Too much information hidden in infobox and non-citation footnotes

This article is a train-wreck of "hidden" information that will not be included in many reuses of Wikipedia content (which typically drop various templates and other non-essential text, as do various ). Nothing should appear in the infobox that is not already covered properly in regular prose in the article with source citations. See MOS:INFOBOX. The purpose of an infobox is to briefly summarize a few key points; it is not to act as a stand-alone "alternative article" like this. Likewise, we use footnotes for source citations, and for niggling details that are worth keeping for researchers but of little interest to most readers. The meaning/origin of the name hardly qualifies, and is central information for the main article body. Frankly, this is the kind of misconfigured article that inspires hatred of infoboxes and leads to editwars to delete them. — AReaderOutThatawayt/c 22:34, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
