Hey, this is getting to big... :)

There are some things to discuss before applying this template everywhere. "Closed" and "Demolished"? "Surface"? It is too much info since most stadiums featured in WP are still open and "Grass" seems to be the surface in the majority.

This should go through Wikipedia:WikiProject_Football first.

Yes, I agree. I'd be happy to change it to everyone's liking. The conversation seems to have died on the topic, so I'm just waiting to hear what elements should be removed and what should be kept. --Jeff 16:41, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

I made parameters 'Demolished' and 'Remodeled' optional (they will not appear if not defined). If you believe other parameters should be set optional, leave me a message, or do it yourself following the already optionalized parameters. Mariano(t/c) 06:44, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
