How do I make an infobox template for recurring themes? I want to include a space for an audio clip, a picture of sheet music, the original composer, the first and latest appearances, etc. [[User:ToxicOJ|ToxicOJ]] ([[User talk:ToxicOJ|talk]]) 12:50, July 22, 2023 (EDT) | How do I make an infobox template for recurring themes?

==Clarification on [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/61#Discourage drive-by templating part 2|this proposal]]== | |||
Hey, so Swallow notified me about that proposal from a while back that I wasn't aware of, and I'm confused about it. You can refer to our user pages to get up to speed (most of it is on Swallow's). Fair enough, many of those were quite old and outdated, but I still think some of the articles that used to have one of those templates don't really require much discussion to enact even now: some cases are either self-evident or policy-driven (i.e.recent/common). Glancing at your edit history, I'll just pick out a few that stand out to me, in my opinion: arrow wheel, Bowser Memory ML, CLEAR Block, Little Ogre, M-Token, Papa (disambiguation), Power Sneakers, spotted platform, Switch Block (Yoshi's Island series), Yoshi Island Spirits... However, Swallow tells me that, apparently, all of the articles that used to have those templates now require having discussions (re)opened. This is especially troublesome because I already moved spotted platform and "Switch Block" earlier due to the former being superseded and the latter's lack of better source, but those articles used to have a move template, so does that mean all that work will be unnecessarily undone? I interpret the proposal as intended to be more of an immediate clean-up rather than a super-strict rule since you used phrases like "some level of discretion," and genuinely, I don't think that part of the proposal was "set in stone" - was it something that came up at a different point?
