The Template:Infobox person has this feature see Jack Ma. This can be useful to add in saint infoboxes the modules of native saint names as in Siméon-François_Berneux who has a korean name.

I notice that the death_cause parameter hasn't been carried over from infobox person: this strikes me as a little odd, since lots of saints are notable for the manner of their deaths (particularly in the case of martyrdom). I noticed this while editing Miroslav Bulešić: it would be useful to be able to say in the infobox that he was assassinated, as that was the reason for his beatification. If it is felt appropriate, could that parameter be added to this template? UndercoverClassicist (talk) 15:48, 8 May 2023 (UTC) UndercoverClassicist (talk) 15:48, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't link "Shrine"

It's an ordinary English word, everybody knows what it means, so MOS:OVERLINK says we don't link it. Isaac Rabinovitch (talk) 17:06, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
