Add tours parameter and prohibit use of cups for Mario Kart Tour appearances

Template:SettledTPP Template:ProposalOutcome I've noticed the courses that have appeared multiple times in Mario Kart Tour list all of the cups they've appeared in in this infobox. The problem with this, though, is that this list becomes flooded because of their recurring nature. The cup they appear in changes in every tour, and I think listing every cup is unnecessary because eventually every recurring course is bound to appear in almost every (if not all) cup(s) at least once at one point throughout the game's life. (And that's 40 cups and growing.) As a solution, we should add a "tours=" parameter since that would be more significant than the cups they appear in, but I propose that Mario Kart Tour appearances should only use this parameter and that "cups=" be used only for every other Mario Kart game.

Add parameter but use both cups and tours

I feel like excluding MKT Cups from the Cups parameter can be interpreted as wiki saying that MKT Cups are less important than Cups in other Mario Kart games. Is the wiki allowed to make that kind of judgement? Salmancer (talk) 11:41, August 12, 2020 (EDT)

It's not quite that they're "less important", but MKT is the first game in the Mario Kart series where a single course can appear in multiple cups, and the cups that do exist are constantly shifting their courses. This proposal is just trying to avoid every course in MKT having an excessively long and constantly expanding laundry list of cups in a course's infobox. --Waluigi's head icon in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
