== Not a Banner but Should be Something Better ==
The current form this template is taking just breaks consistency and '''will cause breaks if one misinformed editor edits on one page because it will affect all other pages that use the template as well!''' Seems like the template was created haphazardly as a Band-Aid approach to fix a '''symptom''' of a bigger underlying problem and not the problem itself. Suddenly orders are passed without understanding what kind of damage the template can do and no standardizing. I was aiming to fix consistency overall while still maintaining flow of the article so that way there is a logical data structure. I have created [[Template:WidescreenGCNTag]] to further my experimentations. --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 11:03, 8 November 2015 (CET)

: Wait, what? The current form is WAAAAAAY better than anything else you have brought, it '''does''' provide consistency (since all GC games with native 16:9 support will have the same section title and text and as bonus categorize the page automatically without additional user input), doesn't put an ugly ad-like banner at top of the page neither in the infobox and fits perfectly well in the new Emulation Info section. - [[User:Jhonn|Jhonn]] ([[User talk:Jhonn|talk]])

::OK, using <code><nowiki>=== 16:9 ===</nowiki></code> in a template is just asking for breaks. Pages already use <code><nowiki>== Stuff == === Stuff ===</nowiki></code> and should remain that way to remain consistent. Emulation information on [[F-Zero GX]] is ugly and pushes problems down the list, which problems are more vital than emulation information.
::I get that banners may be ugly where they are located but at least the information is where it should go because an infobox is about game information and features as 16:9 is a feature while the power-sliding glitch and custom cars glitch are not features. --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 21:01, 8 November 2015 (CET)
