Unnecessary template that clutters up external links section of articles, and doesn't seem to link correctly to their profile on that website. No reason why we'd need this on sailing articles, which have their World Sailing profiles with the non-cluttered template Template:World Sailing (either directly, or via Wikidata sports links) Joseph2302 (talk) 12:30, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: The function of this template is to show the Highest ranking in the worldwide Star Sailors League ranking list and the ranking per date of a specific sailor. In the World Sailing Template one can enter the WS identity number of a specific sailor. No ranking info! Therefor the SSL template gives additional information. You write that the template shows incorrect info. This is not true please check e.g. Bart Lambriex. The available links are to the Star Sailors League wikipage and to the SSL ranking website. Not to the exact page of the specific sailor. SSL ranking can be compared to the ATP Rankings. I agree that some improvements can be made to the template. Like less cluttering and maybe a direct link to the current SSL ranking database. The last mentioned improvement is however out of my programming skills league. But maybe someone can help out here.Dragon Genoa (talk) 12:46, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well the template didn't link to that profile anyway, so my point stands. And those profile have very little useful information (just the rank at this one tournament), which is way less useful than the World Sailing Profile (which lists most of their tournament performances). Joseph2302 (talk) 14:00, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is what I explained earlier. The link goes to the wikipage an the other to the SSL webside. Just like the World Sailing template does not link to the actual info of the sailor. Also it does NOT relate to just one tournement. The SSL ranking is a continuous ranking off ALL sailors Worldwide over ALL regattas.Dragon Genoa (talk) 14:14, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Clearly one issue is the way it looks. I think it needs to decide what it is. At the moment it's just as funny box hidden away in the "External links" section with an unnecessary icon and microscopically small text. Personally it looks to me as if its the sort of information that would normally go in the Infobox (although there could be a link too in the External links section). I'd have thought a few extra parameters in {{Infobox sailor}} would do the job. This whole Star Sailors League area is starting to look quite promotional and being in the infobox would perhaps be more suitable that an obtrusive box. Nigej (talk) 13:53, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't at all claim to be an expert. Depends to a certain extent what sort of system you're thinking of. Are you thinking of having a centralised database (or even extracting the data automatically) or whether you're happy editing all the articles individually each week. {{Infobox tennis biography}} shows how to go about the manual process (they have parameters highestsinglesranking and currentsinglesranking). I know Tennis are thinking about trying to automate this area, although I don't think they've made much progress, see WT:TENNIS#Rankings, which notes a system they use for Darts. See also {{Infobox snooker player/rankings}} for a relatively simple system, where a centralised system is used to store the current snooker rankings, using a cut-and-paste-and-a-bit-of-clever-editing approach. Nigej (talk) 14:36, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
To start with I would be happy to have just 4 "| SSL ranking date = ", "| SSL ranking role = ", "| SSL ranking = " and "SSL highest ranking = " parameters in Template:Infobox sailor. Then I can ask the guys from SSL to come up with an auto update mechanism.Dragon Genoa (talk) 15:04, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Or I can use the current Template:SSL as in coded User:Dragon Genoa/sandbox to make it a integrate it in Template:Infobox sailor. What do both of you think of this idea?Dragon Genoa (talk) 15:28, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Personally I'm still not keen. Text size is still too small for instance (small text is not allowed in infoboxes, MOS:SMALLFONT) Nigej (talk) 15:31, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Small text removed. How about now User:Dragon Genoa/sandbox?Dragon Genoa (talk) 16:00, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I also have an issue with this template. This is not an external link template as it claims to be, but a table with manual values and no references that is placed in various places - Peter Burling (sailor) inside an infobox; Anne-Marie Rindom at the navbox section. I'm leaning delete as I don't see how these issues can be solved with this template. Also, come on. A template created in 2022 without documentation? --Gonnym (talk) 11:44, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It does have an external liink to the ranking pages of SSL. Point taken on the documentation. I will add the documentation today.Dragon Genoa (talk) 09:31, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • weak keep, merging this with {{infobox sailor}} seems like a reasonable idea, but I am not sure if that is the best idea for a template that is only used about 30 times. For now, I have moved the uses to the infoboxes in the articles to make this a little less horrible. I have also created a sandbox version that includes the header and doesn't have the logo. I would suggest renaming this to something more verbose, like {{SSL rank}} or {{Star Sailors League rank}} or something to avoid confusion with SSL. Frietjes (talk) 21:41, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not used and contains mostly unrelated links to the subject of bones in Tetrapod animals. Mostly these are just articles about human bones. Few are related to Tetrapods only. If still a work in progress can be userfyed if requested. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:58, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article creator here—it's a work in progress that I haven't gotten around to working on recently. It's probably complete enough to add to articles as is.

WikiCleanerMan, I've added the navbox to several of the pages that should have it. Other than its lack of use, what exactly is your issue with it? The poor coverage of non-human osteology on Wikipedia is a separate issue from the quality of the navbox per se, and my hope is that the creation of this navbox will facilitate their improvement by making the pages easier to find. Ornithopsis (talk) 01:13, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Dropping in as another person relevant to the creation of this template. Agreed that the poor coverage of non-human osteology on Wikipedia is quite poor. This template is in no small part intended to help rectify that by collecting articles on each element of the tetrapod skeleton and allowing for easy navigation between them, and hopefully to aid in identifying osteology articles that need improvement. This has applications to comparative osteology in general. The fact that most articles in here are currently focused largely on humans is, presumably, an artefact of them being written by people with a background in human medicine; however, these articles can and should include information on the skeletal element's occurrence in other tetrapods. The alternative is to split each bone into human and nonhuman cases—something that is certainly far beyond the scope of what we feel comfortable proposing, and is not something I think is desirable. To address the point of "few are related to Tetrapods only", I can certainly see where you are coming from. It may be desirable to expand this template to include all vertebrate bones; the only reason Ornithopsis and I have not done so is out of fear of cluttering the template with a large number of elements found only in a few fish groups. I've certainly seen less complete navboxes being used in articles, and as a student of osteology I think this navbox would be very useful once implemented.

  • Delete a page that was created in the wrong namespace is not a reason for speedy deletion. The correct procedure for such cases is to move the page to the correct namespace, and then delete the redirect as a redirect left over from moving a page that was obviously created at the wrong title. This leaves no useful use case for this template, and instead an encouragement to delete things that shouldn't be deleted. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:19, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
