Hey, we do not use templates anymore but transclude the tables and stuff. Take a look here what i mean. I can transclude them if you want. Afterwards we can speedy delte the template(s). Kante4 (talk) 14:03, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kante4:

Do as you wish, as long as you keep every functionality, including |showteam=, and switch every page using the template to use transclusion.
Talks about A wikipage should be conducted on its Talk page, not in users talk pages. I've cut-and-pasted your message. Deancarmeli (talk) 14:39, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, sorry. I think those functions are working but not 100% sure. It's done the same for every other "ball sport" for the 2020 Olympics. Kante4 (talk) 15:38, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kante4: As I've warned, you've broken the |showteam= functionality. If it won't be fixed, I will revert your edits. Deancarmeli (talk) 22:03, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No templates should be used. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 22:54, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe someone can figure out how to insert it, i don't have enough knowledge how to do that stuff. I tried with several ideas but none worked so far. But yeah, templates are not used for those olympics (anymore) per here... Maybe @Primefac: has an idea how to do that? Kante4 (talk) 07:15, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Sportsfan 1234:@Kante4:Than maybe the topic should be brought up for farther discussion. I don't see how the lack of templates justifies the loss of template functionalities. Deancarmeli (talk) 07:22, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I'm a little late to this, busy week. This looks (from a quick glance at a few of the articles) to be resolved? Primefac (talk) 09:28, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac: I think so too but the only thing missing (per above) is a "showteam" function, which i do not know if this is possible. For me, not needed but if we can work it out how to imsert it, i have nothing against it. Kante4 (talk) 09:42, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Forgive me, it's been a while since I've dealt with the sports table module; what does the showteam function do, and why is it necessary here? Primefac (talk) 09:56, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It bolds the team (in the standings) you want to highlight. It works with the sports module(s) but not with the transclusion option. For me it is not necessary like i said, but @Deancarmeli: would like to include it and i tried to but failed. Kante4 (talk) 10:15, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac: This isn't yet resolved.
@Kante4:The |showteam= function can work in transclusion, BUT only if only sports tables are transcluded. In our case, the usage of Linescore prevents the usage of that function. A solution can be to use a template for the tables, and restore all functionalities. Deancarmeli (talk) 10:42, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I'm not seeing anything obvious after a quick glance at the module (and none of its other uses like this one do what you're asking for), but Frietjes is way more familiar with the module than I. Primefac (talk) 12:53, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac: What were you looking for that you couldn't find? Deancarmeli (talk) 13:09, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
