Template:Winning percentage/doc

Usage

This template calculates and displays the winning percentage for sports teams given three parameters: wins, losses and ties. Those three parameters are unnamed.

{{Winning percentage|<wins>|<losses>|<ties>}}

Wins and losses are required; ties are optional.

The result is displayed as a decimal point followed by three digits, as is standard in sports standings. Including |leading_zero=y will add a leading 0 before the period (.), while adding |record=y will show the record followed by the winning percentage.

In scenarios where ties are not regarded as half a win, using |ignore_ties=y will omit ties and equate the winning percentage exactly as wins divided by the total number of games/matches played (i.e. wins plus draws plus losses).

Code	Result	Explanation	Calculation
{{Winning percentage|30|20}}	.600	<win> / <total>	.600 = 30 / (30+20)
{{Winning percentage|30|20|50}}	.550	(<win> + (<ties>/2)) / <total>	.550 = (30+(50/2)) / (30+20+50)
{{Winning percentage|30|20|50|ignore_ties=y}}	.300	<win> / <total-without-ties>	.300 = 30 / (30 + 20 + 50)
{{Winning percentage|100|50|record=y}}	100–50 (.667)	Showing records along with calculated percentage
{{Winning percentage|100|50|3|leading_zero=y|record=y}}	100–50–3 (0.663)	showing records and percentage with leading zero
{{Winning percentage|100|50|leading_zero=y}}	0.667	show percentage with leading zero
{{Winning percentage|100|0}}	1.000	100% winning
{{Winning percentage|0|4}}	.000	0% winning
{{Winning percentage|0|0}}	–	No match played, so a percentage is not mathematically possible
