Medals information doesn't work
There's a problem with the template coding in both the Olympics Medals and World Championships Medals sections. For example, see the Alfred Rainer article as of 18 August 2008.
For Olympics Medals it shows:
0 (0 gold)
For World Championship Medals it shows:
( gold)
Bloated
This infobox is heavily bloated with unnecessary parameters that should be removed. For instance the "Skis/boots/bindings" and the "sponsor" parameters has nothing to do in the infobox.
The country parameter also be removed as it is unclear what it really means. Is it for birth country, where the person is a citizen, where he lives, or the country he competes for. Unambigious in many articles but in for instance Mateja Svet it is confusing.
Many of the parameters should not be mandatory. Not all alpine skiers have compeeted in the olympics and should have a section in the infobox about that. Rettetast (talk) 14:24, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
Medals
Would it be possible to add a "show-medals" parameter to this infobox like there is in Template:Infobox sportsperson? -- Whpq (talk) 18:46, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- The template has already got that. It's just that it wasn't in the docs. I've updated the docs to show the param. -- WOSlinker (talk) 20:30, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Oh. Thanks! I've also added it to the cut-and-paste template. -- Whpq (talk) 20:36, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
Image doesn't work as documented
The image parameter documentation specifies that it is the bare file name without the image or file prefix. However, I tried to use it that way at Thomas Sykora and found that it needs to be inserted as a wikilinked file with size specifications in order to appear. Is this a bug or should the documentation be updated? -- Whpq (talk) 16:37, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
- I fixed the documentation. Frietjes (talk) 17:02, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
- Ok. Thanks. -- Whpq (talk) 17:54, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
Alpine ski racer
the issue that articles for snowboarders, biathletes and other non-alpine skiers has the line "— Alpine ski racer —" in the infobox should be resolved (like Hannah Teter). --Edgars2007 (talk/contribs) 17:32, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
- @Edgars2007: use
