I would like to propose that if multiple prices exist in an infobox, that they be changed from US $45.00 / CA $400,000 to US $45.00<br/>CA $400,000. Any comments? Ajraddatz Talk 13:04, May 17, 2010 (UTC) Hm, I think it sounds like an okey idea, but I think I would need to see it on a fairly fully filled out infobox before I support it.. --Lewis Cawte (Talk - Contact) 14:49, May 17, 2010 (UTC) Well, I think this would make the infobox unnecessarily longer, and since we have already got the appearances, themes and minifigures with a break, I'd say no, for now. User:Samdo994/sig2 19:23, May 17, 2010 (UTC) It looks so much more prettyful though. Ajraddatz Talk 14:48, May 19, 2010 (UTC) Sorry, at present, I think I'd have to oppose. NovaHawk 00:35, June 9, 2010 (UTC) I've added it to one page to see what you think. In my opinion, it make the infobox look more professional. That is just my opinion, though. User:Ajraddatz/sig 14:42, July 3, 2010 (UTC) Sorry, still not a big fan of it, but I don't know why, and I can see arguments for having it like this. The only reason I can say against it is it does make the infobox a lot longer.

I think it's okay the way it is now. User:Samdo994/sig1 16:42, October 7, 2010 (UTC) ----- It's Magic - Kingcjc 16:40, October 8, 2010 (UTC) Comments How about a comprimise where by the item number section is removed and the set number is added to the title. Just an idea please don't be mad. User:SKP4472/sig 16:30, September 27, 2010 (UTC)

The following section is preserved as an archive. Please do not modify it. The result was to change the order Proposal: Set Articles This is a proposal to change the order of some required fields of a set article. If a set article is fixed up exactly according to the MOS, the minifigure gallery section sometimes causes a good deal of white space to appear between itself and the section above it, making the article seem shorter than it actually is when first looked at, but it is actually a lot bigger than it needs to be. This is because the parameters of the minifigure gallery automatically set it up so that it fits to the whole page, which also makes it impossible to fit alongside, and sending it below, the set template, causing major white space. And, quite often, there is not enough information regarding a set that can fit in between the top of the page and the minifigure gallery to eliminate all white space. An effective solution to this problem would be to give the LEGO.com description section more importance over the minifigure gallery. The LEGO.com description section will use up any space that it is given, meaning no more large white spaces in the middle of articles. This change would be a good one, because Wikia is about conveying information, and we want to pack as much information into a small space as possible, and not leave any part of a page blank. --TheGrandEditor 11:19, October 5, 2010 (UTC) Interesting idea. I'd agree with you, but our problem would remain the same unless we increased the length of all the articles. The notes section should go before both of those too, so that they don't get shoved out by the set template.User:BobaFett2/sig2 13:05, October 5, 2010 (UTC) I don't think the problem would remain the same. Before I knew exactly what order the sections were supposed to go in, I was putting the LEGO.com description before the minifigure gallery and it always looked much better after I did. --TheGrandEditor 16:39, October 7, 2010 (UTC) Here are two examples of both set-ups. The one that follows the order is a really extreme example, and the the one that doesn't has just enough information in that order that it fits very well, but if it followed the order, would have a good deal of white space. http://lego.wikia.com/wiki/30042_Mini_Sub http://lego.wikia.com/wiki/7625_River_Chase TheGrandEditor 21:49, October 7, 2010 (UTC) I agree. The gallery can't shrink, but the description can, so it makes sense. @BF2: The notes section is meant to go before either of these, see BP:MOS. NovaHawk 00:20, November 10, 2010 (UTC)
