Infobox or not edit

Per WP:INFOBOXUSE, the use of infoboxes is neither required nor prohibited, and should be decided based on consensus, case-by-case for each article. I'd argue against using an infobox here, as the scope of the article is rather varied, covering the subdistrict of Pilok, the village of I-tong, and the former mining community based there. Using an infobox will force us to apply a single description to it (i.e. as a subdistrict) and lose view of the wider scope. Also, the only piece of information an infobox will help present will be the population. The rest will probably be more of a distraction and a waste of space (especially since the only location map currently available is that of the entire country, and won't provide enough relevant information). Infoboxes also make the page layout really hard to manage, prevent using a relatively large lead image, and eat into potential image placement space below. --Paul_012 (talk) 08:41, 24 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
