Info box

Hi Mr. James,

I've enjoyed your contributions to the site, thank you :) The infobox is a great idea, but I need to know how you'd like it made since there are so many ways to do infoboxes. Here is the one wikipedia uses for the Baha'i Faith in general [1], here is the one that we use for countries: Template:Infobox_Country (eg. Albania). And here's a list of them on wikipedia in general [2].

Hello Mr. James,
Please review 'Abdu'l-Bahá and let me know of your thoughts. I had to add information in order to test the infobox but that can all be changed.

oh yes

thank you very much i think its brilliant. would you think it suitable if you add this information too?

| birth_name = ‘Abbás
| title = Sir Abdu’l-Bahá Abbás Effendi
| spouse = Munírih Khánum
| issue = Husayn, Mihdí, Ḍiyá'iyyih (among others)
| father = Bahá’u’lláh
| mother = Ásiyih Khánum
| date_birth = May 23, 1844
| place_birth = Tihrán , Irán
| date_death = November 28, 1921
| place_death = 7 Haparsim Street Haifa, Israel
| place_burial = Shrine of Báb}}

Yes I think that would work. Perhaps we should get rid of the "related books" section since it's going to be pretty long. Here is the template for future reference: Template:Infobox 'Abdu'l-Bahá and I'll work on getting those things added in.

I think it can be better but here it is for now: 'Abdu'l-Bahá. I'll work on it tomorrow! - David 02:12, 6 March 2008 (MST)

Infobox person

Hi Mr. James,

I am not sure if you are so interested in this but I've put up an infobox that can be used for any individuals, you can see an example here: Horace Holley. I haven't decided about creating more specific infoboxes like Infobox UHJ member or ITC member, but we can use that one for now if you want. Is everything here functioning ok?

munirih khanum

ive just finished the infobox, if its no bother can u please look at it and see if it is properly finished and if there can be any improvments or not?

Hi, yes it looks good. My only question is if there is more information you want to put in it, the template is from wikipedia so there are many fields that can be used Template:Infobox_Person, many are irrelevant, so we could replace those with Baha'i-specific fields. So it looks good to me but please let me know if you can think of anything else it should have. Best, David 20:45, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi Jim, there is an option "|parents =" already in that infobox, did you want to use that or have me create "Father=" and "Mother="? Best, David 20:19, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi Jim, I've added in two fields for Birth name and parents, just parents for now if that's alright with you because I'm in the middle of adding Infoboxes to all the pages here to try and make the encyclopedia look more attractive to potential contributors and more useful to visitors. Under Parents= try something like Father, name<br/>mother, name, even though we don't know Mother= it will tell you what it would look like. Best, David 11:37, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi m8

I wanted to thank you again for the work you've put into Bahaikipedia now for several months, it's improving a lot thanks to the efforts and I hope you are enjoying the experience.

Ṭáhirih

Hi Mr. James. Can you give a source for the death date of Ṭáhirih that you've added as August 31? I haven't looked for a source but if you know it that would be faster. Thanks, David 20:40, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Munirih Khánum

That sounds like a good idea, I've been doing that as the days have come up, like today for the commemoration of the passing of 'Abdu'l-Baha.

Also, do you know the source for the Ṭáhirih date? Best, David 19:26, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

re:

Hi James, sure thing. I just added {{reflist}} to the article which does the same thing as <references/>. You can see here [3] Best, David 19:06, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
