On the German Wikipedia, I've noticed they've got a nifty trick with templates whereby you can include a button to hide an infobox, in the same way as you can hide a contents box. See an example down at the bottom of this page:

I don't know of any templates to do the same thing on en:, and when I tried to replicate the code on the German templates it didn't work. Does anyone know how one might get something similar working on en:?
That is nifty! It seems to be a relatively straigtforward change to monobook.js, and then use a version of the http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Navigationsleiste_ohne_Bild (that might lead to some heavy transclusion though).
The code is located at the end of http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Monobook.js - look for the section titled "BEGIN Dynamic Navigation Bars" :)
PS. I'm crap at these things really, so please someone else comment :P
It would be trivial to copy the code across to en:, the same as the Featured Article Star code was copied around... :)
