 * Longest-running Indian TV Shows

Doesn't meet the criteria of WP:NAVBOX. This template groups a loose collection of subjects that share a common characteristic but that don't otherwise refer to each other. The information in the template is or could be already covered in List of television programs by episode count or in a standalone list for Indian serials. Psychonaut (talk) 10:46, 17 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Longest-running Broadway shows

Doesn't meet the criteria of WP:NAVBOX. This template groups a loose collection of subjects that share a common characteristic but that don't otherwise refer to each other. Besides this, the list is too long and unorganized to be realistically useful for navigation. A list article is more appropriate here, and in this case one already exists.
