 * ... is that how they're done? Huh. I just started with the mainpage code, separated the two columns, and made the character profile into a table on the right side. - Xelrog T. Apocalypse 13:12, 25 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Still won't work for me and just comes up with it saying Template:infobox character even when I have customised it and everything. Can someone explain it to me step-by-step? Or, could someone make one for me on the EastEnders Wiki? Solar Dragon 13:33, 25 April 2009 (UTC)


 * What kind of infoboxes, specifically, are you looking for? It's a very variable term. If you're after the sort of profile or Table of Contents boxes provided in the above link, I'm afraid I can't help you... if you're looking for a Navbox template that you can place at the bottom of every article related to a certain topic or series, I might have just what you're after. - Xelrog T.

 * Yeah, I mean the profile. Thansk Ose for starting it up but I don't know hot to add Parameters. I have tried but it failed. Solar Dragon 15:06, 26 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Could you link to the template you are working on?
 * I will give a quick tutorial here. To add a parameter to an article, add some wikicode like  or  . In these examples you would pass the parameter like this:   or  . If you forgot to use the   parameter in the first example, the default param1 needed for name would be inserted instead of "Joe" or whatever might normally be passed. So you can set a default bu putting a   (vertical bar) and then what you want the default value to be, if no data is passed to the parameter. Does this make sense? --  Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 11:06 AM PST 27 Apr 2009
