Make background sections mandatory

I believe background sections should be mandatory. Readers viewing a page may be confused or interested on what the logo or identity is for, the history of the company, what the company is known for, etc. After all, we're an encyclopedia. I think readers should be informed of what the logo is made for.

I think, if information is available on the internet, it should be included in the background section. Otherwise, something like "X is an American film production company founded by Y" should be acceptable, but only if there's no information available on the internet. What do you think?

Support

1. Support, although there are companies where I couldn't find enough information about the company enough to know who founded it (this usually goes to legitimate logos without a known source). | (lets play football) 19:36, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

   If there's no information on that, i think something like "X is an American film production company" would do. But only if there's no information Logoarto (talk) 11:22, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

3. Support but also taking TVB's point into consideration. Otherwise solid idea. Compooper (talk) 21:04, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

   Same here. Gilby1385 (talk) 12:55, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

4. Support The main reason I say this is because a lot of the tv station backgrounds are almost completely empty. User:INS345
