Distinction between men's and women's events

[edit]

I came upon this page after looking at WSA season pages, and I was initially confused about how the 2014 WSA season page is coming to this one. But then saw there was a merger between the two organizations. Maybe that needs to be highlighted more, because an outsider wouldn't necessarily pick it up immediately. Also, could the list of tournaments visually distinguish between the men's and women's events? Perhaps with a colour as the events are distinguished for the level of prize money.

Lots of flag icons can cause technical problems

[edit]

@Raymond Cruise:: You may have noticed I globally replaced {{flagicon|country}} with its Lua-based equivalent, {{flagg|cxxlo|country}}.[1]

This was because the page exceeded the template post-expansion include size limit, which is a technical limit of the Wikimedia software. It is now well below the limit.

As you work on other articles that have a lot of flags, check the "parser profiling data" visible in the page's "html source" or at the bottom of your edit window. You are looking for the line that says Post-expand include size. If this number is anywhere near the limit of 2,097,152 bytes, consider doing what I did and replacing calls to {{flagicon}} with calls to {{flagg}} with the first parameter set to |1=cxxlo.

If the page uses {{flag}} or other related templates, there are usually equivalent calls to either {{flagg}} or Module:flagg. See the documentation for those pages and the documentation for the actual "flag" template currently being used for information on what the correct "flagg" parameter is.

By the way, there is no need to do this on every page with a lot of flags in it. I recommend only doing it if a page is getting pretty close to that 2,097,152 bytes limit, or if you will be making additions that might push it close to or over the limit. What is "close to the limit?" For "stable" pages that likely won't have a lot of new material added to them, you might not need to change them at all unless they are already over the limit and in the category Category:Pages where template include size is exceeded. For pages that are likely to be updated, use your judgement based on how much new material is likely to be added in the coming months or year or so. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 18:24, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
