Split Template:Mariogames into several, more practical navboxes.
Have you fellas take a look at that thing? it's humongous! it's clogged with so many links it's tiresome to even look at it. Now, if this wiki was called Video Game Wiki, it'd make perfect sense to have this colossal navbox. I find it more appropriate to have several navboxes each focused on a game series rather than having them all together in an oversaturated box. For instance, I suggest we create a navbox that solely focuses on games from the main Super Mario series, another one for the Mario vs. Donkey Kong games, one for the Mario RPG games, one for the Mario Kart series, one for the Mario Party series and so on. How it will be handled needs to be settled, but first, a huge thing like this shouldn't be here, it's very redundant to have a navbox like that on the Mario Wiki.

Support

 * 1) - Several distinctive navboxes seems more practical than the colossal thing we already have.
 * 2) We have so many general franchise pages, such as Super Mario (series), Mario Party (series), etc., so why not split them? Also, we should apply this to, , and any other related templates I may have missed.

Oppose

 * 1) Per all the reasons why they were merged this way in the first place. The whole reason why we don't split the template at all is to make navigation easier, not more difficult, for other users; size should be no excuse. Additionally, you fail to indicate where to draw the line for splitting. Even if we split it by genre (Super Mario, Mario Kart, Mario Party, RPGs, etc.), it would result in mini-navigational templates that would be much smaller in comparison to other navigational templates. Again, there's a reason why we keep the template's genres merged together in the first place.
 * 2) Per all.
 * 3) Per all.
 * 4) Per all.
 * 5)  Per Toadette the Achiever.
 * 6) Per TtA.
 * 7) Per all.
