Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Infoboxes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This list is part of WikiProject Biography and presents recommended biography infoboxes.
Word of caution! Certain biography articles have opposition camps on infoboxes. With the current work groups, it is generally safe, but, for instance, scientist articles can have some heated debates on these. So, if you are tagging a scientist or academic, first ask on the Talk page. In addition, other infoboxes may be available that are not listed here but recommended by a particular work group (see People infobox templates).
