User blog comment:Ducksoup/The Future of Infoboxes on Wikia/@comment-1251315-20150820114515

It's all fine and well that Wikia wants to do this, but even without this announcement, I still have no intention of changing my infobox creation practices to these "portable infoboxes" that just look boring. The infoboxes I design are perfectly fine on all devices and do not need to be converted. I certainly do not want random members coming to wiki's I administrate and changing the infoboxes to this ugly format that requires you to use CSS to style it (which is unnecessary).

These infoboxes are only really useful to people who haven't run a wiki very much with limited coding knowledge. Experienced template designers and coders for them will know that parserfunctions are much more flexible and easier to design to be more dynamic to the wiki's needs (own opinion here).

If Wikia could explain how we can request to disable the migration notifications on individual wiki's that don't need it, it would be beneficial to me, so I can go and request them to be disabled on certain wiki's I administrate. I know for a fact certain wiki's can't even convert their infoboxes, so why prompt those wiki's to do so?
