Module:Team appearances list is invoked by {{Team appearances list}} to display a horizontal list showing the years a specified team participated in a specified competition. Each year of attendance is wikilinked to a corresponding article, while years the team did not compete (absences) are shown as disabled.
The names of the competition and team must be specified. Optionally, information for a competition can be defined in Module:Team appearances list/data, and team information can be included:
begin_year– The first year to be shown.end_year– The last year to be shown.- Years the team did not attend the competition.
If begin_year or end_year are defined for a team, they set default values that can be overridden with parameters in the template.
If a team is defined for a particular competition, any absent years in the templace call are ignored (instead, the absences defined in the data module are used).
Module:Team appearances list/show is used for testing. It shows the results for all competition/team pairs defined in the data module. The results are displayed at Module talk:Team appearances list/show.
Changes should be performed in the sandbox modules, using the following for testing:
- {{Team appearances list/sandbox}} – Uses the sandbox main and data modules.
- Module talk:Team appearances list/show – Results for all competition/team pairs defined in the sandbox data module.
