''Here's an idea: Instead of using one icon for KH, one for KHFM, and one for HD1.5, use a KHFMHD icon if it appears in the HD version, use the KHFM icon instead if it only appears in non-HD KHFM, and the KH icon if it only appears in non-FM KH. So basically, only use the icon of the most recent released version. (We'll need to add "HD" to the current icons, though.)''}} | ''Here's an idea: Instead of using one icon for KH, one for KHFM, and one for HD1.5, use a KHFMHD icon if it appears in the HD version, use the KHFM icon instead if it only appears in non-HD KHFM, and the KH icon if it only appears in non-FM KH.

{{KrytenKoro|Because the Final Mixes have a compilation nature, using the most recent icon will result in losing more specificity than if we use the original icon -- there's much more that was added by later releases than there is that was taken out. Also, the most recent icons tend to be pretty cluttered, with FMs and +s and HDs. As such, I feel that using the earliest icon will present the clearest list of icons while preserving as much information as possible. ''However'', that's not to say that I think merging the icons is the best option, so don't write me down as definitely voting for it over anything else that gets suggested.}} | {{KrytenKoro|Because the Final Mixes have a compilation nature, using the most recent icon will result in losing more specificity than if we use the original icon -- there's much more that was added by later releases than there is that was taken out.

I'm seconding the pop-up menu. As cluttered as it all may seem, getting rid of a few extra icons will not get rid of the pages they link-back to. As long as every game and its iteration has its own page, it will need a quick and simple link-back. This is a wiki. We're supposed to be informative. Trying to oversimplify it to the point where entire game entry pages go unnoticed is counterproductive, to say the least. So to prevent clutter, I say the pop-up menu is the way to go. --[[User:Webber22|Webber22]] ([[User talk:Webber22|talk]]) 16:06, 16 September 2015 (UTC) | |||
