Template talk:Infobox criminal

message: Hi! The residence parameter doesn't seem to work.
The Infobox for:

Outputs the infobox without the residence param:
Additionally, in preview mode the error: Warning: Page using Template:Infobox person with unknown parameter "residence" (this message is shown only in preview) is shown.
I'd appreciate anyone's thoughts on this? Am I using this incorrectly?
Thanks! -OXYLYPSE (talk) 08:09, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

text: I've spent some time today updating the articles that have been using the parameter, where the subject mentions the residence to be a prison or other place of incarceration I've moved the information to the imprisoned parameter. Mrbuskin (talk) 05:43, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: actually no... in some cases these parameters are used incorrectly, as in "24 January 1975–7 March 1998", which is of course an incorrectly formatted date range and should be fixed with "1975–1998" whenever you find it (the params are "beginyear" and "endyear", after all). So these parameters are formatted correctly as "xxxx–yyyy", for example: in the John Wayne Gacy infobox. P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 20:44, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

message: Greetings and felicitations.  In the fields
   | data4      = 
  | label6     = 
change to
  | label6     = 
and change the field "   | data4      = " to match this if necessary.  Basically, allow the name(s) this/these fields to be be made plural, as is possible with Template:Infobox person. —DocWatson42 (talk) 12:59, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done: please make your requested changes to the template's sandbox first; see WP:TESTCASES. The proposed code does not look like it will work. What happened to ? Are you proposing to remove it? What happened to the if statement and the "Penalty" label? – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:15, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:   I'm sorry—I just copied and pasted the code from Template:Infobox person, where the fields are: | label51    = Criminal charge(s) and | data51     = .  If I was familiar with how the markup worked, I wouldn't be making the request. :-/  How else can I help you make this change? —DocWatson42 (talk) 07:31, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you want to change  to  in two places in the sandbox, and then test the new parameter on the testcases page. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:15, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

thread_title: Lawyer/Attorney Parameter

message: In Template:Infobox person, the partner parameter is for "unmarried life partners in a domestic partnership", and is thus confusing. Can this be changed to something along the lines of "accomplice" or a similar term? ☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 17:12, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Change "Partner" parameter 

message: The guideline currently states that the "criminal_charges" parameter is "What the criminal is accused of (note that this is different from what the criminal is -- later -- convicted of)". Obviously the person can't be a criminal if they've only been accused of a crime, or even charged with one. However this Infobox seems to be restricted to use with notable convicted criminals. So this would imply that "criminal_charges" in this case relates solely to crimes they are currently wanted for (ie. which they have not been tried for yet).
I think there's a chance this parameter could be used to list charges that did not lead to convictions after being processed in the legal system (either because they were dropped, dismissed or otherwise found not-guilty). A short note could help clarify the correct use cases: 
"What the criminal is currently wanted to be tried for. Do not list charges that were dropped, dismissed or which went to trial and did not lead to conviction."
