Some asprin for you

Your head must be hurting from all the head-slapping it is receiving so I thought you might need this. There is a good case to deprecate infoboxes in contentious topic. Editors would then have to focus on the real issue of the body of the article. Cinderella157 (talk) 02:21, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

Cinderella157 – Thank you. It's visibility. The eye is drawn to the infobox, or, if that doesn't exist, the lede. That then informs editors to prioritise infobox > lede > article instead of the inverse. You see the same problem with how many editors handle news sources: quoting the headline instead of reading the article content. Mr rnddude (talk) 01:00, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
