My $.02...

[edit]

I know this isn't the best place to discuss this, but I didn't see a talk page. I just saw this infobox on the Cluedo page and, may I say, it's incredibly drab. Hues of gray? Games are supposed to be fun! Please see my Infobox for Arcade games as an example of something more colorful. Please come up with a different color scheme, but don't be afraid to use colors! :-)

Also, I'd like to suggest an additional item: Alternate names. This particularly would be useful for Cluedo, where it is known as "Clue" in North America. Most North Americans have never heard of a game called "Cluedo" and only know it by the shorter name. If a game has no "alternate name," the field can be left out (just like the image entry is). Thoughts? — Frecklefoot | Talk 19:03, Jan 25, 2005 (UTC)

Margin-bottom

[edit]

The infobox hits the category box on short pages like Java (board game) so I've added 0.5em to the bottom margin.


Suggest depraciating parameter skills

[edit]

It is very generic and hard to source. Example given: "skills = Strategy, tactics, counting, probability". Is probability even a skill? And this can be said about almost any game. What could make more thing would be to list key mechanics, based on BGG perhaps. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:19, 6 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

[edit]

Can we please change the template so the "Designer" header does not contain a wikilink? Bold text and headers generally aren't supposed to have wikilinks, and the blue text of "Designer" is a bit unappealing (in my view) when the other headers are black.
