Template talk:Cycling past winner rider

message: I'm thinking that using the  template will make this listing methid more consistent with the rest of Wikipedia. It would be quite easy to change I think...
We would have to change:
|
| style="text-align: left;" |
| 
| style="text-align: left;" |
|
to something like
|
| style="text-align: left;" colspan="2" | 
| style="text-align: left;" |
|
I don't want to put this in though straight away in case it breaks something somewhere and I haven't noticed! Regards, SeveroTC 20:31, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Will that avoid the use of Template:Cycling pw mid? (colspan="2") I don't know exactly how this code works, so if we an avoid 'pw mid' I think this change would be very helpful. What is flagathlete used for?Drunt (talk) 12:06, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Looks fine. Right now it's probably a bit confusing for countries with similar flags(e.g. ,   ). I can help you check a few articles to see that it's properly working. Drunt (talk) 15:55, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I like this template. To improve it, I would like to request an extra reason option for the no "no race" template. To explain why there was no race in that year.
For backwards compatibility, if no reason is given, it should just render like before, so



should give
{| border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2"	       	       		
    	       	Rider  		Team
1943	No race	No race		
If a reason is given, I propose to display it in the "Team" column, so



should give
{| border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2"	       	       	              	
    	       	Rider  	              	Team
1943	No race	No race	(World War II)	(World War II)
I tried to do it myself, but all my tests in the sandbox failed with the #if-template. Maybe I am not smart enough... If this is a stupid request, don't hesitate to say so. If this is an easy request, would somebody please implement it? --EdgeNavidad (talk) 09:41, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

message: We currently have  for instances where there were two winners in an exceptional circumstance. The next steps are for to provide a template for when there were two winners as a matter of course, for example six-day races and two-up time trials. I'm not sure how to deal with this, because on the one hand I would like to place the riders names side-by-side, but this doesn't work well for sorting the names into alphabetical order.
We also need a template for when there was a team winner rather than an individual (representing a team). In this case, what should we put in the "rider" column?

message: How is one supposed to enter "no winner" in case the former "winner" has been disqualified, but no new winner has been selected (as for instance Leonardo Bertagnolli, "winner" of Tour du Haut Var 2006, who was disqualified from 2003 to 2011 by UCI in 2014 - to make it worse the article uses Template:Sortname as well - it is hard for an amateur like me to edit and correct a table like that!)
