(NEED HELP!) Trying to add an infobox for Lewis Compton

[edit]

Hey guys, I've wanted to give Lewis Compton an infobox just like most other Assistant Navy Secretaries, but I've done something wrong here. I don't know how to fix it, is it alright if I can get some help for this?:

{{Infobox officeholder |image=[[File:Lewis Compton (Assistant Secretary of the Navy).jpg|thumb | caption= Compton circa 1940 | office = 19th Assistant Secretary of the Navy | term_start = February 9, 1940 | term_end = January 10, 1941 | president = Franklin D. Roosevelt | predecessor = Charles Edison | successor = Ralph Austin Bard | birth_date = November 7, 1892 | birth_place = Perth Amboy, New Jersey | death_date = October 24, 1942(1942-10-24) (aged 49) | party = Democratic }} Lewis Compton (7 November 1892 24 October 1942) was an officer in the United States Navy during World War I, and served as Assistant Secretary of the Navy from 1940 to 1941.

@LolManI-75:  Done. Looking above, I think your issue was trying to embed the image in the infobox, as stated on your talk page (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). Hope this example helps you! I would suggest testing these things on your own sandbox (see WP:SANDBOX) to get you an idea. Cheers, --Engineerchange (talk) 13:06, 21 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
