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.--{{User:Skittles the hog/sig}} 19:31, September 20, 2011 (UTC) | Some articles seem to have "mentions" fields in their infoboxes that are becoming somewhat unruly.

<p style="margin-left: 40px; ">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?</p> | |||
<p style="margin-left: 40px; ">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. --[[Special:Contributions/70.36.140.19|70.36.140.19]] 07:22, September 21, 2011 (UTC)</p> | |||
