[edit] Spacing

Can you please add spacing on the left-hand side to avoid the page text running into the template? A margin-left attribute should fix it. Fedgin | Talk 15:03, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Logo

What happened to the club logo appearing in the infobox? Surely this should have been discussed before the change...?  glennb28  t/ 17:09, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Here is it. --Angelo 18:27, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Preceding/succeeding?

Would it be possible to add "preceding season" and "succeeding season" parameters to the infobox? - PeeJay 11:35, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

It would be good if this could be calculated automatically without an editor having to add more info to the template on the article page, similar to what I did at Template:Infobox World Road Running.
! Previous Championships:
{{!}} [[{{#time:Y |{{{date}}} - 1 year}} IAAF World Road Running Championships|{{#time:Y |{{{date}}} - 1 year}}]], {{flagicon{{!}}{{{prevcntry}}}}} [[{{{prevcity}}}]]}}
|-
! Next Championships:
| [[{{#time:Y |{{{date}}} + 1 year}} IAAF World Road Running Championships|{{#time:Y |{{{date}}} + 1 year}}]], {{flagicon|{{{nextcntry}}}}} [[{{{nextcity}}}]]
Unfortunately, to do this all club-season articles would need to have a standard naming convention, which I don't think they have at the moment. — Gasheadsteve Talk to me 11:54, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, that would be great, but like you say it's not possible at the minute. Until such time, then, I think it would be appropriate to just put in the parameters and then pipelink to the appropriate articles from there. - PeeJay 13:33, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
I've had a go at adding this information. Have a look at Bristol Rovers F.C. season 2006-07 to see what it looks like in action. — Gasheadsteve Talk to me 19:33, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
This solution looks quite weird, who can ensure the two different columns to be equally sized? If you really want a succession box, you should think of it as a separate table. But I think it's not worth, better to consider creating navboxes instead. --Angelo 19:38, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Agreed, it's not very pretty. Perhaps someone else could have a go at improving it... — Gasheadsteve Talk to me 13:38, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
