point mein the direction of somewhere it states we deviate from the standard setup and I will cease and desist, and gladly admit my fault.Londo06 14:12, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unlike you, I don't need an MoS to tell me that there was one, not two, Chris Andersons on the team. It's pretty simple stuff, I don't know why you can't grasp it.--Jeff79 (talk) 14:18, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I understand there is only the one Chris Anderson (rugby league) in question. My issue is with the formatting. In the alternative guise it does look pretty abysmal. I am open to suggestions, that would allow to move away from the standard formatting, whilst still looking professional, eg. (captain/coach) written out in full, or something like that. I will at this juncture hold fire and wait for a reply or counter-proposal.Londo06 14:30, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Usually when the whole words are written out in prose it's "captain-coach". I've already been through this and thought that "(Ca./Co.)" was less disruptive yet still quite clear. I think "(C/C)" or "(C-C)" isn't clear enough to those not into footy, so I added the 'a' and 'o'. So there are a number of options. If any of these are more agreeable to you than just "(Ca./Co.)", then I'll definitely accept that over having the same person listed twice (which is obviously unacceptable).--Jeff79 (talk) 15:30, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Captain/Coach is fine with me. The ca/co bit was unacceptable to me. We've come together to get an agreeable outcome. Sorry to be a little obtrusive. Silly, but we got there eventually.Londo06 16:19, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The problem with that is it might raise the question of whether all the "(c)"s in most navboxes should also be changed to "(Captain)". That's why I settled on "(Ca./Co.)".--Jeff79 (talk) 16:34, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
