Usage[edit]

This template is designed to collect information, which is used in several articles, in one location. The 2017 Major League Soccer season tables are shown on the overall season article, as well as the articles for each conference, if not other pages as well. This template should replace the need to update the same information on several articles.

In article[edit]

To add this table to an article, type {{2017 Major League Soccer Eastern Conference table}}.

Display options[edit]

Smaller table[edit]

If a smaller displayed table is desired, the parameter |only_pld_pts= can be defined in the template call to display only the position, team, games played, and points columns. This display may be desired if displaying both conference tables side-by-side. Valid values of |only_pld_pts= to display a truncated table are 1, yes, y, true, and t. For example:

What you type 
{{2017 Major League Soccer Eastern Conference table|only_pld_pts=true}}
What you see
Pos Team
 Pld Pts
1 Toronto FC 34 69
2 New York City FC 34 57
3 Chicago Fire 34 55
4 Atlanta United FC 34 55
5 Columbus Crew 34 54
6 New York Red Bulls 34 50
7 New England Revolution 34 45
8 Philadelphia Union 34 42
9 Montreal Impact 34 39
10 Orlando City SC 34 39
11 D.C. United 34 32

Display on team articles[edit]

Smaller sections of the table can be placed in team articles |showteam= and |show_limit= parameters. Use the abbreviation for the team that is used in the code, e.g. DCU for D.C. United, and the number of teams you wish to display – note that even numbers will be increased to an odd number to show symmetry in the table. For example:

What you type 
{{2017 Major League Soccer Eastern Conference table|showteam=DCU|show_limit=5}}
What you see
Pos Team
 Pld W L T GF GA GD Pts
7 New England Revolution 34 13 15 6 53 61 −8 45
8 Philadelphia Union 34 11 14 9 50 47 +3 42
9 Montreal Impact 34 11 17 6 52 58 −6 39
10 Orlando City SC 34 10 15 9 39 58 −19 39
