An infobox is a table designed to be added to the top of articles to consistently present a summary of some unifying aspect that the articles share and to improve navigation to other interrelated articles. Infobox templates contain facts and statistics that are common to related articles.
Infobox templates are like fact sheets, or sidebars, in magazine articles. They quickly summarize important points in an easy-to-read format. However, they are not "statistics" tables in that they are only supposed to summarize material from an articleโthe information should still be present in the main text, because it may not be possible for some readers to access the contents of the infobox or may not be the way the reader prefers to access the information.
