Templates

In Marylin Monroe, you can see how to use {{death date and age}}. Be careful when changing articles with a little star in the upper right corner, "featured articles", with attested qualities some authors don't like to see changed. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:03, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Styles

Please stop making arbitrary changes to article spacing, styling and templates without having an understanding of the Manual of Style in use here. Refer to WP:MOS for more information. It would also help if you would use edit summaries to explain the removal of text so other editors understand why you object to the text. Otherwise, your changes may be reverted. --Laser brain (talk) 15:32, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
