This template is intended as a meta template: a template used for constructing other templates. '''Note''': In general, it is not meant for use directly in an article, but can be used on a one-off basis if required. [[Help:Infobox]] contains an introduction about the recommended content and design of infoboxes; [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Infoboxes]] contains additional style guidelines. See [[WP:List of infoboxes]] and [[:Category:Infobox templates]] for lists of prepared topic-specific infoboxes. | |||
== Usage == | |||
{{tlf|Infobox}} is a meta-template: used to organise an actual <nowiki>{{Infobox sometopic}}</nowiki> template (like {{tl|Infobox building}}). | |||
For <code><nowiki>[[Template:Infobox sometopic]]</nowiki></code>, template code then looks like this, simplified: | |||
<pre> | |||
{{Infobox | |||
| name = {{{name|{{PAGENAME}}}}} | |||
| image = {{{image|}}} | |||
| caption1 = {{{caption|}}} | |||
| label1 = Former names | |||
| data1 = {{{former_names|}}} | |||
= | | header2 = General information | ||
| label3 = Status | |||
| data3 = {{{status|}}} | |||
... <!-- etc. --> | |||
}} | |||
</pre> | |||
== Content parameters == | |||
=== Title === | |||
There are two different ways to put a title on an infobox. One contains the title inside the infobox's border in the uppermost cell of the table, the other puts it as a caption on top of the table. You can use them both together, or just one or the other, or neither (though this is not recommended): | |||
; title : Text to put in the caption over the top of the table (or as section header before the whole content of this table, if this is a child infobox). For [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility#Tables|accessibility reasons]], this is the most recommended alternative. | |||
; above : Text to put within the uppermost cell of the table. | |||
; subheader(n) : additional title fields which fit below {{{title}}} and {{{above}}}, but before images. | |||
Examples: | |||
{{Infobox | |||
| name = Infobox/doc | |||
| title = Text in caption over infobox | |||
| subheader = Subheader of the infobox | |||

This template is intended as a meta template: a template used for constructing other templates. Note: In general, it is not meant for use directly in an article, but can be used on a one-off basis if required. Help:Infobox contains an introduction about the recommended content and design of infoboxes; Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Infoboxes contains additional style guidelines. See WP:List of infoboxes and Category:Infobox templates for lists of prepared topic-specific infoboxes.
