Template talk:Infobox places

Usage
Should this template be used on all business pages or not used at all? The information in the template will already be stated in the article, usually at the beginning of each article. However, I think it is a better option than the Restaurants template. A-Dust 11:50, 12 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm a fan of infoboxes if they actually condense information. If there is something with a large amount of small factual information, like a game or mission, then an infobox is really helpful in making that information visible, instead of forcing you to read through paragraphs of pointless text. With businesses, there isn't much apart from their location (which will often be multiple) and associated people (which varies wildly), and I don't really see how this infobox is better than a couple of sentences, not entirely convinced. But if it is just about businesses, call it Template:infobox business instead, keep it simple. Gboyers talk 12:08, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Name
Does anyone think the "Name" entry is somewhat redundant? Should it be removed?--spaceeinstein 09:41, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
