Usage
[edit]This template is intended for use as a meta-template, which can be used to create sports standings tables, ensuring standardisation between projects.
This is a meta template. Do not transclude this template directly where you want to create a standings table. Instead, use the template provided by particular project, e.g., {{CBB standings start}}, {{CFB standings start}}, and {{CBSB standings start}}.
- Fields for use(copy and paste text below and then fill in the fields)
{{Standings table start| |}}
In order, the two blank fields available for use in the template are:
- 1: The name of the template. This is the name of the template, which will also appear as the title at the top of the template box.
- 2: (Optional) – the article to which the title bar of the template will link.
Note that as this is a meta-template, these two parameters should simply be passed through by the calling template.
In addition, the following named fields exist:
- ties: (Optional) – Set ties=yes to add another column to display the number of tied games project-wide. If some instances of your template use ties while others don't, as in college football where ties were eliminated in 1996, simply pass the parameter through:
| ties={{{ties|}}}
- div-standings: (Optional) – Set div-standings=yes to add more columns to display division standings on a project-wide basis. (Rare - only used when division standings were used as a primary means of determining a division champ, not as a tiebreaker) Most of the time, your template won't use this parameter at all, and the rest of the time, only certain instances of your template will use this parameter, so simply pass it through:
| div-standings={{{div-standings|}}}
- pct: (Optional) – Set pct=yes to Display the winning percentage in a column next to the wins/losses
- editlink: (Option – Set editlink=no to turn off the {{navbar}} view, talk, edit links
Examples
[edit]In general, usage of this template should look like this:
{{Standings table start
| {{{1|}}}
