Split SSB4 list
In order to better organize stages, I think we should split-up the SSB4 part of templates into Wii U and 3DS. Since as of now only the stages, that we know of, will be different between the Wii U and 3DS version so I will be using the Zelda universe template as an example:
| File:ZeldaSymbol.png The Legend of Zelda universe | |
|---|---|
| Characters | Link (SSB · SSBM · SSBB · SSB4) · Zelda (SSBM · SSBB) / Sheik (SSBM · SSBB) · Ganondorf (SSBM · SSBB) · Young Link (SSBM) · Toon Link (SSBB) |
| Side characters | Assist trophies: Tingle |
| Stages | SSB: Hyrule Castle SSBM: Great Bay · Temple · Adventure Mode: Underground Maze SSBB: Bridge of Eldin · Pirate Ship · Melee Stages: Temple SSB4: (Wii U) Skyloft
|
| Items | Heart Container SSBM: Bunny Hood |
| Trophies & Stickers | Trophies in Melee · Trophies in Brawl · Stickers in Brawl |
| Music | Music in Brawl |
As can be seen, the SSB4 part of the stage list splits into Wii U and 3DS. I think this is a better way to organize the stages as there will be different stages between the home console and handheld versions. What do you guys think about this? Unknown the Hedgehog 02:37, 3 August 2013 (EDT)
- Neutral for now: I'll support this if it's rare to see a stage in both games. DoctorPain99 02:38, 3 August 2013 (EDT)
The general idea is not bad, but I say we keep this on the backburner until we have more to go on. Toomai Glittershine

- It's true that this would be more useful when more stages are announced, but I was thinking it'd be implemented early so that a mass edit of all of the templates wouldn't have to take place later. Just my thoughts. Unknown the Hedgehog 12:28, 3 August 2013 (EDT)
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. Unknown the Hedgehog 10:34, 25 April 2014 (EDT)
- 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. Toomai Glittershine The Hammer 11:30, 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. Toomai Glittershine The Keymaster 00:32, 26 April 2014 (EDT)
- After the failure of the split navboxes, let's just leave them as they are now. SeanWheeler (talk) 00:37, 26 April 2014 (EDT)
