:Best read over [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Composers#Biographical infoboxes]] ....That seen add one if you wish (best read the talk page first see if people have opted not to have one).....if not add one see if it gets reverted....if reverted bring it to the talk page for more input. --<span style="font-weight:bold;color:darkblue">[[User_talk:Moxy|Moxy]]</span> <span style="color:red">🍁</span> 00:15, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
== Guideline on not making the lead illegible? ==
Granted, this is common sense, but not everyone on WP has any of that. Case in point, [[Syrian_Civil_War]]. That info box is so wide that it takes up the entire width of the screen, and I have to scroll down *eight pages* before I get to the lead (on my browser, the only part of the lead that's visible to the left of the info box is the word "The"). I tried moving the first paragraph of the lead up before the info box, but was reverted because that's not how it's supposed to be done. I tried putting <nowiki>{{clear}}</nowiki> after the infobox, but was reverted because that's not how it's supposed to be done. Just now I collapsed it, but I expect that well be reverted too, because this guideline doesn't make explicit allowance for doing that. Meanwhile, there are quite a few people complaining on the talk page about the lead being illegible, the worst they've ever seen for a major article, etc. Could we maybe have a few words of common sense in this guideline, for the idiots who don't have any? — [[User:Kwamikagami|kwami]] ([[User talk:Kwamikagami|talk]]) 19:12, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
