Template talk:Infobox character
This infobox needs more sections but I don't know what else to put. Feel free to add more. Cheers, Chicken7 >talk 00:45, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
Should we get rid of the icon box now that we're starting to get images from N&B? The N64 portraits obviously won't be used for N&B, and the N&B portraits won't apply to the N64 games either. Jimbo-Jambo
- Do we know if characters will have "icons" or not in N&B yet? If they don't I guess it should be removed and the icons moved into a gallery section on the individual character pages.
- I just went and looked at some N&B videos on YouTube eg. this one, in it Mumbo talks and although due to it being recorded it's low quality it appears that Mumbo does have a talking icon.
- I wouldn't be surprised if they did, but the point is if they vary from game-to-game, which they no doubt will, then I don't think we should represent them as the portrait which appeared in a particular game. Jimbo-Jambo
- Shouldn't they just have their latest icon shown in the infobox and previous icons (if any) in a gallery section? The Light6 17:24, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

- I agree with The Light. Or we could even put all of them in the box, the old and new ones. But I want to discuss something else. Should we leave the box around it? Sadly it is with anti-aliasing (meaning there is no solid line, it just fades across) so it is very hard to make it look nice and get rid of the box.

Relatives?[edit]
I was going to go ahead and add a "Relatives" section to the Character template for characters who have siblings, parents, and such, but editing the actual template itself looks like quite the confusing task. Could someone help me, per chance, with adding a section with the character's name and how they are related to the character in the article? It would be greatly appreciated, guys!--Tiptup Jr. 23:19, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
Icons[edit]
We ought to change how that works, to be able to include all character icons instead of just one, to avoid single-image galleries. I'd do so myself, but I feel like I should get the "OK" first. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:43, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
- OK (go right ahead) ;) I'm not good with infobox design, so it would be cool if you knew. If we do add them, i think it should clarify which version. Results May Vary (talk) 22:03, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
- That's what rollover text is for. Now, to ensure that will work. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:19, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
