Template:Infobox Spacecraft/doc
From The Space Library
Example from Sputnik 1
The code presented here in the upper blue box is what produces the spacecraft infobox seen at lower right. This code can be cut and pasted FROM THE BLUE BOX to create another spacecraft page. As can be seen here if a category is left blank (such as Organization) nothing appears in the spacecraft box at lower right. To use this to create a new spacecraft page the Contributor needs to check the upload File List for a suitable picture, or use the Upload File link in the master control panel at left.
