Infobox inclusions: listed status

edit

Should the listed building status be included in the infobox? It is in by default in a number of infobox templates for historic buildings and is an important piece of informaton about the subject. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 09:40, 9 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

No. Histories and other articles on Netley Castle make little or no reference to its listed building status, nor the date that it was given that status; it doesn't therefore appear to be a "key feature" of the article, which is the requirement described for inclusion under MOS:INFOBOX.

I'm not sure the guidebook you refer to on Winchester Castle has direct relevance to this article...? Hchc2009 (talk) 19:10, 9 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

As nobody eles seems to be worried about this I will reinstate the listing information in a week's time Murgatroyd49 (talk) 11:54, 24 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
I think it should be included. Listed status is often a key consideration when deciding whether or not a building is notable - as such, Wikipedia deems it a "key feature" even if some of the sources don't. WaggersTALK 10:05, 25 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
