[edit] Edits to the infobox

Try not to change things in the infobox that would affect the articles where the infobox has already been placed (i.e. changing OWNERS to owners), as this requires someone to go back and change the code in the other articles. Thank You. --Smarterthanu91 Talk 00:44, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Templates are not static things. If they need to be fixed, they need to be fixed. Someone who watches the pages where the template is used will notice and update the template accordingly. I mean, what you are saying is that one a template is created and transclused in an article it can never been changed. That is just silly. — Linnwood 16:10, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Templates can be changed in an article, I'm fine with that, but something as unnecessary as changing the capitalization of a variable so that many other pages need to be edited isn't worth the work. That is silly. --Smarterthanu91 Talk 17:13, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
It isn't silly, it is standardization, something Wikipedia could use a lot more of. I have gone through and changed all of the templated in each article it is used in. — Linnwood 04:51, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Font size

I think 90% should be a good size for fonts in the infobox. "Smaller" is too small and 95% is too large. Agree/disagree? --Zimbabweed 15:39, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
