Talk:Faith of the Seven

Infobox
I think the religion articles shouldn't use an infobox. This is the only one that has one. If you think about it, religions aren't really "active" or "defunct" in this story; basically every religion encountered is "active", and dead religions do not figure prominently into the story. As for Seasons they appear in, essentially every major religion has appeared (to greater or lesser degrees) in the first two seasons, out of a series projected to run for eight seasons. A few of the smaller religions only appear later on, i.e. Lord of Harmony, but otherwise, it largely just clutters up the page without imparting useful information. Religions are always present on a background level. As for the "Leader" category....most religions don't have a leader. The Faith of the Seven has the Most Devout, but the Old Gods have no clergy much less a leader, and the Drowned God has a clergy but no official leader. We don't know much about the hierarchical organization of the Lord of Light religion. As for "center", well that's tied closely to the "Leadership" point; every religion except for the Faith of the Seven doesn't really center on one locality, because they don't have a headquarters under one leader. Certainly, the Old Gods and Drowned God do not. And while I get the general idea that the Lord of Light religion stems from Asshai, we know little about it, and I hope later books in the series will give more background on it. Due to these reasons, the infobox isn't really adding anything, and isn't applicable to most of the religion articles, so I think we should stop using it.--The Dragon Demands (talk) 00:38, August 15, 2012 (UTC)
