Splitting them into multiple, smaller templates on each sub-topic, and especially if individual groups within the template are collapsible child navboxes that have Wikipedia articles about their subjects and the smaller navigation templates would still satisfy most or all of the guidelines for good navboxes.
That makes your user page one of the most easily accessible pages to you on Wikipedia, making it a powerful tool. One of the things you can use your user page for is navigation. It is the perfect place for bookmarks and navbars/navboxes, to get you where you need to go on Wikipedia and related destinations fast.
Good navboxes generally follow most or all of these guidelines: All articles within a template relate to a single, coherent subject. The subject of the template should be mentioned in every article. The articles should refer to each other, to a reasonable extent. There should be a Wikipedia article on the subject of the template.
Nesting other templates inside of a navbox can cause the include size increase by a factor of two or more. This template currently supports the same in-line child syntax supported by {}, which mitigates this, but only for plain Navboxes (not other Navboxes with collapsible groups or Navboxes with columns).
Navboxes can also be used to link certain types of project pages (including essays, policies, and guidelines). Disambiguation pages and lists are exempt, though they may be used on some of these pages when editors agree. Navboxes should not be placed in user space, on talk pages, on category pages, or in redirects.
