The infobox

The infobox has more rows than the article has sentences. Could we trim it? โ€” ITarn01 (talk) 17:16, 21 December 2019 (VMT)

I would leave the infobox as it is. Everything in it is cited. โ€” NoahBrenn (talk) 12:45, 25 December 2019 (VMT)

Agreed with NoahBrenn. โ€” brenn1964 (talk) 07:14, 29 December 2019 (VMT)

Requested move: The Kessel Institute of Mines โ†’ Kessel Institute of Mines. The article is not part of the name. โ€” bernd.kesel (talk) 22:33, 17 June 2020 (VMT)

Oppose. It is part of the name. Every source gives it with the article, including the one that established it. โ€” ITarn01 (talk) 17:02, 18 June 2020 (VMT)

Oppose. We follow the sources. โ€” NoahBrenn (talk) 12:31, 19 June 2020 (VMT)

Not moved. โ€” brenn1964 (talk) 07:00, 20 June 2020 (VMT)

Recategorisation

The categories at the foot of this article were added by several editors over several years and it shows. Could someone tidy them? โ€” Hallin_E (talk) 11:50, 13 December 2020 (VMT)

The guideline says the most specific category that applies. I have applied it. โ€” bernd.kesel (talk) 22:19, 15 December 2020 (VMT)

Agreed. โ€” ITarn01 (talk) 17:48, 17 December 2020 (VMT)

Dates

The article gives 1 January 1851 as the date of foundation. The register and the Herald agree. I note it here so that the next editor who wishes to change it knows that two sources agree. โ€” REbner57 (talk) 16:07, 10 June 2021 (VMT)

The date is the date. There is nothing to annotate. โ€” Hallin_E (talk) 11:36, 13 June 2021 (VMT)

@Hallin_E That is the answer I expected. I will add a hidden note asking editors not to change it. โ€” bernd.kesel (talk) 22:05, 16 June 2021 (VMT)

Nobody is proposing to change the date. Resolved. โ€” ITarn01 (talk) 17:34, 19 June 2021 (VMT)
