I ask this as many individuals in the DWU have pets, and I think it would be a handy section. [[User:Epsilon the Eternal|Epsilon the Eternal]] [[User talk:Epsilon the Eternal|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 01:01, September 9, 2020 (UTC)

partner killed by design?

Recently, I saw a field "partner" being used for the cases of intimate relationships that are not marriages (see, for instance, Charlie Smith. It seems that this functionality has disappeared. I'm just wondering if that was a collateral of some other changes or a conscious deletion? Amorkuz 20:26, April 24, 2017 (UTC)

Returned to infobox. Thanks for catching it!

Phrasing

Maybe “More behind the scenes” stuff should be changed to “Another behind the scenes moment” to make it more formal.{{raw:w:papi}} 11:10, August 16, 2017 (UTC)

"First seen in" phrasing?

Right now, there are three variables in this template regarding appearances:

  • "first", which renders in the infobox as "First seen in"
  • "only", which renders in the infobox as "Appearance"
  • "appearances", which renders in the infobox as "Appearances"

One of these things is not like the other! While "first" is an indispensable part of the infobox, phrasing it as "First seen in" really only makes sense for TV and comic stories: nobody is "seen" in a prose or audio. Changing it to "First appearance" would only add three characters (making it the same length as "Main voice actor") and remove this weird ambiguity. Could this be changed here and in other infoboxes with the same variable? – N8 (/👁️) 15:58, February 20, 2020 (UTC)

I concur with N8. Now that it's been pointed out, "First appearance" would be vastly more appropriate. Epsilon the Eternal 01:01, September 9, 2020 (UTC)

Pets

Something of an odd request, but would it be at all possible for a new section of this infobox to be added, for pets? I ask this, as many individuals in the DWU have pets, and I think it would be a useful section. Epsilon the Eternal 01:01, September 9, 2020 (UTC)
