- Search through the Category:Infobox templates for the appropriate infobox you wish to use and copy/paste the information provided. Trak Nar Ramble on 03:18, August 30, 2011 (UTC)
Just adding {{Nameoftemplate Infoboox}} will not do anything. You need to add fields like |name=, |image=, etc. An example of all that you would need for a standard character is provided below:
{{Character infobox
|BG1=
|BG2=
|imageBG=
|image=
|name=
|hideb=
|homeworld=
|birth=
|death=
|hidep=
|species=
|gender=
|height=
|hair=
|eyes=
|skin=
|cyber=
|hidec=
|era=
|affiliation=
|masters=
|apprentices=}}
Hope that clarifies if for you. As Trak said, most templates are available directly from that category.-I'm the Chosen One 13:36, August 30, 2011 (UTC)
