::Just so I understand, would this mean that a person would always have an Infobox_Person, but if they also want to indicate they're an actor, they would have an ADDITIONAL Infobox_Actor on the page with just information that's useful for actors (and for which the community could establish guidelines)? Since you can build multiple infoboxes on one page, like [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Prodigenous_Zee/Run_to_the_Hills_infobox&action=edit this song page], I think that we have the best policy in saying that company, NPO, person, and government are fixed and approved Infoboxes, while anything else should be "addenda" to the fundamental boxes. --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 06:59, 6 December 2006 (PST)

:::Yes, we lock in company, NPO, gov't, person, and ''property'' with std infoboxes. [I guess we now have person (entity/individual), place & thing.] All other infoboxes will be considered supplemental. Your song example should have a property infobox, then a song infobox.
:::'''Sidenote''': if a song is in the public domain (eg Oh Sussana), then it it would be (a) placed in the Main space, (b) NOT have an infobox_property, (c) BUT have an infobox_song.
:::This type of organization will lend itself very well to further granularization for all types of listings eg actors, authors, recording artists, business groupings, etc, etc. [[User:Centiare|Centiare]] 07:20, 6 December 2006 (PST)
