User talk:Who/Imdb

I propose we replace the attribute with
 * This proposal is for changing Template:Imdb name and Template:Tvtome person.


 * I use it much more than typing the name, and I have yet to see a biographical article not named the same as the name attribute.


 * It will NOT effect the articles currently using the old style.


 * I am demonstrating the userfied template on the article Bruce Baron (randomly selected, rarely visited article). The name attribute will just be ignored for the original styles. I also incorporated the proposed change by Phil, that had no obvious objections.


 * This will reduce typo's in the name, as well as, speed up editing.

Entry on  at the Internet Movie Database
 * Here is the new code in use:
 * Renders as:

and *Entry on  at TV.com

Note: Since both templates function in the same manner, I am only demonstrating one of them, but both will be updated. <> Who ? &iquest; ? 20:55, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Technical limitations

 * This won't work out too well for pages whose titles aren't accurate (those using titlelacksdiacritics), the old template would need to remain for these at least. --Joy &#91;shallot&#93;   22:25, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually I just tested it with Luków, as it is using the titlelacksdiacritics), although it is in the title; and it seemed to work fine. Are there any other titles that currently have them that I could try it with?  <> Who ? &iquest; ?  22:45, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Or those that are disambiguated – James Stewart (actor) for example. violet/riga (t) 22:28, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Very good point indeed. I didn't think of those, and can't think of a way to work around them either.   <> Who ? &iquest; ?  22:33, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
