Help:Infoboxes

Since you're here, you evidentially need help using infoboxes.

Fortunately, this might be able to help, unless it doesn't.

Using the Code
To use the code for an infobox, you need to decide which infobox you will be using.

Begin with two brackets: "{{", and then the name of the template for the infobox being used. Remember to leave out the underscores included in the link to the template.

For example, the first line of the formatting used for the PPC Staff infobox:

{{Infobox PPC Staff

Next, you will fill out the information in the Infobox.

After a "|" (which is located on the \ key), put one space and then the name for that section. The name is the word or phrase in {{{these}}} on the template - not necessarily the bold word or phrase next to it. Remember to include a line for the grey box at the top of the template, usually saying {{{Name}}}. Space, and then put an = sign, with the information needed. If it is not applicable, leave it blank. Do not delete sections! Even if you think you don't need them. The template will include anything you delete in there anyway, with the exception that it adds in the curly brackets, too, and it looks awful. Just leave it blank.

Rinse and Repeat until you have something like the following, leaving out the extra lines:

| Name 	         = Radix


 * Image          =


 * Caption        = Agent Radix


 * Age            =


 * Species        = Human


 * Home Continuum = Real World


 * Department     = DIA


 * Position       =


 * Response Center =

Do not forget the ending brackets for this, or it will end up borked.

{{blockquote|text=}}}}

Alternate Method
Alternately, you could always copy and paste the code for the infobox you plan to use. You can find the templates linked from here: Template:Infobox and here: Category:Templates.

Just remember to change the information.
