Date of birth

The doc now advises use of {{birth date and age}}, which requires a full date. However, as per WP:DOB the exact birth date should normally not be included in articles about living people unless it is widely published already, or has clearly been published with the approval of the person. Many editors seem to be automaically following this documetation and insertig full dates of birth where they should not. I have now included a warning about this and a suggestion to use {{birth year and age}} in the doc. DES ^(talk) 18:57, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Signature

Signature option would be an interesting addition. --Opus88888 (talk) 16:33, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In composer articles without this infobox, I notice it is common practice to include the signature when available. To encourage adoption of this template over the larger Template:Infobox_person, I concur on the inclusion of the fields: signature, signature_alt, and signature_size Seth Williamson (talk) 12:09, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Opus88888 and Sethwilliamson: After several months, no objection, so done. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:55, 28 January 2017 (UTC).[reply]

I will also go for a signature as well.--ZKang123 (talk) 13:19, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Where shall I put the other composers?

Interested Parties Information relates all kind of composers, authors, adaptors, arrangers, etc. not only for the classical music. I suggest to expand this template for all mentioned persons. (Even the publishers.) ZJ (talk) 11:09, 22 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

IPI name identifier

I want to genereate a new line for IPI name indetifies according to Interested Parties Information for classical and non-classical composers. How can I do? ZJ (talk) 16:07, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
