The forums are broken so I'll post this here and repost it when the forums unbreak.

Re: this

I made Template:Navbox games because 1: the "games" section on Template:Navbox OWI is unorganized and 2: "Articles related to OWI" is kind of a broad category and can be broken up.

Organizing the "games" section on Navbox OWI is an easy and (I hope) uncontroversial fix, but that still leaves the question of whether or not game articles should have links to Sherry McKenna and vice versa.

I'm leaning slightly towards "no". I think it's important to make a distinction between in-universe (e.g. Abe) and real-world articles (e.g. Lorne Lanning). But games kind of occupy the space in-between. They're technically real-world (Abe's Oddysee for the PSX doesn't exist on Oddworld), but their contents are very much in-universe (the plot of Abe's Oddysee does exist on Oddworld).

Does that make games different enough from people and development studios?
