I tried doing this myself but I couldn't figure out the right syntax. Can somebody add a parameter to this template for listing alternate pseudonyms/nicknames for the professional gamer? —Entropy ( talk) 21:37, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Template:Infobox eSports player → Template:Infobox video game player – A) Removes the reliance on the "esports" verbiage. (c.f. WP:ESPORTS now.) B) Perhaps a marginally better reason is that "video game player" is preferred by WP:NCVG for naming disambiguation; I think it reasonable to avoid the possible jargon in the context of the template name as well as provide for a somewhat congruous name of the template.

Should this infobox be made to accept modules such that Template:Infobox Twitch streamer and/or Template:Infobox YouTube personality can be inserted as sub-boxes? Many eSports/video game players have significant followings on those platforms to the point where it is a main part of their career. Cheers, -- SVTCobra ( talk) 20:47, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
I would like to revert this template to this revision. Some esports players play professionally for different games, and it would make it easier to distinguish which teams he/she played for which games. It would look like the infobox here to the right. Thanks. Pbrks ( talk) 22:54, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Wanted to add a suggestion for this template. If you look at the infoboxes of active professional sports players, many of them are color coded according to what team they play. Would it be possible to do that with this template? I feel like it would make it a bit easier to identify the player's current team or if they're not on a team at the moment.

The colors are generated by whatever team is given for team=

team=[[Dignitas (esports)|Dignitas]]
, for example,
I would propose following changes to the template:
league
parameter instead of just having a list of every league a player has ever played in.status
.
coach
.
If the player is not on a team, the game
and role
parameters are moved to "Career information", unless the new parameters career_games
and career_role
are used.
career_start
, career_end
, coach_start
, coach_end
.career_earnings
.
hometown
parameter.
I've made several examples in my sandbox to show how they would look. Feedback is appreciated. Pbrks ( talk) 22:24, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
@ Pbrks: You may want to ask PrimeFac to run his bot for cleaning up invalid parameters: Category:Pages using infobox video game player with unknown parameters. -- ferret ( talk) 23:00, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
@ Pbrks, Izno, Frietjes, and Jonesey95: Template isn't handling missing upright parameter well, causing Bogus file option "upright={{{upright}}}" in 12 mainspace articles. — Anomalocaris ( talk) 01:32, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
