Hi @Ilyagredasov, I would like to suggest using this design instead of the current one:

I think it improves readability and keeps things more consistent with the standard main page layout. - - R-K (talk) 14:54, 28 February 2026 (UTC)

@R-K, no problem, I'm a bit busy now (either I'll edit accordingly later when I'm free, or you can actually just change edit these templates right now if you want). I've created these templates to include recommended or partially recommended (marked as "~" in the corresponding console articles) emulators for consoles which offer at least some variability options in emulators (so I didn't create, for example, a template for GameCube since there's actually nothing except Dolphin for now, lazuli is too early in development, and creating a table for a console with only a single worthy emulator is meh, but I did want to create a few more tables later, for PS1, Saturn and N64, just didn't have time back then). The color schemes were taken from Google, to be fair (like I had searched for "Nintendo red logo color" and then copypasted the color values I've found online into the templates) :D Ilyagredasov (talk) 18:02, 28 February 2026 (UTC)
Hi @Ilyagredasov, thanks for the clarification.
I understand the reasoning behind the template structure, especially regarding consoles with limited emulator options. That makes sense.
My suggestion was mainly about readability and visual consistency. The softer color scheme aligns more closely with the main page style and feels less visually aggressive, especially when multiple templates are stacked on the same page and mostly because of the href links blue color and the contrast ratio of the background color behind like the blue of the link "Nintendo 3DS emulators"and the red background.
Let me know what you think. - - R-K (talk) 14:35, 2 March 2026 (UTC)
@R-K, yeah, I agree, softer colors look better for an eye. Ilyagredasov (talk) 21:33, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
Please check the new edits about the Navbox template I made it easier to automatically choose darker shades / lighter shades from the custom color value, instead of changing the whole templates. - - R-K (talk) 01:16, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
Auto-mixing colors? Nice. Will revert my edits to navboxes again, then. Ilyagredasov (talk) 01:23, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
Big thanks, I really appreciate your time and help. - - R-K (talk) 01:32, 5 March 2026 (UTC)

A note about Lazuli and Iris

[edit source]

Hi,

Just to clarify, the capitalization comes directly from the official GitHub repositories for Lazuli and Iris. I followed the spelling used by the project maintainers. [1][2][3]

Unless there is a source that explicitly specifies lowercase, I do not think it causes any issue. - - R-K (talk) 23:42, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

@R-K Oh, OK, thank you, didn't know that. I'll capitalize past releases. Ilyagredasov (talk) 23:50, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

Create a bot

[edit source]

Hey. I saw your massive edit list on my watchlist. I'm not mad at you or anything but, I've been thinking. You should create a bot on this wiki. It would be less tiresome than massively edit every page manually.

Would have done so had I not been lazily editing this Wiki exclusively on my mobile phone (my PC has no Internet access, it's only used for emulation) as a way to kill some time when I have nothing else to do, so coding a bot and getting the flag is out of question :D Ilyagredasov (talk) 12:30, 30 July 2026 (UTC)
