[edit]

Unfortunately, the accessibility of this template is not good. Please see Infobox accessibility for an explanation. The following needs to replace the current rows 11 onwards (to allow 6 entries); but row 8 also needs to be changed, and I'm not sure how to do that.

<code>
| label11     = <span style="font-weight: normal">{{{years1|}}}</span>
| data11a     = {{{league1|}}}
| class11a    = category
| data11b     = {{{role1|}}}
| class11b    = role

| label12     = <span style="font-weight: normal">{{{years2|}}}</span>
| data12a     = {{{league2|}}}
| class12a    = category
| data12b     = {{{role2|}}}

| label13     = <span style="font-weight: normal">{{{years3|}}}</span>
| data13a     = {{{league3|}}}
| class13a    = category
| data13b     = {{{role3|}}}
| class13b    = role
| class13b    = role

| label14     = <span style="font-weight: normal">{{{years4|}}}</span>
| data14a     = {{{league4|}}}
| class14a    = category
| data14b     = {{{role4|}}}
| class14b    = role

| label15     = <span style="font-weight: normal">{{{years5|}}}</span>
| data15a     = {{{league5|}}}
| class15a    = category
| data15b     = {{{role5|}}}
| class15b    = role

| header16    = {{#if:{{{confederation|}}}|International}}

| label17     = Years
| data17a     = {{#if:{{{confederation|}}}|'''League'''}}
| data17b     = {{#if:{{{internationalrole|}}}|'''Role'''}}

| label18     = <span style="font-weight: normal">{{{internationalyears|}}}</span>
| data18a     = {{{confederation|}}}
| class18a    = category
| data18b     = {{{internationalrole|}}}
| class18b    = role

As previously explained, this can't be done without adjusting every current deployment of the template. If you'd like to go about getting a bot requested for the work, then I'll deal with this one after {{infobox Football biography 2}} has been deployed.

Thank you; but it can be done without adjusting every current deployment of the template. Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 13:57, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Not without invalidating a substantial chunk of data in each infobox, which isn't really an acceptable solution (the visually impaired are not going to be any more able to read data which no longer exists). We'll get to this eventually, but it's a big job and needs to be done properly to minimise disruption and editor workload. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 09:50, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've been careful to craft the above change in a way that means that there will be no such invalidation, and no lost data. Why do you think otherwise? Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 09:58, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, right, I see you've left the current row 10 as it is. That would work, I suppose, but considering how many templates need to be transitioned anyway it would probably be better just to do both at once (get a bot to update the articles and remove support for the inaccessible version at the same time).
