I have noticed a problem with the infoboxes on some Big Finish audio pages, though it may be happening on other pages too. For example on [[The Bride of Peladon (audio story)]] the infobox shows the text <nowiki> [[file:Dw104_the_bride_of_peladon_-_web_-_big.jpg

I have noticed a problem with the infoboxes on some Big Finish audio pages, though it may be happening on other pages too. For example on The Bride of Peladon (audio story) the infobox shows the text [[file:Dw104_the_bride_of_peladon_-_web_-_big.jpg Cover Art by Alex Mallinson|250px]] instead of a picture. I can get it to display the picture by changing image=Dw104_the_bride_of_peladon_-_web_-_big.jpg
Cover Art by Alex Mallinson| to image= [[file:Dw104_the_bride_of_peladon_-_web_-_big.jpg]]<br />Cover Art by [[Alex Mallinson]]|, but this leaves the text [[file: above the pic and 250px]] after Cover Art by [[Alex Mallinson. Americanwhofan talk to me 23:48, February 26, 2012 (UTC)

Please read forum:Infobox images now more automated. All that cover art information should never have been put in the "image" variable. The new way of doing infoboxes (which isn't all that new, in terms of wiki code development, generally) is that you use just the simple filename. I'm continuing to do cleanup rounds for these few odd stragglers like The Bride of Peladon. It looks like you found this page before the bot run to correct its individualised problem. In this case, the correct nomenclature is:

image=Dw104_the_bride_of_peladon_-_big.jpg
