I agree with both your former suggestion and your latter preference. I'd assumed there would be no wish to do either. If we do add an optional name parameter to MedalTop, I'd also like to include conditional classes "vcard" and "fn" (to add an hCard microformat) if the name is present, changing your:
{| class="infobox" style="width: 23em; font-size: 90%;"
!colspan="3" style="text-align:center; font-size:125%;" | Person name

I realize for most individual sport participants a medal table is sufficient to show results of championships. However, I was wondering if a tweak could be made, so that all international results could be shown? What I mean is WP:HOCKEY uses this to show medal results for players, but since this is a team sport, finishing below 3rd isn't the same as finishing below 3rd in an individual sport. The reason I ask is that, we are having a battle between some users over MOS:ICON with respect to flags. I figure we can skirt the issue by using this template to show all international experience, if the slight tweaks could be made. This way, since many players have this on their pages less editing work would be necessary. Shootmaster 44 ( talk) 08:55, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Does anyone have a problem with me tweaking the layout of the medal template? Specifically, I wan't to put the sport the individual competes in on top of the country he/she competes for. This will put more emphasis on the sport rather than the country the individual competes for. Also, I think it just looks better. An example is below.

Discussion above, from 2008 and from 2009 remain unresolved, and this template-family is still being used as an infobox, for example on Cathy Freeman. How might we best resolve this?
One other possibility would be to run a bot, wrapping it in {{
Infobox person}} or {{
Infobox athlete}} {{
Infobox sportsperson}}, where no parent infobox is already present.
Anyone have any thoughts? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:30, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
(reply to both SFB & Trackinfo) I'm not clear whether your argument is that we don't need to display the subject's name at the top of the medalbox, or that you don't like {{ Infobox sportsperson}}. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:10, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

In order to bring the various medal top templates into one place I suggest that we edit Template:MedalTableTop so that the second line reads:
!colspan="3" style="text-align:center; background-color:#B0C4DE"| {{{Header|Medal record}}}
We could then use that parameter to customise the header of this template. After this edit, we could try merging all the alternative MedalTop templates using this header switching (except for MedalTop - bigger integration issues here).
On a separate issue, can Template:MedalTableTopPic be redirected to Template:MedalTableTop? I see no difference between the outcomes. Similarly, can Template:MedalTeam be merged into Template:MedalSport? They have different semantic uses but are essentially the same usage. SFB 20:32, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
This

A large number of templates (45 as of 30 June 2012) have amassed in Category:Medal infobox templates since their creation in 2006. I think it is a good time to harmonise these templates seeing as they provide pretty much the exact same functions.
In addition to the changes I have requested above, I have created Template:Medal. This not only serves as a way to add the MedalGold/Silver/Bronze aspects of the medal tables, but also replaces the Sport, Competition, and Country templates. The only difference in execution is a single ("|") separating the descriptions. For example, {{Medal|Bronze}} instead of the old {{MedalBronze}}, {{Medal|Sport}} instead of {{MedalSport}}, etc.
This should help us reduce the number of templates from over 40 to just two eventually: Template:Medal and Template:MedalTableTop. I think Template:MedalBottom should be redirected to Template:End (a standard and shorter named template which serves the same purpose). SFB 16:22, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
We're still getting examples of the medal template being used, without the subject's name, in new articles, - for example Miranda Leek. When are we going to resolve the issues, discussed above? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:43, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

User:Rauzaruku recently went on to implement a new order within the medal template box, without previously looking for consensus for change. Therefore, I'm now starting this discussion on his behalf.
As far as I remember, the order in medal box has been (1) date/year (latest on top, earliest at the bottom), and (2) order of event as used by the IAAF. Which then looks like this:
Rauzaruku now suggests a new order (he might explain his reasons here, later), which orders by "importance of medal" (i.e. Gold highest, then Silver, etc.), and then by year (earliest on top, latest at the bottom). It would look like this:

2006 Stuttgart | 100 m |
I find his suggestion confusing, since medals won in the same year aren't aligned together. I prefer the old consensus. Any other opinions? -- bender235 ( talk) 00:43, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
I prefer to order first by color (gold first), then by year (earliest first), and then by event, in the way they are officially ordered (e.g., 100 m, 200 m, 400 m, ..., in track, and freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly, IM, relays in swimming). In my experience this is the order commonly used. Is there any official consensus on this by now, or should we obtain it? Gap9551 ( talk) 20:59, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

I have tested the addition of "sport" and "country_code" parameters in Template:MedalTableTop/sandbox. Please can Template:MedalTableTop be updated with the sandbox version? This will allow easier inclusion of the sport and country information. Most transclusions are for an athlete who has competed in one sport for one country, but we can still retain functionality for athletes who have competed for a multiple of countries/sports by use of the current {{Medal|Sport}} {{Medal|Country}} usages.

Why have the headers in medal templates shifted to the left? They used to be Centered. Was there any discussion of this before the change?-- MorrisIV ( talk) 22:32, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
As this template produces the same output as {{
Medal|Country}}
, I've converted it into a wrapper for the base template. This means that functionality and maintenance is now located in one place (
Template:Medal). I've checked it on a sample of "what links here" articles and haven't found any difference in output. Naturally, if I've broken anything, please feel free to revert me and I'll do my best to fix any problems that I've missed. --

Is there a way to make this template collapse? I'm thinking of Yulieski Gourriel in particular. It seems the template can collapse if it's part of the infobox, but {{ Infobox baseball biography}} doesn't incorporate these medal templates. – Muboshgu ( talk) 22:48, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
In recent edits on Justin Gatlin I noticed that someone added his disqualification from the 2016 Rio 4x100, but then another user removed it stating "Disqualification removed as he was never awarded the medal". Is there precedence for this, that it is typical to only list DQ if done later (such as the drug example given in the template documentation)? If this is indeed the consensus style position, it would perhaps be best to indicate this in the documentation to make it clear. Thanks, JeopardyTempest ( talk) 06:01, 23 August 2016 (UTC)

I am seeing this more and more often. I go to pages with medal templates constantly, its kind of my territory. I keep seeing these blue boxes with a question mark inside instead.

These templates may have problems that make all three columns not in the same width, I've seen that on

(reply to both SFB & Trackinfo) I'm not clear whether your argument is that we don't need to display the subject's name at the top of the medalbox, or that you don't like {{ Infobox sportsperson}}. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:10, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
I've tried to use these medal templates inside {{ Infobox person}} on Reginald Brooks-King, but the result looks wrong. We could do with some documentation and clear examples, please. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:30, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

In order to bring the various medal top templates into one place I suggest that we edit Template:MedalTableTop so that the second line reads:
!colspan="3" style="text-align:center; background-color:#B0C4DE"| {{{Header|Medal record}}}
We could then use that parameter to customise the header of this template. After this edit, we could try merging all the alternative MedalTop templates using this header switching (except for MedalTop - bigger integration issues here).
On a separate issue, can Template:MedalTableTopPic be redirected to Template:MedalTableTop? I see no difference between the outcomes. Similarly, can Template:MedalTeam be merged into Template:MedalSport? They have different semantic uses but are essentially the same usage. SFB 20:32, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

A large number of templates (45 as of 30 June 2012) have amassed in Category:Medal infobox templates since their creation in 2006. I think it is a good time to harmonise these templates seeing as they provide pretty much the exact same functions.
In addition to the changes I have requested above, I have created Template:Medal. This not only serves as a way to add the MedalGold/Silver/Bronze aspects of the medal tables, but also replaces the Sport, Competition, and Country templates. The only difference in execution is a single ("|") separating the descriptions. For example, {{Medal|Bronze}} instead of the old {{MedalBronze}}, {{Medal|Sport}} instead of {{MedalSport}}, etc.
This should help us reduce the number of templates from over 40 to just two eventually: Template:Medal and Template:MedalTableTop. I think Template:MedalBottom should be redirected to Template:End (a standard and shorter named template which serves the same purpose). SFB 16:22, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
We're still getting examples of the medal template being used, without the subject's name, in new articles, - for example Miranda Leek. When are we going to resolve the issues, discussed above? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:43, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Could someone please add an align
parameter to this template? So that one could align the medalbox to the left, too. --

Please can the third line of the code be changed to:
{{#ifeq:{{{name|}}}|no||<caption class="{{{titleclass|}}}" style="{{{titlestyle|}}}">{{{name|{{#Invoke:String|replace|{{PAGENAME}}| (athlete)|}}}}}</caption>}}
As trialled in Template:MedalTableTop/sandbox, this fix will remove the page title's "(athlete)" disambiguator from the medal box if present. SFB 15:04, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
{{#ifeq:{{{name|}}}|no||<caption class="{{{titleclass|}}}" style="{{{titlestyle|}}}">{{{name|{{Title without disambig|{{PAGENAME}}}}}}}</caption>}}

User:Rauzaruku recently went on to implement a new order within the medal template box, without previously looking for consensus for change. Therefore, I'm now starting this discussion on his behalf.
As far as I remember, the order in medal box has been (1) date/year (latest on top, earliest at the bottom), and (2) order of event as used by the IAAF. Which then looks like this:
Rauzaruku now suggests a new order (he might explain his reasons here, later), which orders by "importance of medal" (i.e. Gold highest, then Silver, etc.), and then by year (earliest on top, latest at the bottom). It would look like this:

I find his suggestion confusing, since medals won in the same year aren't aligned together. I prefer the old consensus. Any other opinions? -- bender235 ( talk) 00:43, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
I prefer to order first by color (gold first), then by year (earliest first), and then by event, in the way they are officially ordered (e.g., 100 m, 200 m, 400 m, ..., in track, and freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly, IM, relays in swimming). In my experience this is the order commonly used. Is there any official consensus on this by now, or should we obtain it? Gap9551 ( talk) 20:59, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

I have tested the addition of "sport" and "country_code" parameters in Template:MedalTableTop/sandbox. Please can Template:MedalTableTop be updated with the sandbox version? This will allow easier inclusion of the sport and country information. Most transclusions are for an athlete who has competed in one sport for one country, but we can still retain functionality for athletes who have competed for a multiple of countries/sports by use of the current {{Medal|Sport}} {{Medal|Country}} usages.

Why have the headers in medal templates shifted to the left? They used to be Centered. Was there any discussion of this before the change?-- MorrisIV ( talk) 22:32, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
As this template produces the same output as {{
Medal|Country}}
, I've converted it into a wrapper for the base template. This means that functionality and maintenance is now located in one place (
Template:Medal). I've checked it on a sample of "what links here" articles and haven't found any difference in output. Naturally, if I've broken anything, please feel free to revert me and I'll do my best to fix any problems that I've missed. --

Is there a way to make this template collapse? I'm thinking of Yulieski Gourriel in particular. It seems the template can collapse if it's part of the infobox, but {{ Infobox baseball biography}} doesn't incorporate these medal templates. – Muboshgu ( talk) 22:48, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
In recent edits on Justin Gatlin I noticed that someone added his disqualification from the 2016 Rio 4x100, but then another user removed it stating "Disqualification removed as he was never awarded the medal". Is there precedence for this, that it is typical to only list DQ if done later (such as the drug example given in the template documentation)? If this is indeed the consensus style position, it would perhaps be best to indicate this in the documentation to make it clear. Thanks, JeopardyTempest ( talk) 06:01, 23 August 2016 (UTC)

Please could the above get null edits? The templatedata I added hasn't started working yet. Many thanks, User:GKFX talk 23:27, 8 February 2018 (UTC).
I am seeing this more and more often. I go to pages with medal templates constantly, its kind of my territory. I keep seeing these blue boxes with a question mark inside instead. Other times its just blank. The templates even failed to resolve on this page. Templates are supposed to speed server performance. In this case, its not working.

These templates may have problems that make all three columns not in the same width, I've seen that on
this article. To fix the problem, I suggest adding table-layout:fixed;
property to them, which let browser automatically calculate the width of columns in average. --

In the {{
Documentation}}, please set the first unnamed parameter to Template:Medal templates documentation
(as in {{Documentation|Template:Medal templates documentation}}
). Doing so will set the documentation to the centralized page, rather than needing this to have a subpage to translcude the other page. Thanks.

Are the sports in this template supposed to be national team titles (like FIFA World Cup or Olympic) only? I don't see club titles (such as FIFA Club World Cup) mentioned in any wikipedia pages, from tennis players to football players. Is there an exception? Ctdbsclvn ( talk) 16:45, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
