Individual Awards into Tables[edit]

Now that we're done with the 6th season of the NWSL, should we consider converting the individual award lists into tables? That way they can be sorted and easily read. I don't mind taking care of that, I just wanted to ask for any thoughts on it in case anyone objected... Thanks! WoSoFan (talk) 18:53, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm thinking it'll look something like this...Any reasons not to go ahead and make the changes to all the awards?

Season	Player	Club	Ref
2013	Lauren Holiday	FC Kansas City	^[1]
2014	Kim Little	Seattle Reign FC	^[2]
2015	Crystal Dunn	Washington Spirit	^[3]
2016	Lynn Williams	Western New York Flash	^[4]
2017	Sam Kerr	Sky Blue FC	^[5]
2018	Lindsey Horan	Portland Thorns FC	^[6]

WoSoFan (talk) 23:31, 26 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No objection. I think tables are neater. But, why make it sortable? GrouchoPython (talk) 03:55, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No objection either. But if we do go ahead, then I would suggest making a separate column for the nationality. If flag icons and player names stay in the same column as right now, then the sortname function would come after flags. Mightytotems (talk) 14:59, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good call on the separate column for nationality. I think sortable is nice for the long term, you can sort by club and be able to easily see how many from each club have won. It might seem silly right now with only 6 rows, but as there are more it'll be more useful. WoSoFan (talk) 18:08, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Weight of voter categories[edit]

The intro lists three categories of voters, but that no longer seems to be accurate. Fans also participate in the voting for a few seasons now. Should we delete this sentence from the intro and find the specific breakdown and cite them accordingly in each year's sub-section? Mightytotems (talk) 19:09, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
