Reason?

It seems weird to shove away part of an article's information to a template. It's annoying for edits and doesn't seem to give many benefits. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Yeah, this strategy of dealing with charts was never formally approved, afaik. It's also done with {{MarioKart7Parts}} and {{MarioKart8Parts}} - looks like some guy just did it and no one complained. I guess it makes a bit more sense to outsource the eye-crossing stat charts, but this character chart is definitely getting excessive, and frankly, the MK charts don't need to be split anyway - and like you said, in all cases, it does add one more step to get to the editing part (plus it doesn't work well with checking refs). Perhaps it'd be a good idea to make a Proposal (a regular one, not a TPP) to establish once and for all whether this sort of thing is a good idea or a bad one? - Walkazo 22:26, 6 December 2015 (EST)
