Forum:Infoboxes suggestion on articles

Forums: Village pump → Infoboxes suggestion on articles
(This topic is archived. Please do not edit this page!)

I'm asking in a suggestion, for future articles, and possibly a lot of other articles that others may come across something like this.

I'm using the example of the article from Black Widow found in Duskwood, which can be found at my newest Sandbox page.

What am I testing?

How well the {{Stub/Other}} fits. After the npcbox template or before.... And to be straight forward, they should be before the infoboxes. And now about the templates familiar to {{for}}...

My suggestion

The templates that some what use the same box style of the {{Stub/Other}} template should be placed BEFORE the templates of infoboxes, and in this case, {{npcbox}}. But what I'm also suggesting is the templates, that are like the {{for}} template should be placed AFTER the infoboxes. It just to make it neat really. Also if you place the templates like {{for}} before the infoboxes, the infoboxes will be pushed down.

For an example of the {{for}} placed BEFORE the {{npcbox}} see this revision. For an example of the {{for}} placed AFTER the {{npcbox}} see this revision.

Notice how the {{for}} template is on the same exact place but the {{npcbox}} template is shifted up and down. What I'm suggesting is to place those templates that are familiar to the {{for}} template to be placed after the infoboxes, so it wouldn't push those infoboxes down. --— SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 10:50, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

Semantically, disambiguation should be above article content, because it is not a part of the article; the change you propose is problematic e.g. on the mobile skin, where it would cause the disambiguation to appear between the infobox and the lead-in paragraph. — foxlit (talk) 22:28, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

Well, any other solution to fix the "block"? — SurafbrovWarcraft Wiki administrator T / C 22:35, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
