[edit] Use of infoboxes

I think we shouldn't use infoboxes in this article. They make the article unwieldy. Everything in the infoboxes can be incorporated into the section if properly sourced (birth dates, positions etc).--Fogeltje (talk) 12:13, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

I Think they're fine IF the section is long enough for it, like fords and smiths. Dr. Stantz (talk) 20:56, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Use of Rank

Due to the ever changing of ranks in the show I vote to Go by name and have the rank mentioned in the info box and or article. I.e. Henderson went from Seaman to LtJg, or Picollo, who went from Seaman to Petty officer to Warrant officer. Dr. Stantz (talk) 20:56, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Alternatively you can mention the last rank they had on the show in the subtitle, Lt JG for Henderson and WO for Picollo. If that is done in a consistent manner, then I don't see a problem. The promotions can be addressed in the text. But either way is fine, as long as we keep it consistent.--Fogeltje (talk) 21:58, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
