The {{Unstructured infobox}} template creates infoboxes that do not obey to any recurrent structure, but have their own unique ones, or whose recurrence is confined within the scope of a single page. It was born for documenting the different functions of the {{#invoke:params}} module, where specific infoboxes were required and these would not find other applications outside that context, but the template is usable by any page with similar needs.

The way this template works is simple. Each unnamed parameter constitutes a new row, in which the colon constitutes the delimiter between the header cell and the content cell.
For instance, writing
{{Unstructured infobox
| Country: England
| County: [[Merseyside]]
| Town: [[Birkenhead]]
}}
will generate
|
Two named parameters allow to declare a title (
{{Unstructured infobox | title = Wirral Waters | caption = Details
| Country: England
| County: [[Merseyside]]
| Town: [[Birkenhead]]
}}
will generate
| ||||||||
Parameters that begin with a semicolon constitute subsection titles, while parameters that begin with a colon are rows that span across the two columns. And so writing
{{Unstructured infobox | title = Wirral Waters | caption = Details
| Country: England
| County: [[Merseyside]]
| Town: [[Birkenhead]]
| ; Location
| : {{Location map|United Kingdom|relief=yes|float=no|caption=|alt=|label=Wirral Waters|lat_deg=53.3846|lon_deg=-3.0109}}
| : Coordinates: {{coord|53.3846|-3.0109|display=inline|region:GB_scale:20000}}
will generate
| ||||||||||||||
Finally, parameters that do not contain a colon are assumed to signify a positive boolean answer (✔), while parameters that have a colon not followed by any text are assumed to signify a negative boolean answer (✘). And so writing
{{Unstructured infobox | title = Wirral Waters | caption = Details
| Country: England
| County: [[Merseyside]]
| Town: [[Birkenhead]]
| Announced
| Completed:
}}
will generate
| ||||||||||||
The text to display in these cases can be set by passing the
To preserve one or more initial colons from being replaced, the : HTML entity must be used. After one colon has been replaced all other colons in the argument will be preserved.
Similarly, to insert one or more equals signs into a parameter content, either {{=}} or = must be used.
