We really need to discuss the rules/guidelines for adding such navigational templates as this:

Wikipedia has way too many of them, and that is what subpages--in this case, Related Articles pages--are for. I do think we should discuss this, but my first take is that we should probably move all such lists of links onto Related Articles pages. I think that if you consider it carefully, you'll see that this the long-term most sensible way forward.

Note that there's no reason that we can't use templates on related articles pages. But the nice thing about putting such navigational links on the related articles pages is that you can make the type larger, and add more "definition"-type information (e.g., where the constellation is located, what season it appears highest in, etc.). See CZ:Definitions too. --Larry Sanger 10:51, 14 December 2007 (CST)
