Usage
Infobox event is for events, abuse cases, fraud cases, scandals, regulatory inquiries, court cases, and protests or campaign actions. It is styled to match Template:Infobox organization. Every field is optional: a row only appears when its field has a value, so leave out or blank anything that does not apply.
Image
Use image or logo (image takes priority). Any of these forms works:
image=Example.jpgimage=File:Example.jpgimage=[[File:Example.jpg|200px]](the size in the link is used as given)
image_size sets the width for the first two forms (default 250px). caption appears under the image.
