Template talk:Infobox cycling race report

message: Since teams' nations are meaningless, should this field be removed? Or would it be best to wait to do that until it's been removed from each instance of this in the article space (in case that would create an error display of some sort, I don't know).

message: I tried, today, to implement a fixed minimum width in this infobox, with no luck... The problem was that it also made it a fixed maximum, so the infoboxes experienced wrapping... But to have a infobox like this looks awful! Is there anyone with the competence to make this happen?
BTW: Why isn't this template made on the standard -template, like  and  amongst many other? lil2mas (talk) 17:30, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I used min-width instead of width and the above link now looks fine. This template was made slightly before the -template became a meta template - if anyone wants to take the time to change it they are more than welcome to! SeveroTC 16:26, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, Severo! =) Looks good now... I don't know these templates that well, so I don't think I should be the one changing it. But I would be grateful to the one who do, since it will make later changes easier, in comparison. =) lil2mas (talk) 17:37, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

message: There are several reasons why the average speed is not reliable in many races, especially stage races.
*Bonification time bonuses, mean that time is under-recorded for anyone who has been in the top three on any stage.
*Allocation of same time in bunch finishes means the time of those not at the very front of the group is under-recorded.
*Rounding each stage to the nearest km means that tour length could be up to 10 km out.
*Claims of av speed to the nearest thousandths of a km/h (as on 2011 Vuelta a España, and using that data for this example) suggest that we know the distance to an accuracy of 22 metres, or the time to less than 4 seconds.  Clearly this is indefensible: ten times that error margin is unrealistic, and even to one tenth of a km/h (400 seconds, or 2.2km) is open to challenge.
If the only reliable ave speed is to the nearest km/h, it is not very useful comparative info.  Suggest remove the field from the template. Kevin McE (talk) 22:59, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

message: Googlebot thinks the 1999 Tour de France winner is "Lance Armstrong none". Other visually impaired users may also be unable to perceive the strikethrough. (See MOS:NOSTRIKE.) I propose putting disqualifications in separate lines, adding parameters as needed. Not sure how to order it, though.
This order retains finish order, but would be confusing if readers expect official rank order.
First DQ	Lance Armstrong (USA)  	(U.S. Postal Service)
Winner  	none[a]                	
Second  	Alex Zülle (SUI)       	(Banesto)
Third   	Fernando Escartín (ESP)	(Kelme–Costa Blanca)
Clearer to retain official rank order by shifting disqualifications to the bottom? With or without a horizontal line separator? With or without finish position in strikethrough?
Winner  	none[a]                	
Second  	Alex Zülle (SUI)       	(Banesto)
Third   	Fernando Escartín (ESP)	(Kelme–Costa Blanca)
        	                       	
First DQ	Lance Armstrong (USA)  	(U.S. Postal Service)

thread_title:  Disqualifications in separate rows 

message: I'm trying to update the infobox for 2023 Tour of Britain to insert the Tour of Britain.svg  into the first color field. But when I do, the code breaks, and I can't quite figure out how to fix it. When I insert the template code for the icon ('Tour of Britain') the infobox template seems to be auto-inserting the prefix of "jersey " which subsequently breaks the link. I tried inserting the whole cjersey template code, but that doesn't work either. Obviously a newcomer to using these kinds of templates, so if someone would be so kind as as to guide me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it! 
Update: I found a work around, but I'm not sure if it's the appropriate one. In the edit preview, I click on the link generated by the broken code, which takes me to an upload page, where I've uploaded the image file. This works just fine, but it means uploading a duplicate, instead of using the existing file in the commons. I made the file, so there's no license issue, but it doesn't seem like the best resource allocation for wikimedia.
