Arguments against infoboxes
In the following sortable table I try to list arguments against infoboxes that I find debatable. Some occur regularly, some less frequently. I hope to be able to link to this table rather than repeating the same responses in several situations. I give the arguments (from various discussions and without naming those who supplied them) a number and a name for easy reference. My response is to how I understand the argument, which may differ from how it was intended. Some strong expressions of dislike are omitted, for politeness. I add labels "stupid" and "ignorant" to some, not seriously so but to give a direction, according to "Consensus does not mean that stupidity and ignorance be given equal weight to common sense and knowledge." (thanks to Skookum1, 22 August 2013).

Note that I didn't touch the topics metadata ad microformats. I detailed explanation of microformats emitted by an infobox is presented by RexxS on Talk:Mont Juic (suite). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:22, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
