{{help}} I created the template {{Netball team}} based on the template {{Rugby Team}}, but I must have screwed something up along the way, as all text after the info box loses the space after each hyperlink and new paragraphs (to demonstrate, move my box to the start of the article), also, I thought info boxes automatically place themselves in the top right of an article. Thank you magical helper.--Matt 18:22, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

edit- That's really quite odd. I'm not "magical" by any means, but I'll take a look at it. Hersfold (t/a/c) 18:50, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Got it fixed. The problem was apparently caused because you didn't include |} to close off the infobox. A table has to be enclosed with {| and |} to work properly. I'm not quite sure why it reacted the way it did with the links and all (I'd have expected any text after the infobox to have been included as a new row, but apparently not), but suffice it to say, it's fixed. If it doesn't look fixed, try clearing your cache.
- In answer to your earlier question, infoboxes do place themselves on the right side of an article, but they don't float to the top. You have to manually place them at the top of the article. If you need more help, leave me a note on my talk page or add {{helpme}} to your user talk page. It's not intended to be used for article talk pages. Happy editing.

Silver Ferns → New Zealand national netball team — The convention regarding articles about national sports teams is to title them "<country> national <sport> team". I don't see sufficient reason why these teams (including the ones listed below) should be an exception. The conventional titles would be more intuitive, since the nicknames of these teams are largely unknown outside of their respective countries. At test level the teams are just as likely to be referred to as "New Zealand" or "Jamaica", as they would "Silver Ferns" or "Sunshine Girls". There may be a somewhat more difficult case with "Silver Ferns" given the team's profile in New Zealand: see Talk:New Zealand national rugby union team/Archive 4#Requested move for a similar discussion. – Liveste (talk • edits) 03:24, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
- The Sunshine Girls (team) → Jamaica national netball team
- Australian Netball Diamonds → Australia national netball team
- Support The All Blacks are at New Zealand national rugby union team, and they are known as the All Blacks just as much as the netball team is known as the Silver Ferns. 84.92.117.93 (talk) 18:25, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
- Support. Makes sense. Rebecca (talk) 00:14, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
- Support. To many people Silver Ferns are primarily specimens of the plant Cyathea dealbata. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:40, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
