Further Proxyip templates improvements

I would like to do some further improvements to {{Proxyip4}}, {{Proxyip6}} and {{Proxyip}}. The changes would be as follows

  • Avoid indentation in {{Proxyip4}} and {{Proxyip6}}. Built-in indentation is not present in other similar templates, and it is very inconvenient when adding further indentation or using them inline. This change would also require a small fix through the archives to avoid breaking previous formatting. I would just add a colon before each occurrence of the template in the archives.
  • Make {{Proxyip}} the main template, automatically selecting {{Proxyip4}} or {{Proxyip6}} depending on the input. See previous thread. I have this change ready in a sandbox.

Wikipedia:WikiProject on open proxies/Example would be changed to something like this:

* {{Proxyip|<!-- Place IP you are reporting here -->}}
