Template talk:St

Purpose and scope
Perhaps the designers of this template can describe the situations in which it is better than copying and pasting the page you get by clicking "Info_article_template". I can see some disadvantages that might not be outweighed by the simplicity: mostly that you can't edit it immediately, so you can't add anything under the headings (except the last) or subtract material (e.g. the Children" heading and template for a childless person) until after the first save. And in the form in which I found it, it did not include the two most standard headings and it did not include the formatting that displays the person's full name and short description at the top of the article. I gave it three headings to add to the two that it had, and I think it should include that formatting. I'm also a fan of including the Siblings heading with its usually usable template, because many contributors like to list a person's siblings in the person's article. — Robin Patterson (Talk) 13:48, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
