Template talk:CFB Yearly Record Start

Readability

I think that the readability of this template would be improved if the colors used to identify national and conference championships were more easily distinguishable. I have good vision and a high quality monitor, but when I have the brightness turned down to save battery life, I can barely tell the difference between the colors. --TruthfulCynic 16:48, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

I THINK STATE TITLE IN DARK RED SHOULD BE ADDED! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.98.39.40 (talk) 14:01, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

support for single year in conference

See 1905 in List of Colorado Buffaloes football seasons, where CU was an Ind for just the 1905 season. We write that as:

{{CFB Yearly Record Subhead
 | name      =Independent
 | conf      =no
 | startyear =1905
 | endyear   =1905
}}

which currently renders as "Independent (1905–1905)"

Could we update such that startyear and endyear being populated with the same value would render as:

"Independent (1905)"

There are similar non-Colorado examples, though the single year issue is uncommon. Understood of there is a presumption that "1905" CFB would be presumed as 1905~1906 and use startyear=1905 and endyear=1906, but that's not how I've seen the pages written.

Documentation says to use "single" as the end year and that absolutely does work as expected. So please consider this an enhancement request, rather than being broken. Lots of editors will make this type of edit without refering to the documentation. UW Dawgs (talk) 02:16, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

UW Dawgs, this works now. Frietjes (talk) 22:23, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Spacing

@Frietjes: I know you've made some tweaks to the code here of late. There's a minor spacing issue now in cases where all the footnotes/legend are hidden. Compare the height of the "Total" row at A. L. Swanson with Ron Roberts (American football). Can you look into this? Thanks, Jweiss11 (talk) 03:05, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

Jweiss11, should be fixed now. Frietjes (talk) 13:03, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

Looks good, thanks. Jweiss11 (talk) 14:00, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

"Extrafootnotes" field not displaying

Greetings and felicitations. I added an "extrafootnotes" field to the table in "Jake Crouthamel" in this edit, but it does display in Terry Donahue. What am I doing wrong? —DocWatson42 (talk) 03:35, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

@TheDJ, Frietjes, Koavf, and Primefac: Bumping (for Jim Cullivan). (I know that all of you haven't been here in years, but you were the most recent editors of this template.) —DocWatson42 (talk) 13:13, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

DocWatson42, that was a bug, if |bowls=no and |poll=no then it was suppressing the footer. I fixed it. no one noticed, likely because there were only 17 pages using |extrafootnotes=. Frietjes (talk) 15:02, 23 September 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. ^_^ —DocWatson42 (talk) 19:47, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
