Military service edit

Freeman served four years in the air force. His military service is worth three sentences in the article. As he is not known for his military service, then why does he have an infobox about his military service? That looks at least like giving it undue weight.

I say keep it. Many prople have a military service part to an infobox, even if its small. See also,Hunter Biden, Ralph Abraham (politician), and Mark Amodei. LuxembourgLover (talk) 19:14, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a real argument. Is there any policy? The Banner talk 23:18, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
We have the Manual of Style. MOS:INFOBOX:An infobox is a panel ... that summarizes key facts about the page's subject. MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE: to summarize (and not supplant) key facts that appear in the article. ... The less information it contains, the more effectively it serves that purpose, allowing readers to identify key facts at a glance. NebY (talk) 20:52, 28 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
