Chairman

Hello - there's a number of individuals who are women and either describe themselves as chair or chairwoman. Clydebank F.C. might be a good example. Is there a constructive way of reflecting this in this template? Macarism (talk) 18:23, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Macarism: Yes, you can use the function chrtitle to change it from the default 'Chairman'. Cheers, Number 5 7 20:18, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request 22 October 2024

It is requested that an edit be made to the template-protected template at Template:Infobox football club.
(edit · history · last · links · sandbox · edit sandbox · sandbox history · sandbox last edit · sandbox diff · test cases · transclusion count · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, so that an editor unfamiliar with the subject matter could complete the requested edit immediately.

Edit requests to template-protected pages should only be used for edits that are either uncontroversial or supported by consensus. If the proposed edit might be controversial, discuss it on the protected page's talk page before using this template. Consider making changes first to the template's sandbox and test them thoroughly here before submitting an edit request. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request. When the request has been completed or denied, please add the |answered=yes parameter to deactivate the template.

The |2= parameter in {{URL}} is deprecated per its documentation. Removing this would consequently remove the generic "Official website" label, allowing readers to see and understand what the domain name of a club's website is, without forcing them to click through to it. — AFC Vixen 🦊 20:20, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Add a paragraph on the template of "Infobox football club"

Hi Wikipedia editors!

I want someone from you that reads my message, to add a template on the "Infobox football club" for "assistant_coach" in order for the Wikipedia editors that edit articles for sports clubs, in this case football clubs, to add information on a specific football club for "Assistant coach" of that team. I would be so happy if someone from you that reads this message and edits templates, will add this template: "assistant_coach" on the "Infobox football club".

Thanks SianWeng31 (talk) 07:38, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Assistant coaches are very rarely important or notable. Adding this parameter to the template would encourage people to add content where it isn't warranted. I oppose the addition of this parameter. – Pee Jay 13:59, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
