Usage
[edit]The {{Infobox demographic cohort}} template is used to provide standardized infoboxes for generational cohorts that fall between two widely defined generations—often referred to as "micro-generations." This includes groups such as Xennials, Zillennials, and "Geriatric Millennials."
This infobox is designed to:
- Visually distinguish micro-generations with a slightly modified color scheme
- Support collages using {{multiple image}}
- Clearly indicate generational boundaries (e.g. "between Millennials and Gen Z")
- Present traits, technology, and cultural associations
