Organization navboxes
These are some organization navboxes I found that grew out of proportion and usefulness, mostly doing the same as their category counterparts. Winterz (talk) 01:22, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

This one is a perfect example of a navbox becoming too big and too futile.

- Much as I hate these, I wouldn't be willing to bin all of them until we finally get a bit further with splitting categories between canon and legends. However, as Winterz points out, these first three are way too massive and are just an eyesore at this point. A navbox is supposed to be a simple box to give other, similar links, but this is just overwhelming and not at all helpful. Tommy-Macaroni 10:22, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

- I do believe that navboxes can be very useful, particularly in illustrating category trees—a navbox can be far more convenient than a category with subcategories and sub-subcategories (example from Wikipedia). In this case, it's not very useful and just ugly and unwieldy. 1358 (Talk) 12:50, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

The naval version of pointless.

- This kind of navboxes could be reduced to a much smaller size.

Unlike the others, this one didn't grow big, but it's worse: speculative nature with this "official" and "unofficial" labels. Furthermore, it's useless. Counterpart: Category:Sith Empire organizations

- Eh, I don't think that's speculative, and it does the job of linking to other navboxes which the category doesn't do. But anyway, that category has to be sorted sooner or later, and this navbox is just delaying the inevitable. OOM 224 ༼༽talk༼༽ 07:16, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

- Yeah, if a navbox is equivalent to a single-continuity category, there is no reason for it to exist. Tommy-Macaroni 10:22, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
