Guild Wars 1 Logo?[edit]

Should the Guild Wars 1 logo be added alongside its link? Would help point it out a bit more, imo. That said, File:Gwwlogo.png is much larger than the others visually at 28px. ~ Fishrock (talk) 21:21, 25 August 2017 (UTC)

The size shouldn't be a big problem, we would just make it smaller with some margins to align the links. This being said, I don't want to put File:Gwwlogo.png there, as it isn't actually the logo of the game, it just kind of happened to be the logo of the GW1 wiki – this is the actual logo of GW1. And while this wiki doesn't have that image available, I tried it out by editing the local code and it just seems too tiny, while anything bigger than that would end up overshadowing the GW2 releases. In the end I went with no image, but I wouldn't be too opposed to the actual GW1 logo. Just not the wiki logo, please... User Noxx Sig.png 22:40, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
Perhaps we could use just the GW1 logo with alt text? I'm not 100% sure what the conventions around that are. ~ Fishrock (talk) 18:29, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
I managed to find the GW1 logo on this wiki as well and I tried adding it into the nav, is it better like this? I personally don't think it's really that necessary there, but I don't mind it too much either. User Noxx Sig.png 18:09, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
Oh nice. I personally think it is a bit more clear and visually pleasing, but I'm not super partial about it either. ~ Fishrock (talk) 19:53, 2 September 2017 (UTC)

Living World seasons[edit]

Should the living world seasons be added? Since they expanded the world and story? They are basically non-retailed expansions. Even cost gems to buy. Fright01 × 18:53, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Living World seasons aren't singular products, but rather series of individual updates which are already listed on the linked page Release. At most, I'd be willing to add a link to Living World (although I don't really think it's necessary), but listing individual seasons is way beyond the scope of this nav. Those pages mostly only cover the characters and story, and as such having them interlinked in the {{Story summaries nav}} makes much more sense anyway.

Name[edit]

Just curious, since the original game is linked in the template, the text at the top of the template "Guild Wars 2 franchise" is kind of wrong, since wouldn't it be the Guild Wars franchise as that was the original game, no? Perhaps bump Guild Wars to it's on line and add "related" similar to Template:Tokens nav and change the text at the top to just "Guild Wars 2"? - Doodleplex 21:19, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

Yeah, "franchise" seems like the wrong word, since it implies the series as a whole. I'd just drop that word from the title. No other changes are needed, imo. --Idris (talk) 21:35, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
