Template:New infobox/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:New infobox.
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original Template page.

[[Category:Template documentation pages{{#translation:}}]]

This template is for use on an article's talk page to show that the article's infobox needs to be converted. As well as adding the message to the talk page, it adds the page to an appropriate category for cleanup.

Usage

This template goes on an article's talk page, not on the article itself because infobox formatting or replacement is not an article content issue, unless the old/broken infobox raises a verifiability, POV or content dispute issue. Use one of the types below as a type parameter, for example: {{New infobox|type=single}}.

Type	Infobox	Category
single	{{Infobox song}}	Category:Song articles needing single infobox conversion
song	{{Infobox song}}	Category:Song articles needing song infobox conversion
game	{{Infobox video game}}	Category:Video game cleanup
school	See: WikiProject Schools/Infobox templates	Category:School articles without infoboxes
ship	{{Infobox ship begin}}	Category:Ship articles needing infobox conversion
	See: Category:Infobox templates	Category:Pages needing an infobox conversion

type can also be set to the name of the infobox to use, for example {{New infobox|type=Infobox person}}
