Rename
@Bro3256 Perhaps this template can be renamed to "Famicom" since most of the releases originated from there before making its way to the NES. Super Mario RPG (talk) 15:19, June 1, 2024 (EDT)
- To be honest if this were to be renamed than I would suggest something like "FC/NES" to reflect the visible name displayed on the template. --Bro3256 (talk) 18:31, December 5, 2024 (EST)
Rename the NES Template

The discussion above is short enough that I wouldn't like to just repeat it, but we have three options:
- Move to {{FC}}, since the Famicom predates the NES by two years. It's worth noting that the console's full name is Family Computer, hence the abbreviation I chose.
- Move to {{FC/NES}}, since it better reflects the actual name at the header of the template. If, for whatever reason, the use of the slash is not allowed in a template, then {{FCNES}} would be used instead.
- Keep it as {{NES}}. No further change.

Move to {{FC}}
- Super Mario RPG (talk) Secondary choice.
Move to {{FC/NES}}
- LadySophie17 (talk) My preferred option.
- Super Mario RPG (talk) Long overdue.
- Sparks (talk) They're essentially the same thing, so having both names would definitely help.
- Rykitu (talk) Per all.
- EvieMaybe (talk) per proposal
- ThePowerPlayer (talk) Per all.
Keep it as {{NES}}
- Shy Guy on Wheels (talk) if it ain't broke don't fix it.
- Starluxe (talk) I think this change harms more than it helps...
- Waluigi Time (talk) Per SGoW, I don't see a need for the change.
- Arend (talk) Current name for nav template is fine, since this is an English Wiki, and {{FC}} could work just fine as a redirect. I'm also not really fond of the {{FC/NES}} or {{FCNES}} option, since that would mean we might have to treat other nav templates the same way, such as moving {{SMB2}} to {{SMB2/SMUSA}} / {{SMB2SMUSA}}, or {{SMB}} to {{SMB/SMB2/SMBTLL}} / {{SMBSMB2SMBTLL}}, or even {{SM3DW}} to {{SMB3DW/SM3DW+BF}} / {{SMB3DWSM3DWBF}}. It gets too convoluted and confusing.
Comments (Renaming the template)
The template header has since been changed to include the Famicom Disk System. Which means that option 2 (rename to {{FC/NES}} is no longer accurate. I don't know what to do now. I could update option 2 to include the Disk System (probably as {{FC/FCDS/NES}}, but I think I would prefer to simply not include the Disk System in the header or name. Opinions? — Lady Sophie

- I changed it back, I should wait until this proposal ends to do something like that. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 13:24, December 22, 2024 (EST)
@Starluxe what harm do you think this proposal would cause? — Lady Sophie (T|C) 09:17, December 22, 2024 (EST)
