Forum:CT Archive/Mentioned only

Proposed by Eyrezer:

This consensus track is to something of an add on to this vote on how the tag is to used. Currently our Layout Guide makes mention of the "Mentioned only" template in the Appearances section only. However, I personally also use it in the Sources section, for instance when something is name dropped in a "non-fiction" source but no information is provided beyond the name. I think this is a very useful piece of information to have in the sources list, and I do not think adds any ambiguity. As such, I propose a small addition to the Layout Guide.


 * Currently under sources it has: Includes even the smallest mentions.
 * I propose changing to : Includes even the smallest mentions. These should be marked with the tag.

Keep Layout Guide as it currently is

Discussion
While I'm setting up a vote from the outset, please discuss it further. I saw someone say that all sources are mentions only (as opposed to appearances) so the template is redundant. While I don't think that is the case, perhaps a would do the trick if the  template is deemed unsatisfactory. --Eyrezer 05:49, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
