Museum and NHS (info)boxes

[edit]

The red "National Historic Site" box within the infobox suggests Fort Frederick is a national historic site. White it is a part of two others, it doesn't hold the designation under its own name. One possible fix is to leave "Fort Frederick" as the title on this box, but subscribe, below that, two banners which indicate the names of each of the two NHS's of which it is a unit. It's also part of Rideau Canal World Heritage Site, and it might be desirable to note this (looking at how WHSs might be identified elsewhere).

It's not clear to me how to edit an infobox, so I'm open to learning how to make this one more accurate and attractive. I submit that the red NHS box looks more like a warning than helpful information. Yoho2001 (talk) 08:59, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You're right - infobox templates pertaining to NHSCs should only be used when the article subject is a NHSC in its own right. Otherwise, it should be left to the text of the article to explain the circumstances. I've removed that template, as per your comment. Good catch. The red box is the country colour assigned to Canada - red. It doesn't really look like a warning to me. --Skeezix1000 (talk) 20:37, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
