Okay, so it's just some poor editor explanation then; thanks for clearing that up. - Would I be right in assuming that the reason for not having a 'mentions' section in the infobox (when they are in other pages) would be the relative 'lack of mentions' up to this point?   [[User:Baziel|Baziel]] 19:35, June 20, 2011 (UTC)

Mentions?

Can someone explain to me why the mention of the Headless Monks in Time of Angels has been removed? The user that originally removed the mention explicitly claimed they did not recall the mention as justification for removing it. After it being pointed out, they've then claimed that mentions aren't allowed. But as far as I can tell there are plenty of pages on this wiki with lists of mentions in the box (Dalek jumps out at me for instance). Am I missing some of this wiki's policy? - I have my own wiki to run, so I generally don't get overly caught up in others; but this seems a little bit of a weird procedure to me.

Mentions are allowed. User:Bold Clone reverted the mention as he didn't recall it, and then again as there isn't actually a mentioned section in the infobox. The mention is still, well, mentioned in the article body.----Skittles the hog--Talk 19:09, June 20, 2011 (UTC)
