Wikipedia:WikiProject Cycling/Templates

This page is part of the WikiProject Cycling and is intended to be used as a guide on template standardization.

Navigational boxes (navboxes)

This is a system for allowing all navigational boxes (templates) related to cycling to be placed on any page without having to have them as separate boxes. Standard colours for header rows, standard listing methods and other standardizations have been introduced to make these boxes look good when combining several different pieces.

Information boxes (infoboxes)

Code	Where to use
{{Infobox cycling team}}	Articles about professional or otherwise notable teams
{{Infobox cycling team season}}	Articles about the season of a cycling team
{{Infobox cycling race}}	Main-page cycling race articles (not separate races)
{{Infobox cycling race report}}	Articles about specific cycling race events
{{Infobox cyclist}}	Biographies of cyclists and managerial staff, past and present
{{Infobox cycling championship}}	Articles about cycling championships
{{Infobox cycling season}}	Articles about the individual season of a season-long competition
{{Infobox hill climb}}	Articles about climbs used by cyclists or in cycle racing

The following templates are broader templates that have a use for articles within the scope of WikiProject Cycling:
