[[MarioWiki:Navigation templates|Navigation templates]] list a bunch of related articles. Most templates pertain to a particular game (such as {{tem|SMB}}) and will list all the characters, items, etc. that appear in that game, although others will list all the specific types of a certain group of species, items, etc. (such as ({{tem|Koopas}} or {{tem|Mushrooms}}). Sometimes an unmade article is already on one of these templates in red, waiting to be added, sometimes you will have to edit the template to include it. Sometimes there is no navigation template yet for your subject or game. But if there ''is'' an appropriate template, add it - it has the same effect as linking, but even better. | [[MarioWiki:Navigation templates|Navigation templates]] list a bunch of related articles.
