[edit] Discussion of the Infobox Book code pattern template
If I add an "image" line, will it work? See The Unicorn in the Garden for the issue at hand. Thanks! Karen | Talk | contribs 04:46, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- As "short stories" are normally published within another publication it is not relevant to have a cover image element to this infobox. In this case the illustration is useful and is best included in the body of the article at a relevant point of the text. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:00, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
