Hi all, on this page I noticed any templates is not rendered anymore after the section "Capitoli non ancora in formato tankōbon" and I don't uderstand the reason. Is there a limit of template calls? How can I get around it/fix it? Thanks.

I didn't fully understood the help page, aside from reducing the number of templates used is there any other workaround? The problem is that One Piece is likely to reach about 120 volumes, if that's the case that page will be twice as big. I'd like to avoid further splitting up the page... I believe the most used template there is this one, but substituting all of them will mess up the page and also will it change anything? What it counts is the size, isn't it? (insert size-joke here)
Well, actually what counts is the amount of data that has to be returned from templates. My suggestion would be to separate the code into multiple pages. I would divide it into a page for volumes 1-10, volumes 11-20, etc. that way it would be an easier load and the page wouldn't be a few miles long.
That's exactly what I did a long time ago...
You'd have to keep them separate; the post-expand include size includes all forms of transclusions, not just those from the template namespace.
Sorry, I didn't get what you mean... I separated the page like that because otherwise editing it would have been quite hard. What you think I should do?
Ugh... wait, I just got an idea: using DPL to display the subpages will get around the limit?
DPL is for displaying page names, not the pages. The problem is that the entire page takes 10-15 seconds to load (at least for me), and that can be used to attack Wikia (by making the server overload). There's no way you can get around it, unless you either just link to the subpages or put the script directly on the page.
Actually with DPL you can make a lot of things, like transcluding all the subpages of that page. I'm going to test it, but now that I think about it won't probably change anything since they would still cont as template calls.
Just for the reference, do you have very long pages on your wiki or have experienced with this sort of problems before?
With DPL, the stopper of the page rendering might still exist. It's the limit of how many templates that the Wikia server wishes to string together and output onto one page that is the problem, and it cannot be fixed by a different method that does the same action as Templates do (although I haven't heard of using DPL for displaying pages).
As Iggyvolz and Bobogoobo said, you should have each information on different pages, and have a disambiguation page to switch from one to the next, or use DPL to link all the categorized pages together through a TOC.
And never have very long pages.
