Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template uses Lua:

Module:Flag (sandbox)

Usage

This template is used to display a football (soccer) player squad in a standard format. It is derived from

WP:ACCESS

with that template.

Syntax

{{Football squad start2}}
{{Football squad player2|no=#SHIRT_NUMBER|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE|name=#PLAYER_NAME}}
{{Football squad player2|no=#SHIRT_NUMBER|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE|name=#PLAYER_NAME|other=#OTHER_RELATED_INFO}}
...
{{Football squad player2|no=#SHIRT_NUMBER|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE|name=#PLAYER_NAME}}
{{Football squad end2}}

Alternative template names

In order to make easier the work of writing new squads, some alternative, shorter, names has been designed. So, you may now use {{

Fs end2

}} as alternative templates, using the same equivalent syntax of the other ones.

Parameters

In {{Football squad start2}}:

hidenote: By default, the note at the top of the template will always display. It can be disabled with |hidenote=yes.
date: Optional parameter; will display the date as typed.
ref: Optional parameter; will add a reference to the end of the header.
bg: Use this param to specify a custom background color for the table header. Use RRGGBB values without the # sign. Example: |bg=5d9731
color: Use this param to specify a custom text color for the table header. Use RRGGBB values without the # sign. Example: |color=ffffff

In both {{Football squad start2}} and {{football squad player2}}:

nonumber: Many clubs use squad numbers, but others do not. Adding |nonumber=yes to {{football squad start2}} will disable the number column entirely. If used, this parameter should also be added to every player's entry, as otherwise a dash will be shown.
nonat: Adding |nonat=yes to {{football squad start2}} will disable the nation column entirely. If used, nat should be omitted from every player's entry.

In {{Football squad player2}}:

no: The shirt number for the player, if they have one. If the player's number is not known, or unassigned, then you can use the – character instead.
nat: The player's nationality. Use the name of the country, or its 3-letter IOC country code, rather than an adjective (e.g. "Spain" instead of "Spanish"). This is for the country that the player represents in international football (regardless of nationality of birth or citizenship, or non-FIFA sporting nationalities the player may use in other contexts). If this template is used in a non-FIFA context, then some other nationality might apply; however, this parameter is never for indication of birthplace as such, which has nothing to do with football.
natvar: If the relevant flag of the country is other that its current one, e.g. |natvar=1931.
pos: The position in which the player plays. You can use any of the four options below:
1. GK for Goalkeeper;
2. DF for Defender;
3. MF for Midfielder;
4. FW for Striker or Forward;
name: The player's name.
other: This is an optional parameter. You can add any related info to this parameter, like specifying captain, vice-captain, whether the player is on loan, etc. It will show additional info in the brackets after the player name. You do not have to specify it if neither applies.

Example

For example, the following code:

{{Football squad start2}}
{{Football squad player2|no=1|nat=Germany|pos=GK|name=[[Jens Lehmann]]}}
{{Football squad player2|no=3|nat=England|pos=DF|name=[[Ashley Cole]]}}
{{Football squad player2|no=14|nat=France|pos=FW|name=[[Thierry Henry]]|other=captain }}
{{Football squad player2|no=23|nat=England|pos=DF|name=[[Sol Campbell]]}}
{{Football squad player2|no=24|nat=Spain|pos=GK|name=[[Manuel Almunia]]}}
{{Football squad player2|no=26|nat=Ghana|pos=FW|name=[[Quincy Owusu-Abeyie]]|other=on loan}}
{{Football squad end2}}

Produces this table:
