Template:Infobox administration/sandbox

Hi Colonestarrice. Can I ask if you had any thoughts on the sandbox version of {{Infobox administration}}? I've tried to improve the structure of the template without fundamentally altering the design. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 04:40, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

Colonestarrice, can you please clarify whether you're OK with these changes? ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 00:53, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
No, I'm not. You are welcome to optimize the code and add parameters, but I don't see how this subjective design changes improve anything. Colonestarrice (talk) 10:38, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
Is there anything in particular that you take issue with? I've tried to be as minimalistic as possible with the design and appearance of the template. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 11:58, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
Well, can you please elucidate your design alterations and why you deem them necessary. Colonestarrice (talk) 17:57, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
Sure. I've tried to correct the proportions (e.g., line-height width) of the contents, so that they appear symmetrical and consistent throughout the template; to this end, I've embedded the {{Infobox officeholder}} template for an optimised code. I've also replaced the horizontal lines with a more minimalist design (inspired by the {{Tqbm}} template) of light-grey bars that should be less distracting for readers, while also helping readers discern between multiple terms and the predecessors/successors for each. Fundamentally, the template remains just as familiar as it was, with all the same features, albeit with a streamlined layout and improved accessibility. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 02:04, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
