Observations from the exercise:

  • Neither template supports track (front, rear or average)
  • infobox tractor does not warn about unknown parameters
  • Infobox automobile is wider, so the picture is larger
  • Infobox automobile uses |weight= to mean kerb weight, but the meaning of weight is not specified in infobox tractor
  • Infobox tractor has fields for two kinds of power, but none for torque
  • several of the row titles are linked to pages that look a little odd for tractors
