The

Infobox Video Game indexing problem

object that is put on a page in Citizendium appears to prevent the whole page from being indexed on Google. I tried making it an infobox for film or book instead, but those remove details in the box that are specific to video games, such as the developer(s). I’m not sure how to fix this, I think this is something that needs to be fixed in the template, or if this is not something that can be changed then maybe the information that can be made the caption of an image or put in a table on the page?

Here are the five pages with the video game infobox if you want to take a look: https://citizendium.org/wiki/Left_4_Dead https://citizendium.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls:_Arena https://citizendium.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_II:_Daggerfall https://citizendium.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_III:_Morrowind https://citizendium.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_IV:_Oblivion

And it won’t index them because something in their code makes Google Analytics think these are events: https://search.google.com/search-console/r/events?resource_id=sc-domain%3Acitizendium.org
