Generic Infobox instructions
Copy the The Infobox Wiki Code below the line to make your own custom NS Info box.
Each line must start with { ! | . Replace any text you see in the box to the right with text of your own choosing. If you need more lines in the table, copy the three lines beginning with |- in whatever style you need, and just paste them in where you want them. The sample nations have been left in for ease of editing and replacing.
- It may take a bit of experimentation, but you'll get it eventually. You probably should keep a copy of your last working version in an offline text editor (like Notepad) just to have something to go back to.
You can also insert image URLs to create an image block. Images should be kept under 300 pixels in width, and will automatically show up if you simply paste in the URL without wiki formatting, as shown below. You can remove the image section if you don't need it, of course.
- You can easily change the colors in the top and bottom block by changing the hex color code. Stick with light pastels for readability, please.
See Page editing or How to use tables for additional useful information.

The Membership InfoBox wiki code
This is a much simpler table that can be easily modified by the casual Wiki editor. It basically consists of three columns centered across the width of the page. Placing the | width="33%" | on a separate line splits the columns, and you can make it two or four columns equally easily (but change the width per column to 50% and 25% respectively). Three columns accomodates even the longest nation or region names on most browser settings.
Cut and paste this as a separate section for best results. Be sure to leave the asterisks in place or the whole thing collapses.
