Writing Guidelines
None at the moment.

Create Template:Organzation-infobox
I've noticed that pages on organizations or groups either don't use infoboxes, or use Template:species-infobox (Snowmad and Tiki Tak Tribe were the pages I first noticed this on), listing species employed by the organization as sub-species, which looks...odd. Besides, we have infoboxes for other things, like locations, organizations aren't any less important. The last proposal was a vote short of passing, so I'm reposting this to get more attention.

Proposer: Deadline: May 1, 2015, 23:59 GMT

Support

 * 1) Per my proposal.
 * 2) - Per what I said in the last proposal.
 * 3) Per all.
 * 4) Per all. Species and organizations should be differentiated.

Comments
For reference, the parameters (aside from the obvious ones included in every infobox) would be: Binarystep (talk) 22:08, 24 April 2015 (EDT)
 * leader (the character in charge of the organization)
 * member_species (species frequently employed by the organization)
 * members (notable members)

Create Template:Pmitembox
I've noticed we're using Template:Recipe-Infobox for Paper Mario series items, which leads to saying things like that Repel Gel or Yellow Berries are "Made by Tayce T.", which looks weird. Besides, a Paper Mario item infobox would give us a convenient place to list the non-HP/FP-related effects of some items, maybe even what enemies drop them, etc.

Proposer: Deadline: May 2, 2015, 23:59 GMT

Support

 * 1) Per my proposal.
 * 2) This sounds like a really good idea and could be helpful in the future. Per proposal.

Oppose

 * 1) Per Megadardery's comment below, even if it isn't exactly an opposing vote. Would rather see a redesign of the current infobox.

Comments
Not voting -yet- but you know that the "Made by" parameter is optional. I would prefer if we used that Recipe-Infobox template for all the items in the PM series with a few more tweaks (ignore the name of the template), like adding a description parameter. And potentially adding a "Gotten from" (seriously don't have a clue on what to name this, as this should fit both cases: the item being dropped by an enemy, or being bought from a shop) as another parameter. What I am getting at is that instead of a new template -especially because it is already used in many non-recipes items-, we can use the existing template but with a few modifications (again, ignore the name of the template.) If you want to know how it would look like, I can make a draft. But again, not all the information should be in the infobox, some can be left to the article.-- 19:50, 25 April 2015 (EDT)
