Introduction[[edit source]]
Simple request. A think an Infobox that covers holidays and celebrations would be a handy little feature.
I envision it containing the following fields (apart from the obvious ones):
- Origin = Where did it originate?
- Celebrated by = What planets is it celebrated on?
- Faith = What religion is it associated with (if applicable)?
- Relevant figures = e.g. Jesus Christ, Santa Claus, Easter Bunny

I don't know that this wouldn't be covered by the Event infobox?… --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 19:35, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Oh? I'm getting "Events and exhibitions" and "Events and conflicts" in my search; the former is for real world exhibits, and the latter seems to be made more specifically for wars and battles. WaltK ☎ 20:09, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- {{Infobox Event or Exhibition}} says that the older versions are deprecated but still around. But that doesn't solve the issue Scrooge, because Template:Infobox Event/doc notes that it's for real world events. (tbc, I don't think we need a thread for this, I think this is something you can just create, and then if people have an issue with it later then it can be discussed. Under the "be bold" section of T:BOUND. But now that the thread is opened...) Najawin ☎ 20:40, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- I was thinking of "Events and conflicts" (or as it is in my head, plainly "the in-universe one"). --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 21:36, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Are Epsilon and I really so interchangeable? Oh, I'll take it as a compliment. They're just templates, anyone can create a template. To do so properly might take some trial and error if you're not experienced with that area of mediawiki, but it's not the hardest thing in the world. (Especially since we have enough that you can re-use a lot of code that's lying around.) But see, for instance, {{Infobox Match}} which is for IU sports matches, and was made by User:66 Seconds. Normal enough thing to do. Najawin ☎ 22:01, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
