Forum:Template rows not disappearing

I'm in the process of erecting a template for the Pokémon section of Nintendo Wiki. The template is at w:c:nintendo:User:Launchballer/Sandbox. It is meant that whenever the parameter isn't filled in for a row, the row doesn't appear, and the table ignores it. However, this clearly isn't happening, as you can see at w:c:nintendo:User talk:Launchballer/Sandbox. What am I doing wrong, and how can I solve it?-- 18:30, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
