Template talk:Game infobox

Adding "sales" to infobox
I think it would be a good idea to add global or regional sales of a game to this infobox. It's use would be optional, but it would be good because not all articles have sales infomation. Does anyone agree?


 * Make a TTP if you feel it is necessary PTR (trivialWarlord)
 * I think sales should go in the reception section/the opening paragraph like on Super Mario Galaxy personally.

TTP (adding sales in the infobox)
Hi everyone! I'm proposing to add 'sales' as a parameter to the template. As I said above, it would be necessary because often this information is overlooked, and if it was added to the infobox, it would push users to fill it. Responding to a comment above, yes, the info can go elsewhere on an article, but wouldn't it be better to collect it in the infobox?

Support (add parameter)

 * 1) Per my proposal.

Oppose (leave infobox as it is)

 * 1) - I feel like it'd be better to use sales as a way to try and motivate users to create full-on Reception sections: it's an easy jumping-off point, onto which more in-depth info can be added. Sales also need explanations a lot of the time, especially if there's more than one region, and that'd better suited to paragraph form, rather than just sticking the numbers in an infobox.
