This template needs improvement. Most lines each have only one item on them. It's mostly whitespace and is two screens high on my monitor. Is there a good reason to have all the overseas stuff on one template, instead of a separate template for each region/continent? - Hivebrain (talk) 17:51, 15 April 2017 (CDT)
- The lines usually only have on item, because unlike on the Japanese template there is no connection between things...Woudn't it help to at least have a fleshed out Template:EarlySega so that at least there is no whitespace going from 1945-1984 on the other templates? My reference for templates regarding just overseas and domestic, is how Sega divides them too. Also nowadays Sega Europe does PC stuff, and some studios like Relic Entertainment are in America...--Trippled (talk) 18:53, 15 April 2017 (CDT)
- I made a conscious decision to split by region to avoid huge templates like this, and reuse lines to make effective use of space.
- None of this was ideal because I woefully underestimated the amount of subsidiaries, but rarely is the solution to combine things -Black Squirrel (talk) 05:18, 16 April 2017 (CDT)
