Should the {{{{first}}} variable on {{Infobox Individual}} really be pre-linked as with navigation variables on {{Infobox Story}}? Isn't it better format to allow for prefixes like DW, EDA and so forth? Or futureproof if two characters premiere in stories of the same name and different media?

Also, does the variable apply to everything or only characters with numerous appearances? -- Tybort (talk page) 02:07, March 13, 2012 (UTC)

Also, why is the same variable not automated like this for {{Infobox Species}}? Shouldn't it be consistent? -- Tybort (talk page) 21:01, March 24, 2012 (UTC)
