Please help me with... Would it be possible for me to make a producer discography infobox where the rows are the number of releases during each year of their career? It seems it might be the most efficient infobox format for the article I'm working on (Draft:Kenichi Maeyamada discography) Glacialfox (talk) 20:22, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
- You are welcome to make one, but given that such a template does not yet exist despite thousands of discographies existing implies that it might not be a necessary thing. Of course, it might just be that no one has thought of it, which is why I will not dissuade you from doing so. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.

- Thank you for the response, I was suggested by someone who used to use wiki a lot and was advising me on changes to make while working on it that I have some sort of discography infobox for the page, but nothing seems to neatly match what I'm doing. Do you have any suggestions? Glacialfox (talk) 21:24, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
- Most of the time, discography is presented as a table, you may have misunderstood what an infobox is.
- When presented as a table, it's conventional to present in chronological order. That can usually be sufficient as a visual display of how many releases they have per year.
- If you wish to make a point out of the number of releases per year, it would be best to have an independent source that remarks on this collection of data. For you to make this sort of data display yourself would seem like original research, which is something we, as humble Wikipedia editors, are not supposed to do. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 02:49, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
