Template:Record infobox

The standard infobox for every srcfy record: documentation, reports, investigations and interactive pieces. It shows the key facts, stores them in Semantic MediaWiki through Template:Record data, and feeds the public search on srcfy.com. Only records with status=Published appear in search.

Create a record with the record form. See Help:Records for what each field means and the editorial rules behind them. Incident articles use Template:Incident infobox, which stores the same record fields.
