Documentation

To use this template, simply copy this code into your page and enter the relevant parameters:

{{ProjectInfoBox
|project title=
|image=
|status=
|date=
|initiator=
|team=
|materials=
|tools=
|software=
|cost=
}}

Default values for some parameters exist, but will only be used if the entire line is omitted. For example, |image= leads to no image being displayed while not entering the image parameter at all will lead to the default image (light bulb) being displayed. Please make use of the "Show preview" button and it should be clear.

If you had/have helpers with your project, you can use the team value to give them credit. Try using Template:HelpNeeded here to find collaborators! If you delete it or leave it empty, that field is not displayed at all. The software value behaves this way as well since many projects are realized with tools and materials but not all are prepared on a computer.

Bugs/Future Development

  • tools and materials could be made optional as well, but only if there is a way to display the default text for empty parameters and nothing for deleted ones - would be a pity to lose that reminder of linking other pages!
  • selection instead of free text: status= planned/in progress/finished?
