Forum:"Mentions" field being deactivated
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
Some articles seem to have "mentions" fields in their infoboxes that are becoming somewhat unruly. Instead of having "list of mentions", could we incorporate them into list of appearances pages? I know me don't actually have list of mentions pages, but articles like Dalek clearly need to dump them somewhere.--Skittles the hog - talk 19:31, September 20, 2011 (UTC)
Even for minor characters, where the list isn't very long, I think that's a good idea. For example, look at Kamelion. If you want to find out his first appearances, you have to follow a link to another page, but if you want to know which CC had a brief indirect reference to him, it's right there in the infobox?
I'm not sure whether it's better to create "list of mentions"pages or add them to "list of appearances" pages, but either one seems better than what we have now. --70.36.140.19 07:22, September 21, 2011 (UTC)
So your saying that anything with a list or appearances, shouldn't have mentions in the infobox, but on its page? I could go with that, yeah.--Skittles the hog - talk 06:50, September 28, 2011 (UTC)
