Help:Infoboxes

Authoring rules
- Populate only values supported by the reviewed game source or verified live evidence.
- Leave unavailable fields empty. Use explicit 0 and No only when those values are verified.
- Keep different phases, charge states, difficulties and world modes in separately labeled boxes.
- Use the item infobox for identity and properties, and the bonuses infobox for equipment stat modifiers.
- Keep full drop tables, recipes, stock lists and detailed mechanics in article sections.
- Give images useful alternative text. A caption appears only when an image is supplied.
- For several boxes on one page,
alignment=noneavoids floats. Boxes become full-width on narrow screens.

Programmatic generation
The management repository's infoboxes/catalog.json defines types, groups, labels and field keys.
scripts/build-infoboxes call TYPE INPUT.json creates a template invocation from reviewed fields and rejects unknown keys.
Generation does not verify claims or publish an article. Research and review must happen before an infobox is populated.
