The Panopticon/External link duplication on real-world person articles

As it stands currently, a real-world person (such as an actor) typically gets their IMDb link, Twitter link, and official site link in the "External links" section at the foot of the page. They also, assuming the Person infobox has been correctly implemented, get those same external links in their infobox on the side of the page.

I'm wondering if this doesn't overcomplicate things. Especially on small articles, like Alexander Armstrong or Velile Tshabalala, the duplicated info is noticeably cluttering the page up.

Should we continue to present and maintain the same info twice on everyone's pages, or should we decide on either the infobox or the article proper as the correct place to present the links?
