[edit] Launch Dates?

Is it necessary to include these in the template? I think we should rely on the articles themselves to provide this info. IMHO info on the quarter in which its realeased is fine enough for a template. For comparison, car articles (BMW, Nissan) show these succession boxes using only the year of introduction. More specific details are then left to the articles themselves. A reader of the succession infobox is interested in "information at a glance". If there is a specific model he wants more info on (including launch dates) he would go to the article. Zunaid©Please rate me at Editor Review! 13:29, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

I started this infobox adding launch dates because they weren't organized in the articles, neither always present, I looked for it in dpreview timetables. This precision was adding information, it should be replaced in each article. It should be useful to add a field into the Template:Infobox_Digicam. My inspiration were car timetables, indeed, and I put some thoughts for the quarters divisions. --Marc Lacoste 23:26, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
