To summarise what was said in the Discord, we came to the conclusion that the page should not be split into multiple pages. The arguments against it were that it is the 2nd largest page on the wiki, and after the [[Event]] page is split, it'll be the largest. The reason why we don't want massive pages on the wiki is due to them being hard to navigate, but since this page is literally just several tables, it's quite easy to navigate and load, unlike [[Event]].

::The Discord server is a more convenient place for small discussions, but it can sometimes be difficult to tell what's a small discussion that can be done on the server, and what's a larger discussion that should be done on the wiki. I started a discussion about splitting the article in the server, but this talk page would have been a better place for that. In the discussion on the server I said that the article didn't really need to be split, as the table structure makes it easier to read than a long article filled with paragraphs. Loading times also aren't as much of an issue because the page doesn't have many images. But now that you've made a mockup of what a split article would look like, I think it might be a good idea. If we split the article, I think using subpages would be a good way to name the comic list pages, such as "[[Pikmin comic/Issues 1 to 100]]" (the name used in the mockup), but there could be other ways to name the articles. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 19:36, June 22, 2024 (EDT)
