Forum:Sims series navbox redesign

Discussion
I think it's pretty obvious that the Sims series navbox is pretty large and quite overwhelming. Personally I find it quite difficult to spot the link I'm looking for, so I'm proposing a redesign to help make it clearer and more navigable. I've made a prototype on my sandbox. The main goal was to condense as much as possible without actually removing links and to give clearer focus to the games that were released in each "era", so to speak.
 * First of all, the navbox is collapsed by default. What we could do is make relevant groups uncollapsed on appropriate articles, e.g. The Sims section would be automatically expanded on all the articles under that grouping, but the other groups would remain collapsed.
 * Removed some redundant text like having each base game listed twice and "online games" since they're all in one group at the bottom anyway.
 * I moved the compilation links, they no longer take up a whole row since it's just plain unnecessary.
 * I also merged all the spin-offs into one section and then further into subgroups, since the Stories and Medieval offshoots don't really need to take up several rows for themselves. I think it looks much cleaner now.
 * I've also added different colours to help distinguish each section, kind of like we already have on the patch navbox. Except, I didn't want to use random rainbow colours, instead these ones are sourced directly from the dominant colours on the logos for each game so they are representative of these games. Having a uniform colour doesn't work too well on a navbox this large IMO.

Let me know what you think. --Dorsal Axe (talk) 22:55, March 1, 2015 (UTC)
