Microproject Standard Infoboxes is an independent initiative to standardize infoboxes across MicroWiki, as well as revising and improving the quality of infoboxes on existing articles.
Any editors are free to help transcribe makeshift table-based charts into proper infoboxes.
If you spot infoboxes on articles you believe are non-standard, please place {{NSI}} on the page.
For a list of pages that need transcription, see Category:Articles with non-standard infoboxes.
