Corporation(s)?
More than one article including the infobox seems to use the variable "estates" interchangebly for real estates and brand assets etc. Would it be helpful to offer to a more specific variables for the latter information, such as "properties", "corporations" or something to that effect?

 * I've added  as a parameter. --Paul_012 (talk) 06:21, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Coat of arms caption
I changed the image to coat_of_arms at Ancestry of George Washington. coat_of_arms_caption isn't showing up and I'm not sure why. -- Auric   talk  14:59, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Strange. While speaking of it, I observe that "coat_of_arms_caption" exemplifies as "motto". Still, we have a dstinct variable "motto". Why not move "motto" variable to the top, pretty right under the coat of arms capton image? PPEMES (talk) 07:15, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Proposed change to "Cadet branches"
Hello, I would like to propose changing "Cadet branches" to "Branches". An alternative would be to add an "Elder branches" option. What do you think? --Brookford (talk) 22:08, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
 * There are the variables "Parent family" and "Cadet branches". Could you provide more arguments for renaming the latter to "Branches"? PPEMES (talk) 11:12, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Sometimes the elder branch is different from the parent family. If a family split into 3 branches, what would the other 2 be called on the page of the most cadet branch?--Brookford (talk) 06:07, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

"Ethnicity" parameter
Does anyone adding "ethnicity" parameter for this article, House of Bourbon. --ZmeytheDragon16 (talk) 22:16, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Proposal
Shouldn't this template have "seat" as an important parameter, in addition to the "estate" parameter?-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  23:28, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 22 May 2021
Currently, Infobox family flags a page in "Show preview" that uses branches by displaying a warning that "branches" is unsupported and then when the page is published, it adds the page to Category:Pages using infobox family with unknown parameters, but it still displays the label and value in the Infobox on the published page. So, if branches is still supported, it should be added to the code that checks for unsupported parameters. On the other hand, if branches should not be supported, then the code that allows it to be displayed (label27/data27) should be removed. – 108.56.139.120 (talk) 07:03, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Let me try rewording the request.
 * In the  section of the code, change this:

 * This change will fix the template so that it does not warn in "Show preview" that branches as an unknown parameter, as branches is supported in the  section of the code.

Can we get a parameter Family seat for this Infobox - we have it for the "family clan" infobox, but it's even more approprate and needed for this one.-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  15:25, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Semi-protection-unlocked.svg Not done: According to the page's protection level you should be able to edit the page yourself. If you seem to be unable to, please reopen the request with further details. Curbon7 (talk) 05:06, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanx,, I dared to do it on my own, and was half successful. I don't possess the necessary skills nor experience, however, I managed to include two parameter but one doesn't appears in the template, and I can't identify exact reason. Could you help me find the reason why this second parameter did not appear?-- ౪ Santa ౪ 99°  20:10, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * There was a typo in the code, which I've corrected. Celia Homeford (talk) 14:24, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

Sibling duos/trios
Is this suitable for professional collaborations within a family, or is there a better template for that? Arlo James Barnes 17:54, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

cadet branches wl to Cadet branch?
The term "cadet" or "cadet branch" is not well known, so I think a link to it's article would be helpful in the template. Bogger (talk) 07:13, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Separate "name" and "surname" parameters?
Is it possible to 'unmerge' the "name" and "surname" parameters? Obviously for most families these will be the same, but for some nobles and royals, they'll be different. For example on House of Windsor someone has crowbarred Mountbatten-Windsor in as a "cadet branch" (which it is not) very possibly in an attempt to reflect this. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 15:13, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Pronunciation
Why is there no parameter "pronunciation"?-- Carnby (talk) 18:41, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
