Caption

[edit]

As per MOS:CAPLENGTH, I understand the current situation of the infobox picture may fall under a "short caption scenario" (2nd scenario); i.e: Infoboxes for things that change over time can mention the year of the image briefly, e.g. "Cosby in 2010" for Bill Cosby. If the image is of a person doing that for which they are known at an otherwise common event, the correct verb delivers the message, e.g. "Jackson performing in 1988" for Michael Jackson; so "Magnin in 2024" may be the default caption under this scenario. @Alexpl:, can you make a compelling case about the applicability of a more detailed caption (while more detail could be added, consider carefully whether it might distract the reader from the subject of the article or inform the reader about the importance of the subject). In particular, I find the dmy precision specially inane/jarring.--Asqueladd (talk) 16:24, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Asqueladd: I copied the box from Erika Eleniak - the length of the caption there has been uncontested for years. So it seemed appropriate. Alexpl (talk) 06:22, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
