Help with template
Hello I'm admin of Polish Mc Wiki and I tried to copy/paste English templates and modules, so they will work the same but I don't know if I mmessed something up or these pages work only with eng wiki, but I would really appreciate if you could help me do this. First of all - what pages and CSSes do I need to make it work? Matik7 (talk) 09:41, 10 May 2015 (UTC)


 * From what I can tell, you need to update your css from MediaWiki:Common.css (just use and search "Template:Infobox", and copy everything below until you reach "Template:Navbox" ), and your version of infobox row is outdated. – KnightMiner  t/c 23:11, 10 May 2015 (UTC)

New invimage behaviour suggestion?
While all pages that directly use this infobox have the ability to use the inventory image feature, I believe the feature should be changed to being optional instead. Because it just came up on Discord that whenever this template is used directly without the invimage parameter specified, it will automatically infer an image filename for File:Grid .png, which becomes a wanted page, unless invimage=none is specifically set. Although this feature is used for specific implementations like item and block, which do always require an inventory image, the image itself basically has nothing to do with this generic infobox template.

So I suggest to change this template such that it by default assumes, and specific implementations like item and block that do need one, specifically override this to the behaviour as if they were themselves by default assuming or something similar. Personally I don't know Lua so I can't suggest changes to the module, and I don't know how this suggestion would work if at all, and there may be other suggestions that would have a similar effect to solving the undesired wanted pages from listing, but this is just my 2cents and anyone else's input is also very appreciated. – Jack McKalling 12:15, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
