Template:Infobox adult biography

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was redirect to Template:Infobox person. There is a majority of support for not including the "number of films" parameter, and as the template is a wrapper already that means that redirection is all that is necessary. Primefac (talk) 16:39, 22 September 2017 (UTC) Propose merging Template:Infobox adult biography with Template:Infobox person.
 * Infobox adult biography
 * Infobox person

 * Comment. Functionally, the adult biography template is essentially Infobox person with one field added (number_of_films).  If that field can be supported, a merge should be uncontroversial.  That said, documentation with the most used fields is the biggest issue. • Gene93k (talk) 20:03, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
 * comment, the number of films could be listed under notable_works or known_for. I don't think we need to add more parameters to infobox person. Frietjes (talk) 15:01, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Support the merge; the field "number_of_films" is pretty pointless, as the actors / filmmakers can put out dozens if not hundreds. It does not make the subject notable, and the number is no longer considered in the deletion discussions, for example. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:18, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Support. Chicbyaccident (talk) 13:06, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Support The 'number of films' parameter needs manual updating, which sometimes might take a while to reflect the true amount of porn films one actor/actress did. It's not of much use. 81.106.34.193 (talk) 18:29, 17 September 2017 (UTC) (as User:My name is not dave)
 * Support, including the fact that we can lose the useless number_of_films. If we don't need that data for all actors, we don't need to for one genre of them.  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  15:13, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Support. The number of films is a good article content item. No need for it in the infobox.   Paine Ellsworth   put'r there  03:31, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
