I recently converted a template using the infobox previewer, and it was a smoother experience that expected. Some feedback:


 * Bugs:
 * Probably caused by another redirect: Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #Norwegian_(Bokmål)_for_English 


 * Good features:
 * The code highlighting
 * Auto completion of tags
 * On the fly editing & preview
 * Great keyboard shortcuts


 * Suggestions:
 * Auto indenting of code upon save.
 * Better error reporting - I'm sure this is on the todo-list
 * Simple parser/conversion tool - to pick up template arguments and use as data-source.

I can actually code suggestion 3 myself using lua and page preview. This could probably greatly facilitate the conversion of just about any oldIBox into a potBox.

Also, does wikia prefer that we use the image tag for every potBox image element? Currently one of the tested templates uses in one of the data-source elements because without css these images will be in disarray. Maybe there could be an  or the template could automatically make it smaller (10x10px or so) when it is being used in a data-source.

P.S. For testing purposes it would be nice if the infobox preview page accepted some parameters, e.g. http://infoboxpreview.appspot.com/template?name=potBox?domain=community
