:The price section of the infobox states that any sell prices are half of the buy price, but this isn’t true for many badges. Is there a way to indicate this in the infobox itself? Should a sell price section be added to the infobox to simplify this, like what was in the original infobox?<br>

Also, if a badge cannot be bought and can only be found in the field, should its price be listed as 0 coins, or could a new icon be created for this? I feel like there could be a better way to distinguish between a badge costing 0 coins and a badge being unable to be bought whatsoever. —[[User:Technetium|Technetium]] ([[User talk:Technetium|talk]]) 13:20, July 5, 2024 (EDT)

:Working on badges again. I did figure out the above question (using em dashes), but now I really think a sell price section separate from buy price should be added, as in the original template. Many pages with the new badge confused buy and sell and put the sell price into the section when the badge can't actually be bought (ie [[Return Postage]]), and the half price part doesn't apply to them. Can someone split buy and sell prices in the template? --[[User:Technetium|Technetium]] ([[User talk:Technetium|talk]]) 15:45, July 19, 2024 (EDT)

== Possibly merge to move infobox? ==
{{talk}}
I'm not very good with templates, but I was thinking that this could perhaps be merged with [[Template:PM move infobox]] somehow. While not all moves have associated badges, or the other way around, there's enough overlap that the two separate infoboxes feel a bit redundant. Not only that, but the "per game" structure of the badge infobox would fix the eyesore that is the current infobox for [[Bomb (Paper Mario series)|Bomb]], as well as the double-infobox situation of [[Super Hammer (move)|Super Hammer]]. I'm curious to know what other people think of this idea. [[User:Blinker|Blinker]] ([[User talk:Blinker|talk]]) 17:25, January 24, 2025 (EST)
