Obsolete (legacy) parameters
These parameters are supported by the template to allow it to display properly on articles that have not yet been converted to the new format. They should not be introduced into new articles/transclusions.

Tip: use |capacities= for LEO

Wikidata
This template is using Wikidata with opt-out available. Opt-out here means that the template enables Wikidata by default, and only suppressed if the fields are manually written. It will probably stay like this for a very long time, until almost all information has been migrated.
 * Note: It is impossible to turn off Wikidata without manually entering values.

Why now?
A lot of people are concerned about Wikidata's information quality, and while this is a legitimate concern, it is very impractical. Most info in infoboxes are never cited, but rather being cited at the article itself or even not cited at all. Infoboxes are also extremely hard to be corrected by new editors, and Wikidata (although still pretty hard to use) is a bit more friendlier to them. The biggest concern however is that without introduction Wikidata will not be able to be populated quickly. It will not be filled with vandalism however as it will only show up for autoconfirmed users so data quality is increased drastically.

Another reason for Wikidata is synchronization. With a rise of private spaceflight and such, this is a perfect opportunity to add more data and collaborate between Wikipedias. By migrating information to Wikidata, information can be written quickly and accurately, and with the rise of Wikifunction it might not be long that having local infobox is obsolete.

Wait! What about Template:Infobox rocket stage?
Template:Infobox rocket stage uses a subtemplate of Template:Infobox rocket called Template:Infobox rocket/stage. In the first phase of Wikidata transition, these engines will still technically supported, but without Wikidata functionality. Template:Infobox rocket stage will be completely revamped in the future. This is what happens when you're being lazy and don't future-proof your work

Wikibase items

 * Note: Legacy infobox is not supported due to immense complexity and high risk
