I know - sorry, I should have discussed it here first. However, the red makes it really hard to see the blue. I think practical accessibility is more important than personal aesthetic here. If you're really keen on it being red then sure, go ahead, but please find a colour that makes it possible to

Also, I wonder if the links to the 'related articles' and the minor band members are really necessary too. They're not hugely relevant and if they are they're linked within the prose. The template should really be a navigational tool that simply links only the most important and relevant articles.
215:
I always thought it was a bit big myself - I don't really mind the loss and the single articles aren't at a very good standard anyway. The individual album articles link to their respective singles which I think is probably enough. Having all the years linked is a bit messy too - I've fixed that.
262:
They are an important part of RHCP's work. But the purpose of a navigational template is to help people navigate through the articles. Having all of their singles makes it much harder to search through the template and gets in the way of this template's being useful.
312:
It's my general belief that the singles should be re-added, as I constantly find myself wishing to find a Singles article, and am thus forced to go to the coinciding album article to navigate into the single article. It's tedious and cumbersome at best.

I think the Singles section makes the template too large. A navigational template is just that; it should help users navigate the articles easily. The Singles section makes it awkwardly large, for example taking up half of the

Two links is not far. Having forty links to articles that are essentially subtopics of the albums is excessive, and it ends up taking up a huge amount of space (most of my screen, and half of some articles like
272:
They're important, yes, but there are simply too many of them and it makes the template huge and unwieldy and isn't nice for people on slow connections. Calling our edits 'vandalism' was pretty rude, BTW.

i deleted the cover art because it has been confirmed by the official board that the posted picture was not actually the real single cover. the cover will be from the official hump de bump video.

I believe that a dark red is not only appropriate for their name, it is also aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and would function fine as the color of the background for the title. Comments? -
284:
Haha, sorry, no I see what you guys are saying, go ahead and delete the singles I guess, it just makes me sad.... I think I was in a bad mood when I said that stuff earlier, sorry... -

Woah, woah, wait a second, the singles section is a very important part of the Red Hot Chili Pepper's work, in my opinion. If you think it's too long, just hide it in the future. -

is far too large. As an artist releases more work, it appears to be common practice to simply link to higher-level articles. As an example, see the solution for

OK, I understand your point about how it shouldn't be in that section. But I still feel it should be on the template. Where do you think it would fit under? -
133:
type of red, so I have an ounce of self-esteem in my edits left? Haha, but seriously, I think it would be appropriate to make it some type of red. -
297:
Hehe, it's okay :) It's not like the singles articles are gone, we just don't have a huge list of them plastered over every page.
326: 112: 42: 189: 103: 33: 159:
Alright, no, I don't want to restore the red that makes the links hard to see, I'll try to find a better one. -
377: 340: 383:
OK, even if it's a bootleg, shouldn't it be somewhere in the template? Like maybe in other? -

Lone years aren't supposed to be linked anyway, so I've delinked them.
