Time to raise some questions:
  1. Should all the FFXIII games have different templates, or should they all have an uber one under the tag "Fabula Nova Crystallis"?
  2. What could their colour schemes be?

Alright, that's only two, but you know.

I don't hope that Agito will be that big, but I think that at least FFXIII should have its own template.

I recon they can have different templates. Versus = Blue Agito = Orangy Yellow?
Also this will probably be my last edit before my wikibreak starts, so see ya later, those who care!

They should have different templates, one would be too large. The colour schemes follow the logo, so that seems fine as well.

Have fun and take care SCM!

The FFVII compilation goes under one template. Much to my dissatisfaction. This is because most of it is recurring elements, which would require multiple templates on some pages. It's the same world dammit. Many people seem to think FFX-2 is in the main-series... it isn't. Then why does it deserve its own template when FFVII's and FFIV's share one? Crystal Chronicles is seperated; I know nothing of these games. As does Ivalice. Quite rightly really, they are set in different time periods.

How about we make an FFXIII compilation template which includes all locations in that world, divides the characters into each game... Basically, puts the recurring element under one field, and the areas which change from game to game under different ones. As well as the compilation template for things appearing in more than one thing in the compilation; game-individual templates which refer only to that one game; only its featured locations, only its featured characters; only its featured related pages.

Compilation template for things in more than one game (though it will link to pages which don't carry the template it self) and game templates for things that affect only one of the games. Why not?

The Compilation and The After share the same characters and a similar time period. I was under the impression that FFXIII and Versus have a similar status to the Ivalice games, although I could be wrong. My instinct would be to leave as is, until we have further information about the game. It's too soon to make a decision.

Maybe it does... but even then, FFX-2's and FFX's templates should be merged for the same reason FFVII's and FFIV's are. Different subject, I know. Meh.

I myself would have presumed it to be like Ivalice, but then I still think there'll be recurring locations, not in need of every FFXIII related template to be placed at the bottom. I don'no'.

Each game title should have its own navigation template, with sections on the characters, location, terms, related soundtrack, related categories. In a series, the navigation template should list those elements are that recurring within the series as per the Ivalice template.

I think I did raise the question on whether elements of the VII Compilation should be listed on the Compilation template instead of the VII template, but I don't recall where I wrote it. Anyone can help find this discussion?

Meh, I made an Agito template in my sandbox for anyone who gives a damn.

The template is to be removed from any pages using it since it doesn't serve any navigational purpose as of yet. Sensibly, the game doesn't have any substantial information that can warrant separate articles.... yet. 'Course, the template will be kept and will be later expanded for when more information game comes out later, probably after the upcoming TGS :)

For the future, guys, please don't make Navigational Templates until you actually have something to navigate to.

You know the "v e d" thing in the top corner? Well, they link to the wrong place, and I have no idea how to fix it.
