This is a work-in-progress proposal for a migration to an updated infobox based on {{tl|infobox constituency}}.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ Proposed migration parameter mappings
|-
! {{tl|Infobox Malaysia electoral district}}
! {{tl|Infobox constituency}}
|-
| <code>name</code>
| <code>name</code>, obviously
|-
| <code>state</code>
| <code>district</code>, with <code>district_label</code> set to "State/territory" in the template
|-
| <code>image</code><br /><code>imagemap</code> (duplicated functionality)
| <code>image</code> or <code>map''X''</code>, as appropriate (see docs on infobox constituency)
|-
| <code>caption</code>
| <code>caption''X''</code>
|-
| <code>coordinates</code><br /><code>coordinates_caption</code><br /><code>coordinates_date</code>
| No equivalent (having it set to the constituency office per current docs is probably not best practice anyway)
|-
| <code>fed-status</code>
| If specified with any value, this will set <code>type</code> to "[[Dewan Rakyat]]" (linked); the value itself will be ignored since the template will know if it is "former" or "future" when <code>abolished</code> or <code>future</code> is set, respectively
|-
| <code>state-status</code>
| Ignored – federal and state constituencies already have their own separate pages
|-
| <code>fed-constituency-number</code>
| Not used; apparently this was copy-pasted from {{tl|Infobox Canada electoral district}} without being adapted to local use
|-
| <code>fed-created</code><br /><code>state-created</code>
| <code>year</code>
|-
| <code>fed-abolished</code><br /><code>state-abolished</code>
| <code>abolished</code>
|-
| <code>fed-election-first</code><br /><code>fed-election-last</code><br /><code>state-election-first</code><br /><code>state-election-last</code>
| No current equivalent
|-
| <code>fed-rep</code><br /><code>state-rep</code>
| <code>members</code>, with <code>members_label</code> set to "MP" or "MLA"
|-
| <code>fed-rep-party</code><br /><code>state-rep-party</code>
| <code>party</code>
|-
| <code>demo-census-date</code><br /><code>demo-pop</code><br /><code>demo-pop-ref</code>
| <code>population</code>
|-
| <code>demo-electors-date</code><br /><code>demo-electors</code><br /><code>demo-electors-ref</code>
| <code>electorate</code>
|-
| <code>demo-area</code><br /><code>demo-area-ref</code>
| <code>area</code>
|-
| <code>demo-cd</code><br /><code>demo-csd</code>
| No current equivalent; probably irrelevant
|-
| No equivalent
| <code>seats</code> (will be set to "1" by default)<br /><code>local_council</code><br /><code>previous</code><br /><code>next</code>
