I think there is a lot of potential for this Wiki: But there needs to be a wider range of InfoBox’s. I am looking into making them soon, anyone help… User:joker1138

Species infobox

Alright, I think the main sort of infobox you're looking for is a race/species infobox, so here goes:
{{{image}}}
{{{species name}}}
Appearance / Type: {{{type}}}
Affiliated with: {{{affiliation}}}
Home Planet: {{{home planet}}}
Appearances: {{{appearances}}}
How about it? ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 18:35, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
good idea! the name of the "type" could use a little finessing, though, as it seems vague. an "affiliated with" (other species or individual, if any) would seem useful, though. --***Stardizzy*** 18:47, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
I was thinking about different colours, to make them all more distinguishable User:joker1138

Villain Infobox

Hows this for Villains! User:joker1138
{{{image}}}
{{{Villain name}}}
Race: {{{race}}}
Home Planet: {{{home planet}}}
Appearances: {{{appearances}}}
Actor: {{{actor}}}


I don't see the need for a villain template. in my opnion, they can just use the normal individal template. but re-occuring villains might perhaps get a special template of their own, if anyone favored that strongly. --***Stardizzy*** 19:51, 27 January 2007 (UTC)


New Templates

I will make a few….User:joker1138





Species

{{{image}}}
{{{Species name}}}
Appearance / Type: {{{type}}}
Affiliated with: {{{affiliation}}}
Home Planet: {{{home planet}}}
Appearances: {{{appearances}}}
Alright, I've had a go at fixing this species one (which Joker made originally), so tell me what you think. ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 19:29, 27 January 2007 (UTC)




Time Lords

I Like the first one better. hows this for the Time lords & Compainons, anyone who isnt a villain. also i think the 'Actor' line should be dropped User:Joker1138

{{{image}}}
{{{Time Lord / Traveler}}}
Race: {{{race}}}
Home Planet: {{{home planet}}}
Appearances: {{{appearances}}}
Affiliated with: {{{affiliation}}}
No, it'd be better if there was one for Time Lord and one for companion, however even witha villain infobox as well, some charactors cannot be easily told whether they are villains or not, and some may even be a combination (e.g the Master was both a villain and a Time Lord). ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 19:40, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Occupation should over-rule Race; this box could be for companions, so if they were evil in the end then villain replaces it, Species can have pages for races, say Time lords, but on the Masters page it should be Villain, im I making sense (??) User:joker1138
You'd make more sense if you were using correct grammar, but I think I get it: If the person was a villain, the villain box is used whether or not they were a companion. I still think that in many cases it's ambiguous, so that the individuals infobox should be used - plus, if you have all these boxes, what use is the individuals infobox? ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 19:53, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
grammar means something other than defenitions. well, anyhow, I think that Time Lords can use the normal kind of individual infobox. Companions and the Doctor get a special deal because of their importance in DOCTOR WHO and the fact that we generally know more about them. --***Stardizzy*** 19:58, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
