Blanks
I've noticed that some options in this infobox are
- showing when they're not filled in;
- not showing when they are filled in.
In other infoboxes blanks are not shown automatically and vice versa. Any ideas?

I've done some coding in the sand box. We can automatically leave empty options blank with the function #if. See Template:Sandbox. When we find the time, we may include this function in this infobox. --Frans (talk) 16:28, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
