Metabox is similar to Parthenon, in that it is intended to be the foundation for other templates on the wiki. Both templates are largely a blank slate, changing to suit the needs of the editors that use them.

Based on a community discussion thread, The Sims Wiki is retiring its old "standard" message template, otherwise known as {{Parthenon}}. In its place, we are rolling out a new template known as {{Metabox}}.
Metabox is similar to Parthenon, in that it is intended to be the foundation for other templates on the wiki. Both templates are largely a blank slate, changing to suit the needs of the editors that use them. However, Metabox does introduce a couple changes that need to be understood before setting out to use the template.
- Template type
Parthenon required editors to set the background and border colors for the template when first setting it up. Metabox does not require this... however, it does require that a type be set.
