Hi, I noticed you are the creator of Template:Infobox Speedway team and I've been playing around with the idea a little to get things to hide etc. Please have a look at my mockup on User:Foxhill/content to add/Test and the example of it used on User:Foxhill/content to add/sandbox. Any comments would be welcome.
Also, I have created the page for the Speedway Elite League and Template:Speedway Elite League to go with it. As I'm not a follower of Speedway can I ask you to have a look at both and make sure they are correct?
Many thanks - Foxhill 03:13, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I've knocked one up quickly at User:Foxhill/content to add/Test3 which is basically the same kind as the football one but a bit more user friendly.
e.g. you can use it as a standalone inclusion such as
| Sheffield Tigers - Current squad |
|---|
|
1 Ricky Ashworth 2 Ben Wilson 3 Andre Compton (c) 4 James Birkinshaw 5 Joel Parsons 6 Paul Cooper 7 James Cockle Manager: Reg Wilson |
or call it as a template like
| Sheffield Tigers - Current squad |
|---|
|
1 Ricky Ashworth 2 Ben Wilson 3 Andre Compton (c) 4 James Birkinshaw 5 Joel Parsons 6 Paul Cooper 7 James Cockle Manager: Reg Wilson |
You'll notice it's a little more configurable than the other variant, but if I've made a huge mistake somewhere - shout.
If everything is OK then I'll move it into template space later on today. Foxhill 02:35, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Re: Adding year, you can already do this with the squadtitle = parameter in the template, i.e.
{{User:Foxhill/content to add/Test3
| bgcolor = #0000FF
| bordercolor = yellow
| textcolor = yellow
| teamname = Sheffield Tigers
| squadtitle = 2007 riders
| name1 = [[Ricky Ashworth|Ricky Ashworth]]
| name2 = [[Ben Wilson (speedway rider)|Ben Wilson]]
| name3 = [[Andre Compton|Andre Compton]] (c)
| name4 = [[James Birkinshaw|James Birkinshaw]]
| name5 = [[Joel Parsons|Joel Parsons]]
| name6 = [[Paul Cooper (speedway rider)|Paul Cooper]]
| name7 = [[James Cockle (speedway rider)|James Cockle]]
| managername = [[Reg Wilson|Reg Wilson]]
}}
gives
| Sheffield Tigers - 2007 riders |
|---|
|
1 Ricky Ashworth 2 Ben Wilson 3 Andre Compton (c) 4 James Birkinshaw 5 Joel Parsons 6 Paul Cooper 7 James Cockle Manager: Reg Wilson |
I'll also move this from my test space into {{Speedway squad}} in a minute - Foxhill 12:59, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You might be interested to know i'v been playing around with the Infobox Speedway team and created Template:Infobox Speedway national team. I'v also started off a Great Britain speedway team page but it needs a bit more content! Joe p15 14:00, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
