NOTICE

Due to the inability to actually access the code necessary to implement this change properly I have had to adapt the code from the TEMPLATE:SPW to be able to, at least, noticeably allow it to work.

In order to use the Ambox template do the following:

{{ambox
| image = [[Image:Wiki.png|50px]]
| border = red
| type = Top Line Text
| info = Bottom Line Text
}}

image = Displays a specified image.
border = Changes the colour of the side border.
type = The writing for the top text line.
info = The writing for the bottom text line.

Which displays this:

Please note that everything below this was copied from the Templates Wikia wiki site and so has already obtained usage of the CSS code.

In other words everything below this is irrelevant till the MediaWiki:Wikia.css is updated. Though not necessary.

Description and usage

This template is used to create article management templates. Note: This template requires sitewide CSS!

Use {{ambox|<...>}} on a template page, filling in the various options. The created template is then used at the top of various wiki pages to notify the user of issues.

Article management boxes should be used sparingly, as it can get in the way of content.
