[edit] With Template:Infobox baseball team

This is a mock-up of what the infobox looks like with the retooled Template:Infobox baseball team. It's based on Template:Infobox football club and so uses small fonts, etc.

There are a number of optional parameters. I removed the "most recent season" and "manager" parameters. The uniforms are my best guesses from an image search--I did notice that there are different home uniforms for Kobe and Osaka. In any case, that's a minor issue. Would just love to see this template more widely used. Rolando (talk) 03:08, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, the uniforms are indeed different for the different cities, but it's only sleeve color, so it's no big deal. I really like the template. I just shifted the nickname box up higher, since I thought that would be a significant aspect of the team's identity. Anyway, I'm going to start applying this to all the Japan team pages. Thanks a bunch for the help. El Cid 02:52, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Since the infobox was moved to the article, I'm going to remove it here. Looks great! Rolando (talk) 12:45, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
