Template for organisation infoboxes with bordered table and right float

Template:Infobox organization displays structured key facts about organisations, charities and similar entities in a floating right-aligned infobox with visible table borders.

The template uses a simple wikitable layout to ensure clear cell boundaries (full borders around every cell and the outer table) and floats to the right of article text by default. Date parameters accept Template:Start date and Template:End date templates for consistent formatting and metadata generation.

Usage

Place at the top of content pages (e.g. Chabad UK) after any none

{{Infobox organization
| name               = Chabad UK
| type               = [[Charity (practice)|Charity]] (removed from register)
| founded            = {{Start date|2007|03|26}} (as Brocho Vhatzlocho Limited)
| dissolved          = {{End date|2023|08|30}}
| registration_id    = 1118547 ([[Charity Commission]])

}}

headquarters: Main address

location: City/country

area_served: Geographic scope

Technical notes

The template applies class="infobox" with border="1" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" and style="float:right; width:22em; margin:0 0 1em 1em; background:#f9f9f9; border:1px solid #aaa;" to ensure visible lines around all cells and proper right float. Dates render correctly when Template:Tl and Template:Tl are used.

Preventing loops

Do not transclude Template:Tl inside its own page source. Place documentation in
