Displacing non-portable infoboxes without consent

Hey there, I appreciate that you've created portable versions of our templates. However, on behalf of the administrative team on The Sims Wiki, I have to say that we aren't impressed with the way you've displaced our non-portable versions of our infoboxes without our consent. Several of our administrators have been complaining about the portable infoboxes.

My own complaints being the fact that the we no longer have control over the sizes of the images displayed in the portable infoboxes. And that the portable infoboxes are wider than the non-portable infoboxes. Maybe if my own concerns were addressed, I may be more supportive of these migrations, provided that the other administrators are okay with them as well. But I'm afraid I can't really be supportive of this right now. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 00:06, August 15, 2019 (UTC)

Hi Syde, I do apologize! I had reached out to K6ka on their page and thought they'd let you all know a few content team members (myself right now) were planning to work on helping get the infoboxes portable and as I wasn't sure who needed to be talked to I just reached out to an active beaucrat. If you can let me know what you guys don't like about the portable infoboxes that have been done so far (the family and game one) I can look into those to see if we can find a solution. As for the images, I do know of a possible workaround if you're ok with all images having the same size/format, though it will no longer have the option in visual editor to select a file and any captions wouldn't be a real caption (it's become it's own separate data field).
