:::::The [[Curious family]]: We could theoretically sort all of the family members by the era in which they appear in. [[User:Auror Andrachome|Ѧüя◎ґ]] ([[User talk:Auror Andrachome|talk]]) 18:19, October 26, 2014 (UTC)
::::::What I'm not too certain about is how we are going sort families by game/era. It ''might'' work on large families spanning many games, like the [[Goth family]], but it won't work at all on smaller families spanning one or two games. The Curious family only appears in two games; ''The Sims 2'' and ''3'', meaning if we sort the family by game, we'd end up with two rather large sections, which may or may not be a good thing.
 
::::::IMO, we're better off sorting families by generation, as you can see [[User:EpicJoyBoy/Sandbox#Curious family navbox test|here]]. Sorting families by generation is much closer compared to what we have right now (such as [[:Template:Curious Family|this]] and [[:Template:Beaker Family|this]]) and doesn't look as awkward as sorting families by game.

{{od|::::::::}}How about families with unclear generation levels, such as the Landgraabs? Or families with unclear relations, such as the Crumplebottom sisters in Moonlight Falls? I don't think it's applicable to several cross-series families.

:In the case of the [[Landgraab family]], they should really be set by the era they appear in. [[User:Auror Andrachome|Ѧüя◎ґ]] ([[User talk:Auror Andrachome|talk]]) 08:45, December 6, 2014 (UTC)
 
==Closing==
This is a complex issue. The community supports keeping navboxes and standardizing their appearance, but as of yet there is no one agreed-upon standard. It may be best to move forward towards implementing a standard outside of a formal discussion, acting [[TSW:BOLD|boldly]] to implement the consensus which was set indicating a support for standardization. If necessary, the issue can be revisited in a new forum thread. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] • [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] • [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 05:02, January 11, 2015 (UTC)
