[edit] Microformat
I have added the hCard microformat to this template, with class="vcard" on a wrapping div. It would be better to add that class to to the table element. I can't see how to do that, without adding it to all the other templates which use the shared header template. Any ideas? Andy Mabbett 11:51, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
- Fixed it; there's code in the shared template to allow secondary classes to be set on the main box. Kirill 15:12, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

- Thank you. Please feel free to mention the use of hCard and geo microformats in your newsletter; and do let me know if I can assist in adding them to other templates in this project. Andy Mabbett 21:09, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Needed parameters
This badly needs to include the options of adding heritage register designations, like {{Infobox Historic Site}} has done. --Kevlar (talk • contribs) 05:49, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
[edit] "Nearest town"
This parameter does not allow an option when memorials are located within, rather than near to, a town or city. For example, use of the template at The Cenotaph, Whitehall, gives the absurd resulting text that London is the "nearest town", when the memorial is located right in the heart of the city. Can this be rectified? Ghmyrtle (talk) 08:41, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
- In principle, certainly. Is there a specific alternative wording you'd prefer to see? Kirill [talk] [prof] 09:21, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
- It seems to me that there should be an option for Location, where the location can be specifically named (such as "London") - as an alternative to the "Nearest town" option, which is fine when the memorial is in a rural location. I have no expertise in infobox templates, so I'll leave it to others as to how that is best accomplished. Ghmyrtle (talk) 09:46, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
