This template was nominated for deletion. Please review the prior discussions if you are considering re-nomination:
Right now only one can be chosen to be displayed into a given Infobox, which is irrationally limiting. For example Superman's origin is Krypton but his home is Metropolis - but only either of these parameters can be used at the same time, instead of both. 5.173.80.72 (talk) 10:25, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Religion is not supposed to be displayed in biography infoboxes, per WP:INFONAT and the RFC referenced by Template:Infobox person. Template:Infobox religious biography can be used for people who actually have a religious occupation or are part of the content of a religion, but I don't see any of those currently using {{Infobox character}} searching on "insource:/\{\{[Ii]nfobox character.*religion *= *[A-Z]/". I was planning to empty out this field; is there a preferred procedure? I could change the template to indicate it is deprecated, move the content to some place in the article body, or just drop this information and assume that if it's important it would have been covered in the article body. -- Beland (talk) 17:21, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree that fictional characters should be treated the same as biographies of real people; MOS:FICTION makes very clear that the two are to be treated differently. — HTGS (talk)06:15, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okey! MOS:WAF-INFO doesn't mention religion or ethnicity specifically; it requires in-universe data in infoboxes to be "essential". Since not too many articles are using this field, why don't I do a deep database scan and see how it is being used, and we can discuss which are appropriate. -- Beland (talk) 09:45, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am happy with that idea. I wouldn’t be surprised if we find—and agree!—that most characters using the field should not have their religion listed so prominently in the lead/infobox. — HTGS (talk)04:42, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
