Comment I created these to prevent persistent vandalism by obscurity once and for all, as it was clear that the peruvian vandals simply did not know how to access and edit templates. After the creation of these templates, the vandalism to the knockout stage brackets stopped. If these are deleted, how can it be assured that vandalism to the knockout stage brackets won't happen again? -boldblazer 19:35, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A fair point.

WP:NENAN. Completely unrelated games other that having a version of some variety on the system. Unlikely to navigate between, games by platform navboxes don't exist for a reason. This is list material, not navbox, and there already exists the more-complete List of Atari Lynx games (which is linked in the navbox). oknazevad (talk) 02:49, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Navboxes are supposed to be WP:BIDIRECTIONAL meaning the navbox should be at the bottom of the article for each game mentioned in the navbox. The problem is, Lynx games are inferior, lesser known ports of otherwise popular games, so you would need to list this navbox for each game based on the obscure fact that they had a Lynx port. We don't need to navigate around that. However, do not nominate Template:Virtual Boy because they are mostly (maybe all) system exclusives. TarkusABtalk/contrib 05:16, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Honestly, that should go for the same reason. Games-by-platforms are list material, not navbox material, regardless of the number of games, or their exclusivity status. oknazevad (talk) 16:00, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are not many Lynx games, this keeps them altogether, when someone gets to the bottom of each article, they can click the next one and so on. It's a perfectly valid navbox. I had it set-up different originally, this current design is someone else's. WP:NENAN really? The Navbox originally had every known Atari Lynx game on it and was complete. @TarkusAB: You can't port a game to an Atari Lynx, they had to be recoded differently due to certain limitations, no Lynx game is a true port. And what on earth has "Lynx games are inferior" got to do with deleting a template? Govvy (talk) 10:55, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm familiar with how ports work. Replace with "version" if you want. Regarding your second comment, replace "inferior" with "lesser known" if that helps. TarkusABtalk/contrib 21:35, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Additional comment: Poor choice on my part not to link to the WP:CLNT guideline, which is the main guideline regarding whether or not to have a category, list, and/or navbox for a group of articles. This definitely is suitable for a category and for a list, but I think it doesn't meet point five of the listed criteria for considering a navbox, "If not for the navigation template, an editor would be inclined to link many of these articles in the See also sections of the articles." I don't see how one can justify including most of these articles in a see also section on any one of these articles, so wouldn't be navbox appropriate. oknazevad (talk) 17:34, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
WP:DOESNTHURT is not a reason to keep. Just because there are only so many Lynx games doesn't mean they need a navbox. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 15:33, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not a reason either for deletion, not one delete vote has given a pure reason, in fact. It's just destroying game navigation. Again, I still don't understand. And the primary concern is an argument of too many navboxes, when there is only one Lynx nav box on most Atari Lynx pages. It's not a saturation, again. The deletionists have floored arguments. Govvy (talk) 19:13, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Again, please read the part at WP:CLNT where it says navboxes should only be used where it's likely that most of these links would be in the see also section of there were no navbox. It is exceedingly unlikely that most of these games, many of which only mention the Lynx version in passing, would include links to many other Lynx games. In fact, I'd say that's terrible linking and only a trivial connection.
Again, there's a reason why we don't have navboxes listing all the games on a platform – other than being on the same platform the games have nothing to do with each other.
Navboxes have a much higher threshold of connectedness than lists or categories. Games by series are natural. Games by developer and/or publisher are usually pretty connected (though not always). Games by platform are not. oknazevad (talk) 19:29, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm neutral, but I believe the argument is basically that navigation templates are meant to help aid the reader in reading about similar related topics, and that merely being released on the same platform is not really a strong enough of a tie for all these otherwise unrelated video games.

These articles are barely related, they're just games released on the same platform. Imagine having navboxes for every "games on platform x". There's already a list article and a category, deleting this navbox is not "destroying navigation". soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 19:37, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"barely related"?? Really, the first five games are all Epyx, a lot of the games are related to Atari, the construct of the template is to help easy the reader when they get to the end of any Atari Lynx game article. They can then navigate per year and choose a different game. The relationship is there whether you want to deny it or not. Did you know most readers of wikipedia don't use categories. So removing this template, the reader would then have to search for List of Atari Lynx games, and use that. That is the redundancy effect. So if you remove the template, it's not helping anyone.

  • Also to note; of the 73 games, 63 Are Published by Atari Corp, The template I wanted to set out was Atari Lynx games published by Atari Corp. However this current template doesn't show that now or does it? Still... I have yet to see one decent valid delete reason. The first six games listed on the template are all Epyx, Atari Corp.

And Nintendo published games for their own platform too. That would be "x publisher on x platform", also not a sensible navbox. We don't have navboxes for "games on x platform" regardless, because there's no need for it. You're just saying WP:DOESNTHURT and WP:ITSHELPFUL. The only reason why this navbox has been around so long is because of its relatively small size. We don't have {{PlayStation 2 games}} either. Listicles and categories are sufficient. And please stop saying you don't see a "valid delete reason" because you don't want to see your work be deleted or call people "deletionists" because they rather see this go. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 04:18, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You can't have a navbox on the other systems because of the extensive library, Atari Lynx is one of the few viable ones. You're just being ridiculous now. Those policies you posted above mean nothing here. Govvy (talk) 12:11, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Please, be mindful of your tone. You are an experienced editor, I shouldn't have to tell you that calling me "ridiculous" borders on a personal attack. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 12:55, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing wrong with my tone, I am not f'ing or blinding, hold your horses. There is nothing wrong with calling someone ridiculous. Wikipedia doesn't know what civility is anymore. Agitated tones is expressive, wikipedia has no right to destroy expressions no matter what people make of WP:CIVIL. Govvy (talk) 13:42, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I again we disagree. You are calling me ridiculous. Saying "this is ridiculous" or "this is getting ridiculous" wouldn't be directed at me. "This is stupid" or "you are stupid", "this is shit" or "you are shit" isn't the same thing either. But feel free not to listen to me and resort to personal attacks so you can express yourself. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 13:59, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Govvy, no, it is not okay to call a person ridiculous. We have an explicit and separate policy to WP:CIV on the point. Izno (talk) 19:57, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
