:Category:Pages using infobox person with multiple spouses

This category is populated by articles transcluding {{tl|Infobox person}} with potentially multiple people after the | spouse = parameter.

The template code for Infobox person contains logic to dynamically change the label to display "Spouse" if there is only one person listed or "Spouses" if multiple people are listed (such as using any of the typical list templates like Plainlist or Unbulleted list).

If the template logic is unable to determine a singular or plural set, the label will display as "Spouse(s)" to remain neutral.

• Example: the logic for commas assumes a comma separates two distinct people when it could instead just be part of a person's legal name (e.g., a comma before the suffix Jr. or Sr., as in "Alex Aardvark, Jr.").

A less graceful workaround to force the template to recognize the singular person can include adding the template {{tl|Force singular}} after the name.
