Meta-template for building specific infobox templates. It should not be used directly on article pages.

Template parameters
Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Title	`title`	Title displayed in the infobox header.	String	optional
Image	`image`	Filename of an image to display, without the File: prefix.	File	optional
Caption	`caption`	Caption displayed below the image.	String	optional
Label 1	`label1`	Label for the first data row.	String	optional
Data 1	`data1`	Content for the first data row. Row is hidden if empty.	String	optional
Title background color	`titlebg`	no description Default var(--vw-accent-subtle)	Unknown	optional

Additional label/data pairs follow the same pattern: label2/data2, label3/data3, and so on. There is no hard limit.

Example

Call this template from another template, passing labeled rows as parameters:

{{Infobox
| title   = {{{name|}}}
| image   = {{{image|}}}
| caption = {{{caption|}}}
| label1  = Founded
| data1   = {{{founded|}}}
| label2  = Type
| data2   = {{{type|}}}
}}
