Forums: Helping Hand > Can we get a Building infobox?
Use the following template for a nicely presented post:

I just feel a building infobox would be helpful as we currently use the Location infobox and its not quite right.
Titles for this proped box include (but are not limited to)
- Name of Building
- Type of building (e.g. tavern, store, house, tower, etc)
- Location
- Owner
- Services provided
- Notable Inhabitants
- Volo's ratings (if applicable for taverns)
anyone else like this idea??
or can you think of more titles we would need?Thomaslove92 23:01, January 31, 2012 (UTC)
Even though I would have to redo all my pages... I actually agree :) Plus, I have been waiting for someone to say... exports... ale... why are they exporting ale and ruler... why does the inn have a ruler!

I've created a sandbox template over at User:Cronje/Template:Sandbox and an example of its use at User:Cronje/Sandbox for a first draft of a working template. The coloring will probably change, as yellow isn't great, but overall I think it's okay. Let me know what you think!
That draft looks pretty good to me, thanks for setting that up.

Done. I've also rearranged the rows so that occupants is grouped with owner.
Cronje, Do you think it is okay to use your template... I really like it and would love to change all my pages, but I just want to make sure the Admins are on board..., before I go infoboxing away :)

Excellent Cronje, it looks really good, thanks for making this happen.
Really appreciate it.
edit: Are you going to make it look more like the other info boxes?Thomaslove92 00:50, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
Looking at the code to several of the more popular infoboxes (Template:Person, Template:Book, Template:Spell, none of them use the exact same formatting. I could do away with the rounded edges to make it more standard, if you like. I'd also like suggestions for the color; I really don't like the yellow and am not sure why I used it in the first place. :P
After that, I'll copy it over to a proper (non-user subpage) template page.
