character infobox is for RP characters
I've removed a couple instances of the character infobox and replaced them with generic wiki table code. The templates serve a specific purpose, and should not be used for anything other than what the name implies - Infobox_Nation is for nations only, etc. The main reason for this is that they automatically get added to appropriate categories, which your various nation pages didn't belong in.
See NSwiki:Page editing for some simple rules about creating custom tables. Feel free to copy the code (minus the categories) from any of the infobox Templates listed on NSwiki:Info boxes ... but please don't use the templates themselves for purposes other than intended. Thanks.
I've also added a national factbook, Category:Vigorithia, which you should use from now on when creating new pages. See Category:Factbooks for instructions. → Fris Θtalk 01:49, 19 Jan 2005 (GMT)
