:Well, [[Template:Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time_Nav]] was on every page of the walkthrough which was to be honest incredibly ugly looking and very jumbled. compare [http://strategywiki.net/w/index.php?title=Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time/The_Beginning&oldid=24294 the one with the ZOotNav] to the one with [http://strategywiki.net/w/index.php?title=Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time/The_Beginning&direction=next&oldid=24294 the walkthrough nav] I created. The edit (your edit) that added the other template said "new sidebar navigation" but all I see when I look at it is a massive bulleted/numbered list above what is useful information. If it is meant to provide a well designed sidebar nav then that's great but it is not what I see and probably not what most users would see (using up to date Firefox). So I created that walkthrough nav. I'm not sure how your sidebar nav was supposed to work but I don't see how having an organized and yet condensed nav providing all the links a person looking for a walkthrough would need is jumbled. I based the concept off of the FF7 guide at IGN (you might need insider to view it). It's very easy to navigate and looks very nice. -- [[User:Mason11987|Mason11987]] <sup>([[User talk:Mason11987|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Mason11987|Contributions]])</sup> 19:08, 29 May 2006 (PDT) | :Well, [[Template:Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time_Nav]] was on every page of the walkthrough which was to be honest incredibly ugly looking and very jumbled. compare [http://strategywiki.net/w/index.php?title=Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time/The_Beginning&oldid=24294 the one with the ZOotNav] to the one with [http://strategywiki.net/w/index.php?title=Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time/The_Beginning&direction=next&oldid=24294 the walkthrough nav] I created.

::Wait, are you using Monobook or something? This at the right is what it looks like in BlueCloud (as opposed to [http://strategywiki.net/w/index.php?title=%20Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time/Ocarina_Songs&useskin=monobook like this in Monobook]). Currently there are no includes for Monobook so I can't patch it. If you ''are'' using BlueCloud you need to hard-refresh [[MediaWiki:BlueCloud.css]] and [[MediaWiki:BlueCloud.js]].

:: Well that's cool, I like that, it just didn't show up anywhere for me because I am using monobook. Couldn't you edit the common.css as it is edited [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css on wikipedia], or does it need js too? I realize blue cloud is the default, but the majority of wiki users are most familiar with monobook (since it is the default on wikipedia), and implementing something that looks horrible on monobook just because it looks good on the default here doesn't seem like a good option, you know? Until it can be worked out to work on most skins (if not all), I think an alternative would be better, don't you? Not like we'll delete the other zelda nav, but use something compatible with all until we get something better that's compatible with all. -- [[User:Mason11987|Mason11987]] <sup>([[User talk:Mason11987|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Mason11987|Contributions]])</sup> 12:08, 30 May 2006 (PDT) | :: Well that's cool, I like that, it just didn't show up anywhere for me because I am using monobook.
