Marriage template in infobox[edit]

The infobox used in this article is Template:Infobox person, currently used on more than 404,000 pages. The template documentation states that the spouse field be completed as follows:

Name of spouse(s), followed by years of marriage. Use the format Name (married 1950–present) for a current spouse, and Name (married 1970–99) for former spouse(s). Use article title (if linking) or common name. For multiple entries, use an inline list. For deceased persons still married at time of death, do not include the end year.

On April 19, an editor reformatted the information in the spouse field of the Pola Stout and Rex Stout infoboxes by using the Template:Marriage. This template provides a great deal more detail, and is today being used on approximately 49,000 pages. Although editors have proposed it in past years, consensus is against it being added to the Infobox:Person template.

I would ask that editors who wish to use the marriage template in the Infobox:Person template propose the change and argue the merits at Template talk:Infobox person. — WFinch (talk) 12:38, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
