 Check out [an event archive page](https://wordpress.tv/event/wordcamp-
 europe-2018/) and scroll down. On the right sidebar there is a "Browse by
 WordCamp" heading followed by a list of all the terms in the events
 taxonomy. It's a really long list. There are 699 terms in that taxonomy
 right now and the list is always growing. We should find a new way for
 those events to be discovered.

 I propose we consider one of the following options:

 A. Remove the section entirely. It is not extremely important that we
 include other events in the sidebar of an event archive. They can be
 discovered other ways.
 B. Convert the list to a dropdown. It would still be a bit tedious to
 navigate but would be an improvement and would not take up so much space
 on the page. Plus it would be a pretty simple fix.
 C. Implement a search based dropdown. We'd probably need to load a jQuery
 library or something. I don't believe anything like it already exists on
 the site's frontend.
 D. Create a terms archive page for events, as described in [this
 ticket](https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1434) and link to that page
 instead of listing the terms there.
