[edit] Place of death

Think it would be OK to add a field for place of death? — Dale Arnett 00:49, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Yes. Biographical templates such as this one should include as many of the fields used by {{Infobox person}} as possible, Andy Mabbett | Talk to Andy Mabbett 19:44, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

I've removed it because it leaves a huge blank space in each infobox already done. To correct it, it means going back and inserting "|deathplace =" in every single one that has been already created --- and I've created a great many (in fact, virtually all) of them. I regret I didn't think to put it in when I created the template however feel free to reinsert this if you are prepared to go to all bios where it exists and insert the "|deathplace =" in each one.

It shouldn't do, if applied properly. Also, note "resting place" and "resting place coordinates" in {{Infobox person}}. Andy Mabbett | Talk to Andy Mabbett 20:04, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Think someone could add that field for place of death? I'm not going to try again, seeing what happened the last time I tried it.  :) — Dale Arnett (talk) 18:34, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
