Thanks

Hi AussieLegend!

Thanks for your good humor with the (near surreal) discussion of categorizing Klingons. I noted another apology for being irritated yesterday, on my user page, after correcting inappropriate language on the template talk page. I played some Midnight Oil in your honor.

Convince me, and I'll block. I examined a handful of edits, and couldn't be as sure as you.—Kww(talk) 15:37, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

I see that another admin was convinced and has already blocked her. As I indicated in the AIV report, the traits exhibited by the editor are the same as the vandal that is well documented at User:AussieLegend/Project 04#The Verizon vandal. I've been putting up with this bozo for 3 months now so it's fairly easy to identify the sneakier vandalism as I've seen it all 639 times before. Fortunately I haven't been wrong yet. All the accounts that I've picked up so far, up to 18 March when the last SPI case was closed, were confirmed by CheckUser. --AussieLegend (talk) 16:02, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Hadn't seen the AIV report, just your reversions.—Kww(talk) 16:18, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

I see you were involved in discussion on a previous AfD. Anything you'd like to add? --Rob Sinden (talk) 11:02, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Made up rules?

You said "articles should generally only have one infobox". Did you make this rule up yourself or is there a wikipedia policy? You also said i left blank copies of {{Infobox model}} to articles, even though i havent done that. Pass a Method talk 08:51, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

The point is, adding infoboxes with only hair and eyecolour is pointless. You've also been adding {{Infobox model}} to articles where the infobox is not appropriate. --AussieLegend (talk) 08:56, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

An infobox giving eye/hair colour for models; how is that "pointless"? I specifically added them only for models, not exclusively actresses, nor singers etc. Pass a Method talk 10:58, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Eye and hair colour is relatively trivial information, which is why they're not included in {{Infobox person}}. Adding an entire infobox just to identify these two aspects only serves to add unnecessary clutter to articles. These infoboxes are known as disinfoboxes. As for "generally only having one infobox" have a look around Wikipedia. Sometimes articles have nested infoboxes but completely separate infoboxes for the same subject is unconventional at best. We generally select one infobox that most closely fits the person. --AussieLegend (talk) 11:13, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Actually, you're wrong. There are infoboxes including eye and hair colour. Look at Keeley Hazell for example. Pass a Method talk 12:11, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

How about a compromise where you add this infobox-style to the relevant articles. Pass a Method talk 12:19, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

That infobox is for nude models/performers. Do not add that to biographies of people who aren't. Nymf _hideliho! 12:35, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

There may be infoboxes that include eye and hair colour but, as is clear from what I wrote, I was talking about {{Infobox person}}, which is the main infobox used for biographical articles. As Nymf has pointed out, the infobox you're proposing is for nude models, performers and porn stars. It's inappropriate for most biographical articles. If you think eye and hair colour should be included, make the suggestion at Template talk:Infobox person.
