Template talk:Genre menu
Proposed Changes[edit]
I'd like to propose two changes:
1. Add one more section to the end of the menu that leads to Category:Games_by_genre, because all the other categories not in the menu tend to remain unnoticed. One can access the category from the Main page, but imho users don't go back there when they start exploring the wiki. One can also access the category from every game article by clicking genre in the gameinfo-box, but there is so much blue there that this can easily be overlooked. I'd be a nudge that says »There is more than these categories«. See also https://freegamedev.net/d/230-text-monster-collecting-game/10 The name could be More or Other or Miscellaneous or Misc. I'd prefer More over Misc.
2. The section Sports is the only one that works in its way. This could lead to Sports games remaining unnoticed because users focus on the two field which appear when hovering over Sports. Therefore change

** [[Flight simulation games]]
