Template:InfoboxOrganisation

Renders the right-hand infobox card on a page about an organisation, company, research group, society, production house or investigative organisation. Formerly named Template:OrganisationInfobox — that name now redirects here. Please use {{InfoboxOrganisation}} going forward. Uses the same vault-infobox styling as {{InfoboxCase}} and other Vault infobox templates. Note: requires the ParserFunctions extension for the conditionals. Important formatting notes:

  • Every row must stay entirely on a single line within its block — never split a <div>/<span> row across multiple lines, or MediaWiki's parser will auto-wrap it in a stray <p> tag and break the two-column grid layout.
  • There must also be no newlines between rows — every block must run directly into the next with no line break at all. If an optional field like location is left blank, its block evaluates to nothing, but a newline sitting on either side of that blank output still reads as a blank line to MediaWiki and renders as an empty paragraph — visible dead space wherever a field is omitted. Keeping the whole infobox body as one unbroken line guarantees a skipped field leaves nothing behind.
  • If editing this template, keep it as one continuous line to avoid reintroducing either issue.

Usage:

{{InfoboxOrganisation
|name=Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research
|image=PEAR Laboratory.jpg
|image_caption=Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research
|type=University research laboratory
|founded=1979
|founders=Robert G. Jahn
|location=Princeton University, New Jersey, USA
|known_for=Research into mind–matter interaction and random event generators
|status=Closed (2007)
}}

Place this at the very top of the page, before the article text.
