[edit] Additional fields
Could we get additional/optional fields added to this infobox? I'd like to add Chairman, Manager, Secretary, and Curator. Thanks. --Brownings 10:53, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
...and address, phone numbers. StevenBlack 01:18, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Coordinates
Would anyone object to having the coordinates display in the infobox when entered as "latitude" & "longitude", as they currently do if entered as "coordinates"? Andy Mabbett 10:43, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
- I suggest using the coord template in the infobox, setting the display parameters to "inline,title". papageno 14:53, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Space
We need to get rid of the huge gap between location and website.--NeilEvans 22:55, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] map caption
{{editprotected}}
{{!}} colspan="2" style="font-size: smaller; text-align: center;" {{!}} <center>{{Location map|{{{map_type}}}|lat={{{latitude}}}|long={{{longitude}}}|width={{{map_size|220}}}|float=center|border=none|caption={{{map_caption|Shown within {{{map_type}}}}}}}}}}</center>
font-size: smaller; makes for a tiny font, hardly readable. could this part be removed? --Qyd (talk) 20:49, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] remove extra newline
{{editprotected}} Please remove an extra newline between the end of the template and the beginning of <noinclude>. Because of this, some pages looks poor (e.g. National Archaeological Museum of Athens). Then replace {{template doc}} with {{documentation}}, if possible. --58.89.68.123 (talk) 16:22, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Merge from {{Infobox Turkey museum}}
I say go for it. We can't have one for every country. --Adoniscik(t, c) 17:03, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- I remember that I created the template especially for the collection size feature. I know I have not used the feature so far, but is it possible to add the feature to this template? Then there will be no need for the other one. Thanks. --Chapultepec (talk) 04:18, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] ? add to project cat WikiProject Museums
{{editprotected}} As editing on this template is locked I though I would ask here whether it could be added to Category:WikiProject Museums templates. WikiProject Museums is a very new wikiproject & we are still getting a feel for all the relevant articles, templates, lists etc which are relevant - you would be very welcome to join & help.— Rod talk 15:35, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Website required
Not all museums have a website! This should be optional. Mjroots (talk) 08:51, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- I fully agree. Quite daft as it stands: type of museum is optional, but website is required. Hmm... Pyrope 14:57, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Help with displaying a map
Maybe someone can help with the new infobox on Wellcome Collection. I have tried to work out how to display a map but had to give up. I guess the trick is the right entry in the map caption field, it's not clear what this should be. ProfDEH (talk) 11:36, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
- Tis done "Greater London" is the most appropriate map I think?— Rod talk 13:43, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks - but is there a central London option? ProfDEH (talk) 09:25, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- The list of maps which can be used is at Template:Location map but to see what the UK ones look like see Template talk:Infobox UK place/maps. I would suggest talking to User:Jza84 who is much more expert on (UK) maps than I am.— Rod talk 10:01, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Minor typographical edit
Could <th>Visitor figures</th> be changed to <th>Visitor figures</th> so that the 'Visitor figures' label doesn't break over two lines? That would improve the infobox layout on pages like National Media Museum. Frankie Roberto (talk) 13:26, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
