Module:Infobox Skill

This module provides the back end functionality of the Template:Infobox_Skill.

If the template is passed an Infobox will be made using details from the following Modules:

• Module:SkillData
• Module:TalentData

Credit

Original Infobox (now known as Infobox_Item) created by Pradoxzon was then edited by Nesphit and TreeNuts0. Fyre (FishAus) and Scotty (ZeelNightwolf) further edited the Infobox_Item. They then duplicated and used as a base for Infobox_Skill, Infobox_Plant, and Infobox_Animal.
