Seriously, bravo on all the work you've done recently. It's been fantastic to see the developments you're making. I've had a couple of resources stewing on my computer for awhile, and since I've been extremely busy on a few other wikis, I thought I could compile them and hand them off to you instead. They might be of interest, they might be completely useless, who knows. The page can be found [[User:Trig_Jegman/Spare_Resources|here]]. I'll try to poke my head in a little more often to get stuff done, especially now that Inkipedia work is winding down. If there's anything I can do to help, feel free to ask.

I feel that splitting up the unit and character categories too much make take away from their usefulness. The page on [[Advance Wars]] already lists units (perhaps needs sortable for the type) and COs, so having categories give the same information seems redundant. Having the categories show units ''across'' games gives a different view than the pages. | |||
Your other todo's sound good. I had set up the {{t|AW Mission Infobox}} to replace the rest, I just haven't had the chance to update usage. | |||
{{t|EmbedVideo}} videos seem a bit big. Perhaps 300px would be more appropriate? Most have the option to full screen them once they're playing. | |||
I really like {{t|Plainlist}}. Many of the fields it's used for seem to always be lists, so it may be easier to integrate it into the infobox templates directly. | |||
What you did with the individual {{t|Tabs}} templates is really cool. I only put the |tabs parameter in because it was easy. If you feel there's a better way, do feel free. | |||
I feel infobox templates are the best place for automatic categorization rather than the navigation templates. You may use navigation templates on pages that aren't about the ''thing'' but you won't usually use an infobox anywhere else. However, I'm not sure the best way to accomplish this with some of the templates that apply to multiple games. | |||
I think it might be interesting to convert the CO/Unit lists to use [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:Cargo]] instead. That way it'll auto-generate as long as the infoboxes are properly filled in. If you think it's a good idea, I can look into setting it up. | |||
You can find me on discord (linked in the sidebar) if you'd like to chat about anything. [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|talk]]) 06:28, 26 June 2023 (UTC) | |||
