The television specials section is way too big. I suggest that someone who knows Peanuts pretty well weed out some of the less known specials leaving only the well known ones. Then have a link to the rest of them. I wouldn't dare do it myself because I don't know Peanuts too well. → J@red  20:37, 29 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Instead, I suggest seperating the television specials section to another template. Any objections? --TBC☆^{O M G!} 01:12, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that would work, too. Just, on the main template, put a link of "Television Specials" linking to the new template, from which one could navigate through the specials. Then, on each TV special page, the template needs to be changed. I can do that with AWB if you want when you finish making the temp. Thanks. → J@red  14:07, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, too big. At least the text size could be made smaller. I don't know how to shrink the text size. I messed with it to try to make it fit in a smaller space. The result may not be the best... --Xyzzyplugh 22:40, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. The navbox is way too big. See § Navbox with collapsible groups below for a solution I've been working on. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 07:07, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Was Royanne Hobbs a regular enough character in the early 90s to be included on the template? Grutness...wha? 23:04, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I created an article for the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center. Should it be on the template? faithless (^speak) 04:07, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm adding it then. faithless (^speak) 10:15, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why is Donna Johnson on the template at all? Why does she even have a Wikipedia page? Her sole claim to fame is the supposed inspiration of the Peanuts character "the little red-headed girl". She had no active participation in the development or production of the Peanuts strip or other media. --Sc straker (talk) 02:35, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed due to the result of the AFD Merge. --Sc straker (talk) 19:40, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have just converted this template's navbox into navbox with collapsible groups. The purpose of this change is to improve the display in articles. Currently, the navbox is quite large when expanded; when collapsed, only the title bar is displayed. The changes I have implemented cause the navbox to display three bars: one for the template itself (expanded), one for the characters (expanded), and one for everything else (collapsed).

I have not saved over the template at this time. Instead, I have created its sandbox so that it can be reviewed by the community. One particular thing I'm concerned about, is a message box near the top of Template:Navbox with collapsible groups which says that it does not display for mobile views. The community may wish to include this as part the discussion. An alternate option is to create two individual navboxes in {{Peanuts}} that will effectively perform the same task: show the list of characters as a small expanded navbox, but collapse the large navbox below it. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 07:00, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Done: With no reply, I've chosen Suggested Option 1 as being the most versatile for the different Peanuts articles. I've checked, and navboxes do not display in mobile view, so any option makes no difference in how it displays for mobile readers. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 08:31, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Due to size, wouldn't it be better to split the template into multiple ones? It has been done with other large templates such as Template:Pokémon, Template:Transformers, Template:Dragon Ball, etc. --LoЯd ۞pεth 21:00, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
