Categories and infobox?

I slapped a "Category: Collaboration" on this but I'm not really sure if that's right or what other categories it needs or what infobox we could use. I don't think we have anything that fits? Because this is like... a real actual... physical location... I could *make* a new infobox, though, if we have any idea what would go in it. Maybe something to do with Fan Tourism?

(Also I dug up some tumblr posts with more pictures / some good fan comments but can't add them right now so I'm gonna leave them here. Other people are welcome to 'em, or I'll come back and do it later. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] ) - Hoopla (talk) 04:55, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

I can def add the tumblr comments once I'm on my laptop! And Fan Tourism sounds like it could fit - do we have a general category for fannish shrines? That might work too. Cancennau (talk) 05:09, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
Thank you! Some of the links are just pictures that seemed interesting. One of them is of the character that played Jack visiting the shrine.
If we have a shrines category I think it'd be for websites? But I'm not sure. More looking through the sitemap I guess! I did fine Category:Offline Spaces though! Maybe an infobox will appear next... - Hoopla (talk) 05:14, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
Added the quotes, and added some opinions from fans from Tripadvisor (or should we only stick to 'in fandom' quotes?). Also updated the images to showcase the new signs! Still need to figure out how to format the page so it's not so messy around the photos (the right hand side hurts my soul D: ). I think we should have a gallery with closeups of the shrine - I'm going to collect some more images for that! Cancennau (talk) 07:53, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
I think the TA quotes are great! I added in references and switched the quote template to the nested quote template to fix up that right side. We should really change the regular quote template... Also I think a gallery with closeups would be good, but I think we should have a photo of the shrine from before the new shrine and after, because it's important to document both! - Hoopla (talk) 17:58, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
good plan batman! Added a before and after shot, plus an extra quote. Also added the Template:FanCampaign infobox! Cancennau (talk) 08:35, 9 February 2019 (UTC)

The Save Ianto Jones campaign

This shrine is deeply tied in with the Save Ianto Jones campaign, but we don't actually have a page for the campaign - just a couple of references on Fan Campaigns and Ianto Jones. Should we expand of the SIJ campaign here, or set up an entirely new page for it? Cancennau (talk) 07:53, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

Save Ianto Jones would be a great page! It should be mentioned here, but since it's a separate thing (a campaign, not a physical location, etc) it'd be better for it to be on its own since it'd be offtopic to make a large portion of this page about something that's not Ianto's shrine. - Hoopla (talk) 17:58, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
A new Save Ianto Jones page is born! \o/ Cancennau (talk) 18:29, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
