[edit] New template

I am creating Template:Eurocomicbox as a generic infobox for all (or at least as much as possible) European comic books. I had noticed that individual infoboxes for Valerian and for Asterix were already made, and while I understand and appreciate why it was created, I feared that every new series would get its own, almost similar infobox, so I try to create one that fits every regular European comic book, for all new series and to replace the existing ones. I don't plan to do that replacement anytime soon though: I would like everyones input, comments, and collaboration first, to see if it is a good idea, and if so to make the template as good as possible. What you see there is only a first draft!

Thanks for your time, Fram 19:37, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Standardisation with Template:Infobox Book

I noticed that this infobox was quite dissimilar to the standard Template:Infobox Book, so I went into the template code to rewrote it with Template:Infobox to match Infobox Book. I've tested and checked over my changes, so there should be no problems, but if you notice any mistakes, please fix them. If there are any serious issues with the template messing up articles, please feel free to revert my changes immediately and leave a notice here or on my talk page so we can fix it.

Well, the intention was to remove this infobox alltogether and to replace it with the template Graphicnovelbox, as has been done on the first two Asterix comics recently. This infobox is used on all otherEuropean comiucs, including Tintin, Lucky Luke and Spirou, and has many possibilities especially for comics which are absent from the generic book template.
