We still need to get this approved. Forum:New_Portable_Infoboxes

Go discuss. User_talk:Anonymoustyd/template_testing

ill start out changing the infoboxes and putting them on my test wiki. pls talk on talk page if u h8. or just to discuss. lol or maybe use the forum. i dont really wanna go too off topic on the forum post tho.

decide whether to use stacked or classic layout.
- classic has been decided.
check for caption parameters.
ill combine some infoboxes that wont be too different. when and if approved and converted, redirect. see sections.
spoiler templates wont show on mobile. this applies to both the portable and current infoboxes. we should probably do something about this. we'll need to edit the spoiler parts while checking for captions. we could make a new parameter for all spoilers to go under, sacrificing organization. or maybe we shouldn't include spoilers in infoboxes and we could just link to a section with a spoiler template on a page instead? pls discuss :D
- lol it took way too long for me to realize we use the smaller spoilers in infoboxes. so its more ok now :P

btw since we use '''bold like this''' in our infoboxes, the auto converter cant change the templates alone. when changing to portable make sure ''' is gone in the headers. theres probably some other stuff that should be checked but ill remember later. or maybe I wont :P

unless noted below, all infoboxes here can be copied from my test wiki for use right now (likely but not impossible without breaking anything on this wiki), since the templates still have their old parameters (that is, extra stuff I suggested such as splitting prequels and sequels havent been included yet). also, theyre using normal layout, not stacked. and of course, captions can be checked later.

any docs there are also ready as well (unless ive mixed ones up there but I think you can tell if its not ready. ive checked like twice tho for each one.)

note that ive hidden some redundant parameters in the doc. for example MAwards isn't on the doc because its just a capitalized version of mawards. all parameters from current templates will still work.

having some problems with jam infobox because of the "full" paramaters (imagefull, etc), will talk about that later.

these templates will show up in the visualeditor and will definitely be confusing to edit with it. nothing much I can do, I just wanted to point out that at least they will show up lol :P

If you disagree pls add on at talk page.

decide whether to make prequel/sequel a side by side. if yes then all infoboxes will have to be changed and caption is already enough work for now. or if not then i guess we can do both, that should be fine too with only a little bit of extra work if people are up for it. I dunno lol. if this is a go then ill put the parameter details after creating them in the template
- just have sequel.
- final ninja pages will have to be checked and changed.
decide whether to have avatar from game and avatars in game side by side (only possible to do one spoiler/collapsible for both but better layout) or normal (like right now except one would be under another). since avatars from and in game are already separated, this will not require any changes to existing infobox coding on articles
- keep
decide whether to have dates for different platforms side by side. if side by side is the decision, then there will have to be more changes to wikitext on existing pages.
- same
