title instead of "head"[edit]

Different UN agencies have different types of "heads", such as secretary-general or director-general, these are substantive distinctions, therefore a head1title = or something like this should be added.

Moreover, most organisations have a deputy, this should also be possible to add


Why would there be a link to commons in the infobox? Seems to fly in the face of WP:SELF. 132.69.231.148 (talk) 01:34, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Harmonizing with the Template:Infobox organization[edit]

This infobox should be more harmonized with the Template:Infobox organization and Template:Infobox Geopolitical organization. Taking account the need to present the UN specificity, the merger is probably not the best option; however, for the organization-related fields should be the same.

Maps[edit]

Why there is no map tag? It should have it for articles like United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific. --109.92.46.88 (talk) 08:12, 9 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I added map tag, but have little problem with positioning. I want map to be at the bottom of template, right above map_caption. Can anyone help whit this? --Milan.j (talk) 08:41, 9 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Expand the Infobox[edit]

I recommend to expand the "Infobox United Nations" because it does not contain a whole lot of information. In other Wikipedia-domains, there are more information presentable for peacekeeping missions such as budget, fatalities, current strength, initial resolution, subsequent resolutions, a map, origin of police and military contributing countries, etc. Another opportunity is the creation of a new, more appropriate infobox tailored for UN peace missions. One example: UNMISS German Wikipedia --Schwafm6 (talk)
