What about giving the decades their own line. I think it makes it a lot easier to read and find the year you're looking for.

Personally, I prefer it as it, taking less vertical real estate. Also, if it is changed, I think it will look odd when 2010 is sitting on a line by itself on the bottom. --After Midnight 0001 23:42, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
I like it, is gets a lot easier to find what you're looking for. And when the time comes for a 2010 article, we'll think of something. Maybe adding all the 2011, 2012, 2013, even without linking to non-existing articles, just thre numbers there, to make this look ok.--Serte 10:39, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
I'll change it for now, as well as adding the v.d.e, so that people can comment/change it back. Manipe 20:42, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 2010

Personally, I see no need for having a link to 2010 Formula One season (or 2011 Formula One season) in the template yet. But since it's there, someone must disagree… What are your opinions on the subject? Fred Bradstadt 12:47, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

There is some speculation specifically related to 2010 (possible return of turbocharging, bio-diesels, aerodynamic freeze, etc). It seems reasonable (to me) to record this speculation in an article called 2010 Formula One season. And if it's reasonable to have an article, then I think it's reasonable to link to it from the template. DH85868993 13:43, 22 February 2007 (UTC)


There was an earlier 2010 Formula One season article which was deleted due per WP:CRYSTAL back in August. Once more sourced detail became available and the article got recreated, I went ahead and added it to the template. I figure that as long as the article exists, you might as well have a link to it in the template to make it easier to navigate to.--After Midnight 0001 14:36, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
