1264:. Did I suggest that you do that? No, that's impractical, silly and not at all what I meant. I believe that for the case of these add-ons—and these things should be treated case by case—that the link to the section where the add-ons are covered with some substance (not single lines) is useful to the reader for purposes of navigation between the games that comprise the series. And they are treated as games, namely expansions not too dissimilar to Brood War, by what sources we have. That is a fairly reasonable approach to improve how quickly the user can access the information; these links serve a separate purpose from the series link, a shortcut if you will. Maybe the Insurrection/Retribution links should be combined into a singular link since they go to the same place and are alongside each other. They are separated from the main games by the brackets, the common way of dealing with expansions and add-ons amongst the video games column of these sorts of navboxes. --
1231:! Okay, here you go. Reassuming my serious composure, not everything that is "official" or "authorized" is allowed in Knowledge. But this discussion belongs to the article and is not our concern here: What I was trying to point out is that even if there is a link to these items, the links should not be in the "video games" section. They are map packs, not video games. And let's not forget that they are not the only map packs in Knowledge. For the time being, let's defer the entire argument regarding not including the links at all to #1.

1318:. My copies of Insurrection or Retribution did not have those respectable CD covers. Strange! But now I see why you think they are full-fledged video games. There is an English proverb that essentially says dress brings respect, and they have respectable CD covers. I just wonder if you had seen "Starcraft: Fall from Grace".
1203:. They were packaged and sold as proper video game products with Blizzard's consent, regardless of their installation means being equivalent to a custom map pack. The links in the navbox allow readers to be aware of these less well-known yet still official add-ons, and give them quick access to the information.
1257:
If that is the attitude you are going to take, I fail to see why I should engage with you at all. I asked you, politely, to assume a little more good faith because I disliked the insinuation that I had placed these links here as advertising. I might have read too much into that initial comment, but
1115:
Yes, because the character articles were redirected whilst full work was being done on them outside of the
Knowledge mainspace. Most of these articles were reinstated in oblivious protest, but there's no point adding them back - when we are done only three characters will have main articles, as all
1223:
They are deleted; "merged" is just euphemism. (Nothing is left of the main articles.) And I don't remember having mentioned WP:NAVBOX at all. It is commons sense that there is no need for three links to the same article in a simple navbox. If I were supposed to link to every single line in the
1258:
if you just wish to be rude about it and accuse me of lacking reason, then there is little point continuing this discussion. I pointed to WP:NAVBOX as the relevant guideline on navboxes; apt, since this is a navbox. I don't need to wait for someone else to bring it up before I mention it.
1123:
Following that, the locations will be merged into a similar single article, which will also be added to the universe section, and the factions are being put into their (fully revised) species articles, so there's no need to re-add locations and factions either. And when we're done, the

would be appreciated, instead of essentially accusing me of advertising my favourite stuff. These are not like any other set of custom map packs, which could have been made by anyone with
Campaign Editor. These two packs were made by companies, not fans, and most importantly
1187:). There's more than "only a line about them", there's an entire section dedicated to these add-ons in the series article, and linking to this section is useful for quickly getting to the information on a valid related topic, which is ultimately the point of these navboxes.
478:
1279:
First, that is a great suggestion. I completely agree with creating a "Spin-off" link. This opens up the potential of adding a dozen of other authorized custom maps to the article later. So, I believe we have a consensus? Permission to make it
1154:
Unlike Brood Wars, they are not video games. They are just a bunch of files with .scm file extension (StarCraft Maps) and work like any other set of custom maps. Why should they be there and not thousands of other map packs? Remember that
