Thanks for adding it back in; it does seem rather disruptive to just wholesale remove it. My interpretation of the RfC was that classical composers - e.g. Beethoven - don't need infoboxes, but that there was no consensus one way or another for contemporary (or living?) composers. — HelloAnnyong(say whaaat?!)13:00, 27 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's certainly true that many of the arguments made against infoboxes for composers (uncertain birth dates; no-longer recognised countries of birth, etc - not that I agree that they preclude infoboxes) do not apply to contemporary composers.
