[edit] Right-alignment parameter needed
I'ld like to propose that an optional right-align parameter be added to this template. Presently, some articles using this template have lengthy Infoboxes and are so loaded with images that this template appears directly below a section header on the left side. This is undesirable, per MOS:IMAGES. As a workaround, I've been using <div style="float: right;"> in such situations to place the template on a right-alignment, but the proposed parameter would be more user-friendly and give better results, methinks.

- Looks fine to me, it moves the box farther to the right margin than using <div style="float: right;"> and would be easier for editors to use. I'll drop a note to User talk:Kingturtle to let him know about it, since no one else at the Baseball Project seems to be monitoring this page. JGHowes talk - 02:18, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

- I made the default left aligned so that it would be backward compatible, otherwise I would have defaulted it to the right. Let me know when it is approved and I will make it live and update the documentation. --—— Gadget850 (Ed) talk - 12:35, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

I do approve of this proposal. If I had my druthers, it would take it a step further and have it be align right only. The align left more often than not causes a mess. Kingturtle (talk) 19:06, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- I agree, but you would have to go through each article and move the template. Babe Ruth would be busted from the start. --—— Gadget850 (Ed) talk - 20:16, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Done. If you ever want it to default align right, it is an easy change. --—— Gadget850 (Ed) talk - 20:20, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
