Are the navigation templates really need? I mean we have categories, which contains all the information that the navigation boxes do. I see the point in some of them (such as Series navigation template and also the Aliens and Enemies of series X), but the other are not really needed if we have the categories. There have been comments in the past about how much space they take up at the bottom of the page, so should we get rid of them, and use categories instead or keep them?

- See, it's funny. Everyone seems to have different ideas about what's "necessary" with these things, but everyone equally thinks some of them are completely unnecessary. Personally, I don't see the point at all to the aliens and enemies templates, cause that's not about one single thing, and it is, in any case, quite subjective. People openly ridiculed my creation of {{hospitals}}, but I think that's quite helpful, and does something more than what a simple category could do. So who knows what, really, to do with them.
- The one thing I do think they need, visually, is to be placed under infoboxes at the same width of the infobox. If you have to go all the way to the bottom of the page to get navigation, maybe they're not as helpful as they could be. Plus, they look quite smart as a sort of adjunct to the infobox.

- What I've tired is putting a navigation box ({{Dalek stories}}) inside a infobox. It does not work, due 'show/hide' box not working. However if you put a ':' before it, it works, but the box is crushed up, especially the writing at the top of the infobox. I'm not sure if we could add another item to the Infobox called 'navigation templates' and see if that works? Mini-mitch 19:54, July 17, 2010 (UTC)
