I don't mean specifically you, or specifically this suggestion. But usually when someone seems to make one, One Piece is often used as an example for what the suggestion is based off of, as if no other wikis exist. It's frustrating to watch a wiki with its own identity slowing look like every other wiki.

The story our wiki is centered around has a cast comprised almost completely of military personnel. Where the uniform is exactly alike for almost all military branches. I'm not saying it shouldn't be mentioned somewhere, but posting a full body image of it on each characters' page simply because they have a different pose from the next person is redundant; regardless of whether the person viewing it is familiar with the subject of the wiki or not.

As you said it is your own personal choice, my personal choice/belief is that the clothing is irrelevant. Why? Because they're fictional characters that most of the time never change outfits unless for a special occasion or unforeseen event usually out of their control. We have image galleries that suit that need, so I don't see the desire to crowd the infobox with unnecessary stuff.

Following your example, if I saw that I would assume the show/manga focuses on a school setting since the editors found it worthwhile to mention it on the character's page. From there I would already have a general idea of what the uniform looked like, because Japanese styled or inspired uniforms are practically the same regardless of who created the show/manga; with only the "major" difference being the color choice for the uniform. None of which would say anything about the character's personality because wearing the uniform is mandatory and out of their control.
