Forum:How to implement Custom Infoboxes?

Now, I'm relatively new to the wiki building scene, but I figure I should make some priorities first. While it isn't as important as many would think it is, I'm a stickler for neat Infoboxes. My problem? I'm not really fond of the default infobox that wikia has set up, and I'd like to utilize some other Infobox templates for my wiki here: http://omnipedia.wikia.com/wiki/OmniMundus_Wiki

So, not fond of the default infobox template wikia has to offer. Too bland and not quite detailed enough for my tastes. While it is reccommended to use the default, I'm just not too into it. The Infobox templates I am interested in making use of however, are the ones over at Wookiepedia here. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Infobox_templates

While they're not going to be total cut and pastes; going to have to edit some of the Information provided in the Infoboxes to suit my needs; they are what I'm looking for. My question is, how exactly do I implement custom infoboxes into my wiki?

Hello! To add a new infobox, you will need to create a new page called "Template:Infobox (Your Name Here)". Next import the infobox you want to copy from Wookieepedia into your new template page. Finally, you can put it in your article by typing
