I have tried to clean up the structure of the template in order to reflect the content more clearly. Please let me know any comments. nirvana201314:37, 16 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

I have placed this template on all articles featured on it (excluding Barack Obama; I tried but there was a problem and I was not able to place this template on that page). I am not sure if all articles listed here belong to this template. For example:
...but if you think that an article listed here does NOT belong to this navigation template and decide to remove it from the article then please REMOVE the link from the template or we will have a dead-end link.

Just to clarify, since you're maintaining such a good record, although included in the same edit (and edit summary) as several others, Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan was not removed from the Influenced group because his inclusion was not supported by his article, but because he was also included in the Associates group, which seems a better fit.

Randy Kryn How about we merge "influences" to "Philosophy" since these items helped in the development of his philosophy? We can remove "influenced" because this parameter will look incomplete unless we include over 200 names. Another reason is that nearly all listed on "Associates" are actually Gandhians. It will look repetitive. Aman Kumar Goel(Talk)04:52, 16 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
Not going into a long discussion now. "Philosophy" would mean Gandhi's philosophy, not things which influenced him, which is a good section. No need to repeat Associates with Influenced, no overlap needed. Randy Kryn (talk) 04:55, 16 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

A discussion may be appropriate as to how inclusive this template should be, especially as to Memorials and Legacy. I added one article to each of these sections, but then realized the template could easily expand beyond a useful and manageable size. Just entering "Mahatma Gandhi" into the Wikipedia search box returns pages, with at least the first 50 entries being actual articles with "Mahatma Gandhi" in the name. Comments?

A Wikipedia search for Mahatma+Gandhi+the produces about 2500 results. I think it is too much for a NAV template (lol). 2500 wlinks within a single navbox does NOT help a reader in reading and navigating topics related to Gandhi, and, also, it will not be transcluded properly. The scope of a navbox is to facilitate the navigation between articles "strictly" related to him or to one or more sub-topics (e.g.: "life", "family", and "legacy" OR "influences" and "influenced"...). It is possible to split it into multiple navigation templates, one for each sub-topic (or group of sub-topics), or to collapse all groups in the existing one by using {{Navigation with collapsible groups}}. I think it is appropriate to examine and evaluate all cases=(articles related to Gandhi) one by one. This way we can get an idea about that, and then decide what is the best thing to do. I think that we can use this space to provide and examine proposals about this. At the moment we are doing the opposite thing: to remove wikilinks that do NOT belong 100% to the subject (Gandhi). –pjoef (talk • contribs) 08:31, 14 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
