Infobox modules broken, reports users
On Febuary 18, 2022, MicroWiki@Discord members reported in the channel: #wiki-support about broken infoboxes on the official website.
Reports and lack of response from MicroWiki staff
The first report, from the Kingdom of Salanda, asked: 'What has happened to all to Infobox’s? I can’t see my Infobox.' [*sic*] When suggested to contact a Wiki Administrator by another server member, Salanda pinged Wiki Administrator Anthony Clark, whose status said 'Do Not Disturb' Anthony Clark did not respond. None of the other MicroWiki staff were active during the incident.
Accusation against MicroProject Standard Infoboxes and the solution
A server member blamed the 'standardizing' efforts of MicroProject Standard Infoboxes, a MicroProject working on standardizing MicroWiki articles led by MicroWiki user MattL.
Dhrubajyoti Roy, an administrator of MicrowWiki, noted that it was due to some tinkering in Module:NavBox. The error was later fixed by Christina Nowell.
