Can someone change this template to an Infobox?

Issues:

  • It's Useless (Philippe: It is actually not useless.... there are a number of things dependent upon it.)
  • It's Ugly
  • hard to fill or edit (resolved. Thanks)
  • Always takes about 40% of page. Unlike info-box.
  • When the forth parameter is turned on, the forth priority turns into a long sentence:
"Ensure that the underlying project infrastructure is secure, stable, and sufficient to guarantee the permanence of the projects and support ongoing growth".
  • The current statements are not so clear.
Like: focus on quality conent. if the proposal ssatisfies two priorities, it's not a "focus".
  • There is no link to give a separate understanding. all linke go to movement priorities.
Like: there is no good link to what quality content is. does it mean featured and good articles, books, ...? I studied for 30 hours (most interviews, case studies, illustrations, theory of change, articles in "quality part of wikimedia-pedia) to find out what that is. people have really different opinions.
  • When in the page, pictures for first paragraph behave bad:
The thumbnails and non thumbnails push the table of content forward, instead of pushing it down. like: here
The right aligned pictures like [[File:Example.jpg|left|75px]] falls over the table of contents!

It is actually not useless.... there are a number of things dependent upon it. I'm sorry you're having problems with it... do you have some usability suggestions?

Suggestions: I've drawn a better one. I tried to edit the template (2.5 hours honestly), but those codes are so hard to understand and edit. gotta go. I'll answer later.

It's a good one. but I have a side-box here

Benefits

  • everyone will like it
  • colored background! blue is cool
  • narrow width
  • not as long as it looks here.

My suggestion:
