Broken link to Hall of Famers
editI notice that this template will not work with Hall of Famers on the legendsofhockey.net website, due to the different URL syntax. For example http://www.legendsofhockey.net:8080/LegendsOfHockey/jsp/LegendsMember.jsp?mem=P197802#photo will lead to Jacques Plante, which is a much different format than http://www.legendsofhockey.net:8080/LegendsOfHockey/jsp/SearchPlayer.jsp?player=11269 which leads to Scott Pearson. Should we create a separate template for Hall of Famers, or amend this one? Flibirigit (talk) 01:27, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- I would use a seperate template, however I am not sure it would be possible to alter this one. But I don't know how to code these things very well, it might be possible to put in a switch that says to use the other url type if they are a hall of famer. -Djsasso (talk) 17:29, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- I've looked at the code, it would just be way too complicated to work both URL variants into one template. I'm suggesting {{Legendsmember}} be created instead. Flibirigit (talk) 18:37, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
- A separate template makes sense, I agree. And it should be relatively straight-forward to copy from one to the other? Alaney2k (talk) 19:37, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Template {{Legendsmember}} has been created. Flibirigit (talk) 18:10, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
Edit request to protected template
edit{{editprotected}}
I would also like to add a "See also" to this template, similary to {{Legendsmember}}:
==See also== {{Legendsmember}} for NHL players inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame
Thanks. Flibirigit (talk) 18:15, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
- I should haven't mentioned that the "See also" needs to go inside the noinclude tags, or else it shows up on players pages. That needs fixed. Flibirigit (talk) 21:39, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- I've moved the usage notes to Template:Legendsofhockey/doc using the usual documentation system, so you can add whatever notes you want yourself. Happy‑melon 22:06, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

- Thanks. I wasn't aware that was possible. I don't think anymore changes need to be made though. Flibirigit (talk) 22:14, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
