Some words from newbie
[edit]The text below is only my point of view
The main idea of placing some kind of infoboxes in Commons, linking categories with other our resources, in simple words - is absolutely right. I understand it so much, that a day before I discovered your discussion here of such infoboxes - allocated some hours to create a first working draft of something similar for many categories I'v created and working on. It's effect of my assumptions that categories and galleries here should be as good, complete, intuitive and useful for regular users as possible. Maybe it could be my small contribution to discuss about such things. I'm near newbie, very unexperienced user, but after 1.5 months of intensive everyday work here I have also some observations, conclusions and ideas.
So, my short summary is, infoboxes - YES, but:
- horizontal, at the top of pages, more compact - something like recent Navbox template
- in the vertical form as now, they looks often very bad, interfere with pages composition, and lacking the usability; maybe adding switch like
|form=h / =v
would solve this? - they should be so universal as possible for various needs and -
- they must be editable in the simple and easy way by users (also good documented), who will to match with specific needs concerned with respective page
- all former descriptions in various languages should be converted (not removed!) by dedicated, properly implemented and tested script to lang switch mode
- all other proper editions must be preserved
- probably, they should be placed automatically, by creation a new category page
- ... and many minor changes and improvements
