An OS-tan that actually reads the manual‽
This is a documentation subpage for Template:WEinfobox.
It may contain usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template was created for the sole purpose of establishing an easy to use character info-box within the OS-tan wiki. The infobox you now see is meant to be used for characters that are personifications of websites, other templates will be created specifically for other types of personifications as they are needed.

Properly built character articles should make use of this template as it is easy to use and there is not much code used in the user side. This would prevent any inconsistencies between infoboxes, even more it would have a set standard of required info to be given in order to maintain an acceptable degree of quality.

Usage
