This template is intended as a meta-template, that is, : a template that's used when for constructing other templates. It's ''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 [[HelpWP:List of infoboxes]] and [[:Category:Infoboxtemplates]] for information on how to craft lists of prepared topic-specific infoboxes in general.
== Usage =={{tlf|Infobox}} is similar a meta-template: used to organise an actual <nowiki>{{Infobox sometopic}}</nowiki> template (like {{tl|navboxInfobox building}}, but with an additional distinction. Each row on the table can either be a "header", or it can have a label/data pair, or it can just be a data cell. These are mutually exclusive states so if you define a row to be both a header and a label/data pair, the label/data pair is overridden).
Note that if you want to insert an image elsewhere other than the top of the infoboxFor <code><nowiki>[[Template:Infobox sometopic]]</nowiki></code>, or insert other "freeform" datatemplate code then looks like this, using a row with just a "data" field allows for that sort of thing.simplified:<pre>{{Infobox| name = {{{name|{{PAGENAME}}}}}| image = {{{image|}}}| caption1 = {{{caption|}}}}}}
| label1 =Former names| data1 ==Parameters==={{{former_names|}}}
| header2 ====View/discuss/edit links====;name : The template page name that the "view/discuss/edit" links should point to. You can use <nowiki>{{subst:PAGENAME}}</nowiki>. If this parameter is omitted the view/discuss/edit links will not be displayed.General information

If this is set to "yes", this subbox should be titled but have no name parameter. This parameter is empty by default, set to "yes" to activate it.

Leave empty by default or set to "yes" to activate it.
There are two different ways to put a title on an infobox. One contains the title inside the infobox's border, the other puts it on top as a caption. You can use both of them together if you like, or just one or the other, or even neither (though this is not recommended).;title : Text to put in the caption over top of the table.;above : Text to put within the uppermost cell of the table.== Content parameters ==
====Optional content=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 as a caption it on top of the table. You can use both of them together if you like, or just one or the other, or even neither (though this is not recommended):
; image title : An image Text to display at put in the caption over the top of the templatetable (or as section header before the whole content of this table, if this is a child infobox). Use full image syntax, for example <nowiki>For [[ImageWikipedia:example.pngManual of Style/Accessibility#Tables|200pxaccessibility reasons]]</nowiki>. Image , this is centered by defaultthe most recommended alternative.;caption above : Text to put underneath within the uppermost cell of the imagetable.;headersubheader(n) : Text to use as a header in row n.;label(n): Text to use as a label in row n.;data(n): Text to display as data in row n.;additional title fields which fit below: Text to put in the bottom cell. The bottom cell is intended for footnotes, see-also{{{title}}} and {{{above}}}, and other such informationbut before images.
====Optional CSS styling====Examples:
;bodystyle : Applies to the infobox table as a whole{{Infobox | name = Infobox/doc;titlestyle : Applies only to the | title = Text in caption. Adding a background color is usually inadvisable since the text is rendered "outside" over infobox | subheader = Subheader of the infobox.;abovestyle : Applies only to | header = (the "above" cell at rest of the top. The default infobox goes here)}}<pre style has font-size:large; since this cell is usually used for a title, if you want to use the above cell for regular-sized text include ="font-sizeoverflow:medium;auto" in the abovestyle.>{{Infobox;imagestyle | name = {{subst: Applies to the cell the image is PAGENAME}} | title = Text in. This includes the text of the image caption, but you should set text properties with captionstyle instead over infobox | subheader = Subheader of imagestyle in case the caption is moved out of this cell in the future.infobox;captionstyle : Applies to | header = (the text rest of the image caption.infobox goes here);headerstyle : Applies to all header cells}};labelstyle : Applies to all label cells;datastyle : Applies to all data cells;belowstyle : Applies only to the below cell</pre>{{clear}}
{{Infobox | name =Infobox/doc | above =Text in uppermost cell of infobox | subheader =Subheader of the infobox | subheader2 = Microformats Second subheader of the infobox | header =(the rest of the infobox goes here)}}<pre style="overflow:auto">{{Infobox | name ={{subst:PAGENAME}} | above =Text in uppermost cell of infobox | subheader = Subheader of the infobox | subheader2 = Second subheader of the infobox | header = (the rest of the infobox goes here)}}</pre>{{clear}}
;bodyclass: This parameter is inserted into the "class" attribute for the infobox as a whole=== Illustration images ===;classimage(n): This parameter is inserted into the "class" attribute for images to display at the data cell top of the specified rowtemplate. If there's no data cell it has no effectUse full image syntax, for example <nowiki>[[File:example. ;titleclasspng|200px|alt=Example alt text]]</nowiki>. Image is centered by default. See [[WP: This parameter is inserted into the "class" attribute ALT]] for the infobox's title captionmore on alt text.;aboveclasscaption(n) : This parameter is inserted into the "class" attribute for Text to put underneath the infobox's above cellimages.
This template supports the addition of microformat information=== Main data ===; header(n) : Text to use as a header in row n. This is done by adding "class" attributes ; label(n) : Text to various use as a label in row n.; data cells, indicating what kind of information is contained within(n) : Text to display as data in row n. To flag an infobox as containing hCard information, for example, add the following parameter:
<pre>Note: for any given value for (n), not all combinations of parameters are permitted. The presence of a {{para|bodyclass= vcard</pre>header''(n)''}} will cause the corresponding {{para|data''(n)''}} (and {{para|rowclass''(n)''}} {{para|label''(n)''}}, see below) to be ignored; the absence of a {{para|data''(n)''}} will cause the corresponding {{para|label''(n)''}} to be ignored. Valid combinations for any single row are:
And for each row containing a * {{para|class''(n)''}} {{para|header''(n)''}}* {{para|rowclass''(n)''}} {{para|class''(n)''}} {{para|data cell that's part of the vcard, add a corresponding '(n)''}}* {{para|rowclass''(n)''}} {{para|label''(n)''}} {{para|class parameter:''(n)''}} {{para|data''(n)''}}
<pre>See the rendering of header4, label4, and data4 in the [[#Examples|class1= fn|class2= org|class3= tel</pre>Examples]] section below.
And so forth==== Number ranges ====To allow flexibility when the layout of an infobox is changed, it may be helpful when developing an infobox to use non-contiguous numbers for header and label/data rows. "above" and "title" Parameters for new rows can also then be given classes, since these are usually used inserted in future without having to display the name of the subject of the infoboxrenumber existing parameters.For example:
See [[Wikipedia<pre style="overflow:WikiProject Microformats]] for more information on adding microformat information to Wikipedia, and [http://microformats.org/wikiauto"> | header3 = Section 1 | label5 = Label A | data5 = Data A | label7 = Label C | data7 = Data C | header10 = Section 2 | label12 = Label D | data12 = Data D</Main_Page microformats.org] for more information on microformats in general.pre>{{clear}}
===Making fields optional===It is also possible to automatically renumber parameter names by using [[User:Frietjes/infoboxgap.js]] or [[Module:IncrementParams]].
==== Making data fields optional ====
A row with a label but no data is not displayed. This allows for the easy creation of optional infobox content rows. To make a row optional use a parameter that defaults to an empty string, like so:
<prestyle="overflow:auto"> | label5 = Population | data5 = {{{population|}}}</pre>{{clear}}
This way if an article doesn't define the population parameter in its infobox the row won't be displayed.
For more complex fields with pre-formated formatted contents that would still be present even if the parameter wasn't set, you can wrap it all in an "#if" statement to make the whole thing vanish when the parameter is not used. ExampleFor instance, the "#if" statement in the following example reads "#if:the parameter ''mass'' has been supplied |then display it, followed by 'kg'":
<prestyle="overflow:auto"> | label6 = Mass | data6 = {{#if: {{{mass|}}} | {{{mass}}} kg}}</pre>{{clear}}
You can make headers optional in a similar way. If you want a header to appear only For more on #if one or more of the data fields that fall under it are filled, one could use the following pattern as an example of how to do itsee [[meta:ParserFunctions##if:|here]].
==== Hiding headers when all data fields are hidden ====You can also make headers optional in a similar way. Consider this example:{{Infobox | title = Example of an undesirable header | header1 = Undesirable header | label2 = Item 1 | data2 = | label3 = Item 2 | data3 = | label4 = Item 3 | data4 = | header5 = Static header | label6 = Static item | data6 = Static value}}<prestyle="overflow:auto">
{{Infobox
| name = {{subst:PAGENAME}} | title = Example of an optional undesirable header | header1 = {{#if: {{{item_one|}}}{{{item_two|}}}{{{item_three|}}} | Optional Undesirable header }} | label2 = Item One1 | data2 = {{{item_one|}}} | label3 = Item Two2 | data3 = {{{item_two|}}} | label4 = Item Three3 | data4 = | header5 = Static header | data4 label6 = {{{item_threeStatic item |}}} data6 = Static value
}}
</pre>{{clear}}
header1 will be shown If you want the first header to appear only if any of item_one, item_two, one or item_three is defined. If none more of the three parameters data fields that fall under it are defined filled, one could use the header won't be shown.following pattern as an example of how to do it:
The trick to this is that the {{Infobox | title = Example of an optional header | header1 = {{ #if: {{{item1|}}}{{{item2|}}}{{{item3|}}} | Optional header }} | label2 = Item 1 | data2 = {{{item1|}}} | label3 = Item 2 | data3 = {{{item2|}}} | label4 = Item 3 | data4 = {{{item3|}}} | header5 = Static header | label6 = Static item | data6 = Static value}}<source lang="moin"ifstyle="overflow:auto" returns false only if there is nothing whatsoever in the conditional section, so only if all three >{{Infobox | title = Example of item_one, item_two and item_three are undefined will the an optional header | header1 = {{ #if statement fail.: {{{item1|}}}{{{item2|}}}{{{item3|}}} | Optional header }} | label2 = Item 1 | data2 = {{{item1|}}} | label3 = Item 2 | data3 = {{{item2|}}} | label4 = Item 3 | data4 = {{{item3|}}} | header5 = Static header | label6 = Static item | data6 = Static value}}</source>{{clear}}
===Examples===header1 will be shown if any of item1, item2, or item3 is defined. If none of the three parameters are defined the header won't be shown and no empty row appears before the next static content. The trick to this is that the <code>#if</code> returns false only if there is nothing whatsoever in the conditional section, so only if all three of item1, item2 and item3 are undefined will the if statement fail.
Note that such trick may be sometimes very complex to test if there are many data items whose value depends on complex tests (or when a data row is generated by a recursive invokation of this template as a [[#Subboxes|subbox]]). Ideally, the Lua module supporting this template should now support a new way to make each header row autohideable by detecting if there is at least one non-empty data row after that header row (a parameter like {{Infoboxpara| name = Infoboxautohide header1 | yes}}, for example, would remove the need to perform the <code>#if</doc| bodystyle = | titlestyle = | imagestyle = | captionstyle = | headerstyle = | labelstyle = code> test so that we can just to define {{para| datastyle = header1 | belowstyle = Optional header}}),
| title = Test Infobox== Footer ===; below : Text to put in the bottom cell. The bottom cell is intended for footnotes, see-also, and other such information.
| image = [[Image:example.png|200px]]| caption = Caption for example.pngPresentation parameters ==
| header1 = Header defined alone| label1 == Italic titles === | data1 = Titles of articles with infoboxes may be made italic, in line with [[WP:ITALICTITLE]], by passing the <code>italic title</code> parameter.
* Turn on italic titles by passing {{para| header2 = italic title|<nowiki>{{{italic title|}}}</nowiki>}} from the infobox.* Turn off by default (notably because only Latin script may be safely rendered in this style and italic may be needed to distinguish foreign language from local English language only in that script, but would be difficult to read for other scripts) but allow some instances to be made italic by passing {{para| label2 = Label defined aloneitalic title|<nowiki>{{{italic title|no}}}</nowiki>}}| data2 = * Do not make any titles italic by not passing the parameter at all.

| header5 =| label5 = Label and This template supports the addition of microformat information. This is done by adding "class" attributes to various data defined (label)| data5 = Label and data defined (data)cells, indicating what kind of information is contained within. Multiple class names may be specified, separated by spaces, some of them being used as selectors for custom styling according to a project policy or to the skin selected in user preferences, others beig used for microformats.
| below = Below text}}To flag an infobox as containing [[hCard]] information, for example, add the following parameter:
<prestyle="overflow:auto">{{Infobox | name bodyclass = Infoboxvcard</docpre>{{clear}}
| title = Test InfoboxAnd for each row containing a data cell that's part of the vcard, add a corresponding class parameter:
<pre style="overflow:auto"> | image class1 = [[Image:example.pngfn |200px]]class2 = org | caption class3 = Caption for example.pngtel</pre>{{clear}}
| header1 = Header defined alone| label1 = | data1 = ...and so forth. "above" and "title" can also be given classes, since these are usually used to display the name of the subject of the infobox.
| header2 = | label2 = Label defined alone| data2 = See [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Microformats]] for more information on adding microformat information to Wikipedia, and [[microformat]] for more information on microformats in general.
| header3 = | label3 = Examples == | data3 = Data Notice how the row doesn't appear in the displayed infobox when a '''label''' is defined without an accompanying '''data''' cell, and how all of them are displayed when a '''header''' is defined aloneon the same row as a '''data''' cell. Also notice that '''subheaders''' are not bold by default like the '''headers''' used to split the main data section, because this role is meant to be for the '''above''' cell :
| header4 = All three defined (header){{Infobox | label4 name = All three defined (label)Infobox/doc | data4 bodystyle = All three defined (data)
| header5 titlestyle = | label5 abovestyle = Label and data defined (label)background:#cfc; | data5 subheaderstyle = |title = Label and data defined (data)Test Infobox |above = Above text |subheader = Subheader above image |subheader2 = Second subheader
| below imagestyle = |captionstyle = |image = Below [[File:Example-serious.jpg|200px|alt=Example alt text]]}}</pre> |caption = Caption displayed below File:Example-serious.jpg

== Embedding ==<!--Linked from [[Template:Subinfobox bodystyle/doc]]-->One infobox template can be embedded into another using the {{para|child}} parameter or the {{para|embed}} parameter. This feature can be used to create a modular infobox, or to create better-defined logical sections. Long ago, it was necessary to use embedding in order to create infoboxes with more than 99 rows; but nowadays there's no limit to the number of rows that can be defined in a single instance of <code><nowiki>{{infobox}}</nowiki><br clear="all"/code>.
{{Infobox | title =Top level title | data1 =Full blank declaration{{Infobox | decat =yes | child =yes | title = First subsection | label1= Label 1.1 | data1 = Data 1.1 }} | data2 = {{Infobox | decat = yes | child = yes |title = Second subsection | label1= Label 2.1 | data1 = Data 2.1 }} | belowstyle = | below = Below text}}<pre style="overflow:auto">{{Infobox | title = Top level title | data1 = {{Infobox | decat = yes | child = yes | title = First subsection | label1= Label 1.1 | data1 = Data 1.1 }} | data2 = {{Infobox | decat = yes | child = yes |title = Second subsection | label1= Label 2.1 | data1 = Data 2.1 }} | belowstyle = | below = Below text}}</pre>{{clear}}
(Note: , in the examples above, the template currently handles up to 40 rowschild infobox is placed in a <code>data</code> field, only 20 not a <code>header</code> field. Notice that the section subheadings are included here since infoboxes larger than that will be relatively rarenot in bold font if bolding is not explicitly specified. Just extend To obtain bold section headings, place the numbering as needed.child infobox in a '''header''' field (but not in a '''label''' field because it would not be displayed!), either using

Note that omitting the {{para| header1 = | label1 = | data1 = title}} parameter, and not including any text preceding the embedded infobox, may result in spurious blank table rows, creating gaps in the visual presentation.
| header2 = | label2 = | data2 = [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Infoboxes/embed]] includes some links to Wikipedia articles which include infoboxes embedded within other infoboxes.
| header3 == Subboxes == An alternative method for embedding is to use {{para| label3 = subbox| data3 = yes}}, which removes the outer border from the infobox, but preserves the interior structure. One feature of this approach is that the parent and child boxes need not have the same structure, and the label and data fields are not aligned between the parent and child boxes because they are not in the same parent table.
{{Infobox | headerstyle = background-color:#eee; | labelstyle = background-color:#eee; | header1 = Main 1 | header2 = Main 2 | data3 = {{Infobox | subbox = yes | headerstyle = background-color:#ccc; | labelstyle = background-color:#ddd; | header1 = Sub 3-1 | header2 = Sub 3-2 | label3 = Label 3-3 | data3 = Data 3-3 }} | data4 = {{Infobox | subbox = yes | labelstyle = background-color:#ccc; | label1 = Label 4-1 | data1 = Data 4-1 }} | label5 = Label 5 | data5 = Data 5 | header6 = Main 6}}<source lang="sass" style="overflow:auto">{{Infobox | header4 headerstyle = background-color:#eee; | label4 labelstyle = background-color:#eee; | header1 = Main 1 | header2 = Main 2 | data3 = {{Infobox | subbox = yes | headerstyle = background-color:#ccc; | labelstyle = background-color:#ddd; | header1 = Sub 3-1 | header2 = Sub 3-2 | label3 = Label 3-3 | data3 = Data 3-3 }} | data4 = {{Infobox | subbox = yes | labelstyle = background-color:#ccc; | label1 = Label 4-1 | data1 = Data 4-1 }} | label5 = Label 5 | data5 = Data 5 | header6 = Main 6}}</source>{{clear}}
Similar embedding techniques may be used within content parameters of some other templates generating tables (such as [[:Template:Sidebar| header5 = | label5 = | data5 = Sidebar]]) :
{{Sidebar | navbar = off | headingstyle = background-color:#eee; | heading1 = Heading 1 | heading2 = Heading 2 | content3 = {{Infobox | subbox = yes | headerstyle = background-color:#ccc; | labelstyle = background-color:#ddd; | header1 = Sub 3-1 | header2 = Sub 3-2 | label3 = Label 3-3 | data3 = Data 3-3 }} | content4 = {{Infobox | subbox = yes | header6 labelstyle = background-color:#ccc; | label1 = Label 4-1 | label6 data1 = Data 4-1 }} | data6 heading5 = Heading 5}}<source lang="sass" style="overflow:auto">{{Sidebar | navbar = off | headingstyle = background-color:#eee; | heading1 = Heading 1 | heading2 = Heading 2 | content3 = {{Infobox | subbox = yes | headerstyle = background-color:#ccc; | labelstyle = background-color:#ddd; | header1 = Sub 3-1 | header2 = Sub 3-2 | label3 = Label 3-3 | data3 = Data 3-3 }} | content4 = {{Infobox | subbox = yes | labelstyle = background-color:#ccc; | label1 = Label 4-1 | data1 = Data 4-1 }} | heading5 = Heading 5}}</source>{{clear}}
| header7 = | label7 = | data7 = Note that the default padding of the parent data cell containing each subbox is still visible, so the subboxes are slightly narrower than the parent box and there's a higher vertical spacing between standard cells of the parent box than between cells of distinct subboxes.
| header8 == Controlling line-breaking in embedded bulletless lists == Template {{tlx| label8 = nbsp}} may be used with {{tlx|wbr}} and {{tlx|nowrap}} to control line-breaking in bulletless lists embedded in infoboxes (e.g. cast list in {{tlx| data8 = Infobox film}}), to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See [[Template:Wbr/doc#Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes]] for details.
| header9 = | label9 = Full blank syntax == | data9 = (Note: there is no limit to the number of possible rows; only 20 are given below since infoboxes larger than that will be relatively rare. Just extend the numbering as needed. The microformat "class" parameters are also omitted as they are not commonly used.)

It may not work with other MediaWikis. [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Transwiki| data20 =  | below = }}</pre>WikiProject Transwiki]] has a version of this template that has been modified to work on other MediaWikis.
