Dan - My friends are my power! — 18:35, April 5, 2010 (UTC) I've noticed that the "See also" sections on the following pages have gotten completely out of hand: Red Nocturne Blue Rhapsody Yellow Opera Green Requiem Black Ballade Silver Rock Emerald Blues Crimson Jazz Spring Metal Scarlet Tango Grey Caprice Striped Aria Sapphire Elegy Pink Concerto Turquoise March Emerald Serenade I'm wondering whether it would be a good idea to create a navigational template for this family of Heartless, perhaps similar to this one.

Nitrous X Talk! — Then I shall make you see...That your hopes are nothing. Nothing but a mere illusion! Don't I even warrant a hello, Lexaeus? I think that's a really good idea. There's so many of them, it'd really help. Or at least remodel the Heartless template to have a sub-heading for this family.

LapisScarab - You accept darkness, yet choose to live in the light. So why is it that you loathe us who teeter on the edge of nothing? We who were turned away by both light and dark - never given a choice? TALK - That may be... however, what other choice might we have had? I'm liking NitrousX's idea a bit more, since it'll save more space and we won't need to make a whole new template.

Smart idea. I can help if needed. User:ZexionTheGamer/Signature

BebopKate - This one is Zazzles...because he's Zazzy! TALK - Here's your cat...and here's your $20...21:13, April 6, 2010 (UTC) I'm all for getting rid of giant "See Also" sections. Either idea is just fine with me; go for it!

Dan - My friends are my power! — 21:17, April 6, 2010 (UTC) Okay, cool. I'll start work on a navigational template, and we'll see how it looks. But there's one thing that concerns me; what exactly do we call this family of Heartless?

I've made an example of the template here:

Not too sure if we're going to go with "Magic Heartless", but how does it look? Dan - ^{Don't Blink! ♫} 21:58, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

Glad to see the bloody "see also" sections gone. The template sounds good to me; nice job, Dan. Xion4ever Who am I? — 23:30, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

KrytenKoro - "Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life." TALK - I am absolutely against this. We already had a category for this that ended up having people throw in any Heartless that could use magic, and the name is uncanon. These Heartless are also not the only ones to have multiple variations - in fact, most Heartless have at least one variation, with others going up to six or so. We also have long see also sections for item articles; for example, Fire Ring. The directory templates end up taking just as much room, and are more difficult to correct or add to if there are problems. Furthermore, when we have multiple directory templates on a page, it looks even messier. Look at Kingdom Key. If the length of the section is an issue, then a much simpler solution would be to simply split it into multiple columns. On an aesthetic note, the directory as designed above is incredibly difficult to read.
