===Adding an infobox and page categories===
===Adding an infobox and page categories===


Infobox lists the main information about an informal practice. Page categories catalogue the entry and make it easily discoverable. Its special formatting requires you to format the information following a particular syntax. Conceptual chapters, comparative essays or other pages normally do not require an infobox. Use the [http://www.in-formality.com/wiki/inf-files/INF_new_entry_create_infobox.html '''Infobox tool'''] to create an infobox and format the page categories. Fill out all fields (if author's website is not available, leave this field blank), press the button and copy the output to the top of the page.

For 'Flagemoji', paste the emoji of the flag of the entry's country. Leave blank if the entry represents a practice from a region and insert a globe if the practice occurs worldwide. For 'Definition', provide a single sentence summarising the entry or copy the description from the [http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/10041167/1/The-Global-Encyclopaedia-of-Informality-Volume.1.pdf#page=421 Glossary] for the first two volumes of the Encyclopaedia. Please separate keywords with commas when you insert them into the Keywords field. You may need to tweak the filename of the map image manually to show the correct map. Please check the uploaded media in the gallery and choose the appropriate image, or upload a new map image.
