[The current way of doing template taxoboxes] isn't really supposed to work at all. It would be virtually impossible for me to make your current way work with a real parser. To compensate, I am perfectly happy to help you convert all the taxoboxes to a proper structure.
Greetings, Timwi
I for one am delighted that you are happy to help convert taxoboxes to a proper structure (i.e. implement optional parameters).
However I just wanted to remark that your remarks smack of "blame the user". It is hardly the users' fault that they (we) are using it as a text replacement mechanism - that is precisely the heritage of the template system through 1.2 and 1.3 and no-one has ever, until now, said anything different.
