I was noticing that the Big Game Supplies 2016 Promotion has the Template:Updates, which has all the info from the navebox templates for Events, Promotionals, Levels, etc, but are completely separate. I was wondering if we can somehow combine those so we don't have to update 2 templates every content update (Updates, and the sub-category). My ideal would be something like Template:Events calls Template:Updates, but sets state = uncollapsed for the Events group; same for the other update templates. That means for each new update, we just need to update Template:Updates, and we are adding 4 lines at the bottom of the page, but allowing quick links to the other updates, which can be very handy when 2 are going on at the same time, like when Much Apu About Nothing was at the end of Winter 2015 at the same time.

I'm not sure how to use a Template reference for each group, where you could change the state field from a higher call. I'm hoping for something like Template:Events to ideally be something like or something, but that means having a parameter passing in Navbox with collapsible groups, which I'm not seeing in there right now, and I'm not confortable even trying to attempt it. I need to do some Hello World type passing templates first. Thought I'd run it by you if even worth exploring.

We could even do something like this for Decorations/Buildings/Facades (since we have a number that seem like one but are the other, and the upgradable Winter attractions were decorations until fully upgraded, then became buildings, so people might be looking in one area and not see it....

Side note: why does Category:Navbox Templates show Astronaut Barney, Kamp Bart (quest chain), and Paris Texan?? I can't figure out why that would be, and there isn't a call on any of those pages, so they have to be transcluded somehow, but I can't see it... The only thing I can tell is that they were all edited recently. Looking at my edits, it shows adding the category Navbox Templates, but I didn't mess with any templates.......
