Hey, Nightlily! I appreciate your response.

Just to clarify a few things: Using Portable Infoboxes will actually decrease the difficulty when editing an infobox template.

The main goal here is portability, which is a philosophy. Vanguard's goal is portability, which means that we want your wiki look amazing across all platforms, and not just desktop or an iPhone. Different platforms may include desktop, different mobile devices with varying screen sizes, Fandom's mobile apps, tablets, Chrome Books, VR Headsets, you name it!

Wikitext infoboxes on certain platforms do not look that great, which leads to Fandom readers getting frustrated and annoyed. Vanguard wants everyone to have an amazing experience when viewing Fandom. :)

So, all in all, the aim here is to help Once Upon a Time Wiki look good on every platform and cater to every user. We also want to encourage the editing of infoboxes, which currently might seem intimidating due to the required knowledge of complex wikitables and extensive inline styling. The PI syntax will make your infoboxes easily maintainable so that down the line they can be edited quickly.

Thanks again Killian and Nightlily for your responses!
