Spoilers are strongly policed here.
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.


As User:CzechOut was the only user who was implementing the new user box changes (to the Template:Infobox Comic), and was the only user here who knew how to make alterations to the new infobox, and as he's currently not been here for about 20 days. I'm proposing a revert to the old infobox to maintain the symmetry of the infoboxes and the overall design of this wiki.

I would like to say that while I had reservations concerning the design I was getting able to live with it.

However as he was the only user able to edit the new infobox (which still has some issues), I'm proposing we revert to the old infobox which at least most of the regular editors could alter / edit with relative ease, more easily than the various variables that the new infobox presented.

The old infobox was quite alright, it wasn't amazingly brilliant, but it got the job done, this new infbox has plenty of bells and whistles, but editing / altering the infobox is somewhat more than complicated and as CzechOut was the only user who could alter it it somewhat limits its edit-ability and ease of use amongst the wiki edit and user wise.

See also here it is a copy of a message I sent to Wikia Central Community Team to clarify some things prior to posting this discussion, both their response and my original message are there via the link on talk page.

Please feel free to discuss this, the vote sections are just for ease of clarity in the discussion. --Tangerineduel 14:45, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
