (EST)

::::I mean move spirit battles and inspiration together to other pages like <nowiki>[[List of Spirit Battles (Super Mario series)]]</nowiki>. Since 80% of inspiration is about spirit battles and not the spirits themselves, and spirit battles list also has image and type, so readers don't need to look at other lists.--[[User:Capstalker|Capstalker]] ([[User talk:Capstalker|talk]]) 09:17, February 12, 2024 (EST)

:::::Your solution to the gigantic inspiration stuff is to not do anything with it and just hide it? The idea of splitting just the inspiration is that we can make it more than just spirit battle trivia, unlike now where non-battle trivia is awkwardly grafted on. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 10:13, February 12, 2024 (EST)
