Template talk:S-sports

message: I really can't get on with this whole "sporting positions" terminology. It just reads like a crude compromise, and actually means very little. If we are talking about "Sporting titles" such as championship wins, or other major competition victories then these aren't really "positions". On the other hand, if we are talking about positions of responsibility, then you either need the full "positions of responsibility" or the shorter "Sporting offices". "Sporting positions" jut sounds like a new chapter of the Kama Sutra! Pyrope 14:18, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The current template appears as follows:
|-
! colspan="3" style="background: #99ff66;" | Sporting positions
This template exists as a header template akin to Template:s-off, except that unlike s-off, this one takes no parameters.  It is intended for use in a series of succession boxes to allow sporting positions (directors / managers/ winners) to be included in the same listing, thereby avoiding the previous inelegant practice of using  and  to visually separate such offices.
To make this template parameter-ready, please replace the code with this (it will not change the way the template currently works, it just makes it capable of displaying more specific customs as per Template:s-roy.  As soon as the edit is done, I will add a /doc page to link to it.):

|-
! colspan="3" style="background:#99ff66;" |



Thank you!  And I think I may just add the /doc now to make the transition even smoother.  Thank you again!–Whaleyland ( Talk • Contributions ) 16:54, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Change Gaelic games

message: The green in the background is just a little too strong and jarring to the eye, especially if the succession box is forcing the header to be quite wide (e.g. in Terry Neill). Can I propose changing the colour to a slightly lighter colour, such as CCFF99? Example given below: 

|-
! colspan="3" style="background:#ccff99;" width=250|

instead of:

|-
! colspan="3" style="background:#99ff66;" width=250|

Thoughts welcome, thank you. Qwghlm 12:26, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I do think the colour should be changed, but why do we need a green at all rather than having it the same colour as the rest of the template? - The Daddy 06:28, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There is a reason why headers have colours: so that navigation can be made easier for readers in larger succession boxes. A reader will look for the header that will be above the title they look for, and the easiest way to find a header is to look for the colour the reader knows it will have. I believe this issue has already been discussed in Succession Box Standardization. Waltham, The Duke of 08:19, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Since we distinguish between Summer and Winter Olympics, there's no good reason to not do the same for the Paralympics, particularly in light of an article I was just looking at where an athlete competed in both summer and winter paras, but was flagbearer in the winter only.  His suc-box was confusing, see Mehmet Çekiç.  Please add another parameter so we can use this in a more agile and appropriate fashion and to stop the prejudice against lumping all para-athletes into one pile.
