Hi Kulid123,

Thank you for working to amend infoboxes - it is valuable and it is needed. However, you are causing me a little bit of word and I wanted to provide you with some feedback:

  • Infoboxes - are designed to give a very high level summary so that if the reader takes nothing else away these are the key bits of information they need. Adding a list of 15 names for the Drúedain, for instance, isn't helpful to the reader; they shouldn't be in alphabetical order, either, but in order of most common. Similarly, there are certain conventions you must have noticed (such as length of kingship is not stated) and please stick to those.
  • Infobox type - a good deal of thought has gone into deciding which character/location gets which infobox, and can cause a level of dispute when these change; also note that both the kingdom and location infoboxes are inadequate and I am currently working through those templates to bring them in line with others. If you wish to change a infobox please discuss it on the article's talk page first.
  • References - please check out Help:References and see this edit to learn how to use references properly.

Thanks. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 21:38, 14 February 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Do you wish to start an edit-war? --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 20:14, 15 February 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'm editing with proper references and whats said in tolkien's works. Please hurry up with editing the infoboxes and don't blame me for putting "false" information in infoboxes. I will consult talk pages in deciding to change an infobox but don't delete my correct information cuz thats hypocritical to what ur telling me. Don't get cheesed but i'm sorry for however I wronged you. --Kulid123 20:40, 15 February 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
