So, you've been aligning columns in infoboxes, which is fine, and can help keep things tidy and easier to read, but why have you aligned them so far away from the field names? That actually makes it harder to read, since the parameter is so far away from the name. It's best if aligning columns to leave one blank space between the "=" sign and the longest field name -- and if there's an espacially long field name, align to the next longest and let that one field be different. Neat and tidy is fine, but not at the expense of ease of reading for the editor. Thanks, BMK ( talk) 23:10, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
