Updating for active rosters

[edit]

When updating rosters here, I have found that if you sort the players by 'status' at the clubs' rosters pages, you will get in reverse alphabetical order (click 2 more times for alphabetical order) the 22 who are active and the rest are 'reassigned'. This should mean we only need one reference after "current as of < date >" and only need to modify the access date within the citation. Should make things a lot easier. Also, be aware that the 35 man rosters are dynamic - players will be added to and removed from the list as the season progresses, so best to give it a quick glance over. I have been listing the changes in the edit summary to keep track of changes, but if there are too many changes then I guess don't worry about it? Meh :P  Qwertyqwas  (talk)  15:59, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, so I got carried away and started re-formatting the inactive rosters (I should have done it in sandbox, I always forget). What do you think? (see Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne rosters) I like the extra positional detail and it makes changing players between 'active' and 'inactive' a lot easier, but it does stretch the box and doesn't look quite as neat. Let me know what you think, I don't mind changing it back. :)  Qwertyqwas  (talk)  05:02, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think the idea's fine - the MLB rosters use the same sort of thing. Like you said though I'm not too sure about the look. some of the things with the MLB ones that allows them to "get away with it" is they don't break up the inactive pitchers by l/r (so inactive is a bit shorter), they break up active pitchers by rotation/bullpen/closer (so active is a bit longer), they have more coaches to list, and put their key under the coaches... all of which means it looks a bit more balanced.
How about a tweak to your method? No split for "reserves", they just go under the positional heading. And if there's no player under a heading (like "catchers" for Sydney at the moment) don't display the heading. That sound ok?  Afaber012  (talk)  21:31, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
