A simple suggestion

The current emulation pages are no match against Emulation General Wiki. Shouldn't they rather be dropped altogether ? Imho, a simple page with a summary about emulation (what it is, separation of emulation software and the software itself (ROMs/dumps)) and a collection of quality links (EGW, NonMAME (MAME-centric list of emulators, possibly others)) should do. I can volunteer to write it.

Could use updates/ideas/help to make it better, but that's done.

So I've updated all the currently existing emulation articles and have a few thoughts on our progress thus far. We need graphics (which I theoretically can make, if hungry eyes is busy) for Emulation/NoEmulation, the stub-esque templates at the top of every Emulation page.

I'm also thinking about making a navbox (collapsed by default?) for the entire Emulation section (nothing like Wikipedia's navboxes, those are ugly and inconvenient usually. I would prefer a more graphical approach). Should that idea fail, I think I'd prefer a series box approach vs. the current successor/predecessor listing. It's inconsistent across pages (some have successors AND predecessors, others only have one or the other) and requires too much navigation for something that should be simple (e.g. going from PS4 -> PS1). If we can successfully make a navbox then the Successor/Predecessor parameters are probably fine to keep.
