===How do you create an infobox?===
===How do you create an infobox?===
Look for the type of infobox you want in [[:Category:Infobox_Templates]] and follow the instructions on the desired template's page.  I noticed that you're trying to use an item template, which hasn't been created yet.  If you what you tried, starting with "{{Item", it will show up as a red link, indicating that the template doesn't exist yet, and it will show up on the wanted pages list.

'''Read all of the text before you start with anything'''
 
If you want an existing infobox use one of the infobox templates.
If you want to create a new infobox copy the script from one of the template pages and play with it on the sandbox till you know what your doing. Once you know how to do it if the template doesnt already exist feel free to make one.'''Do not make a template if you are not absolutely sure your script works.'''You can tell if it works or not by clicking the show preview button.
 
If you need a new infobox but don't have the time to make one have someone who knows how to make an infobox do it for you.
