I keep creating a infobox for this page, but it keeps getting deleted. May somebody stop deleting it, please? Jtconline08 (talk) 16:34, 21 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I deleted it. When that happens on Wikipedia the process is to post to the talk page and initate discussion, per what we call Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle. After the first revert it would have been best to start a discussion here instead of re-adding. That can be considered edit warring.
As for your edit, this is what we call a featured article. Generally it's best to discuss edits and changes to featured articles, because there are main editors here as well as people who were involved in reviewing and have been stewarding the article.
In my view, an infobox has limited utility for a person whose name is unknown, whose birth dates and death dates are unknown, etc. Victoria (tk) 23:47, 21 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

RfC: Infobox

edit

Similar to that of Kubrick, Bach, Beethoven or Sibelius, I'm starting and RfC to see the mood: Should Murasaki have a infobox or no? Zinderboff(talk) 04:29, 16 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

No, per the section above. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:52, 16 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
