Fix for broken template

This template is currently broken but it can be fixed really easily. I'm aware that forums are currently not working but fixing this template would make the old forum pages look a bit cleaner. Additionally, it would actually make The Howling and the Timey-wimey detector work fully as their namespaces are still editable and otherwise working fine. I can see no reason as to why this forum shouldn't be restored and, as such, cannot see a downside to fixing this template. The template's page will need to be replaced with the following:

<div id="box" style="text-align:center;font-size:1.2em;font-family:'Lucida', 'Georgia', 'Times New Roman', serif;">''Please make sure that your topic name summarises your topic in a way that will be '''easily searchable.'''''<br /><div>
{{#switch:{{NAMESPACE}}
 
   | {{ns:114}}={{#tag:inputbox|
type=create
prefix=Theory:
preload=Template:Forumheader/{{PAGENAME}}
break=yes
width=50
buttonlabel=Add new topic
}}

   | {{ns:110}}={{#tag:inputbox|
type=create
prefix=Forum:
preload=Template:Forumheader/{{PAGENAME}}
break=yes
width=50
buttonlabel=Add new topic
}}

   |{{ns:112}}={{#tag:inputbox|
type=create
prefix=Howling:
preload=Template:Forumheader/The Howling
break=yes
width=50
buttonlabel=Add new discussion
}}

}}</div></div><noinclude>
[[Category:Forum templates]]</noinclude>
