Rugby League is a hybrid sport in what way? Londo 06 22:26, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
I have removed this template from the rugby league article following on from another editor. Along with the problems of notability there is the biggest problem which is the title that suggests that rugby league is a hybrid sport. The collapsed box makes it appear that way. A name change may well be enough for me, but I can't speak for whether that will appease others. Londo 06 09:36, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
I'm as surprised as you are that editors on the other sports' articles haven't said anything about it. It took me a while before I noticed it down there. It's fine for this template to contain a link to rugby league's article, but that doesn't mean it should appear in it. This is because the hybrid sports do not define rugby league but rather rugby league defines a hybrid sport. It is for this reason that Template:Steven Spielberg does not appear in the 1990s in film article despite containing a link to it. That period of Spielberg's career is defined by the 1990s in cinema, but the 1990s in cinema are not defined by that period of his career. Templates do not always have to appear in all articles they contain links to.-- Jeff79 ( talk) 10:44, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
Just as the "Team Sports" template does, it gives the casual reader the (false) impression that rugby league falls under the category of "Hybrid Sports". I've outlined clearly for you the problem with it.-- Jeff79 ( talk) 10:53, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
So you agree that rugby league is not defined as being a hybrid sport, but you're insisting that this template remains in the rugby league article simply because it contains a link to it? I've already explained above why that's not a good enough reason.-- Jeff79 ( talk) 11:00, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
I think the claims that volata is a hybrid of handball and soccer are dubious. Volata was highly influenced by native Italian football codes, and also by rugby as well. -- MacRusgail ( talk) 19:11, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
