New "Major Events" section under tenants edit

a new section where major events such as world cups, olympics ect can be listed? Creeperlover1000 (talk) 01:09, 23 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

That should be avoid! Events are not tenants, talk about miss information!! Govvy (talk) 21:58, 27 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Miss Information? Is that a Silicon Valley beauty contest?   But seriously, this is a good idea, as many major events are regularly held in certain venues, but wouldn't be classed as "tenants" per se. BilCat (talk) 08:23, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Then shouldn't that be a separate field and element altogether. If you goto Old Trafford, it is currently sitting in the Tenant field. Govvy (talk) 08:30, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
That's why the suggestion is to make it a separate section. Instead of a knee-jerk reaction maybe actually read the post? oknazevad (talk) 15:26, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

| image = {{#invoke:InfoboxImage [...] |upright={{{logo_upright|1}} [...] | header48 = [...] {{#invoke:Check for unknown parameters [...] | logo_size | logo_upright | main contractors

Add a parameter named logo_upright in the {{#invoke:InfoboxImage}} for the logo image. Per MOS:IMGSIZE, this would allow editors to resize the logo image in a way that respects readers' preferences for image thumbnail size. Accordingly, add logo_upright to the {{#invoke:Check for unknown parameters}} table at the bottom of the template to avoid an erroneous message in an edit preview. This change has been tested with the sandbox, and works functionally. — AFC Vixen 🦊 08:05, 19 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Tenant field again edit

Description on the main page should read, if the stadium owner and operator are same as the tenant, then the tenant field shouldn't be needed. It effectively an N/A argument. And should be thus. Still bizarre that people are using it incorrectly. Govvy (talk) 22:00, 27 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

And owner and operator field should be defined as stackable and not a single use field. You can have multiple owners, operators over time. Govvy (talk) 22:02, 27 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Not again. I thought we buried this argument years ago? BilCat (talk) 22:05, 27 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Morning BilCat All I am saying is the language could be improved Parameters (Explanation) cells on the table. Govvy (talk) 08:18, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
The tenant parameter is for the team itself, not the ownership. BilCat (talk) 08:29, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

The non-breaking space used in the "Record attendance" label restricts the width of the infobox's entire data column when the row is made active by a |record_attendance= input. This is especially detrimental in cases where the additional space taken up by this non-breaking label is sorely needed to better fit data in the infobox. No other label in this template with a similarly lengthy name has a non-breaking space, such as | label15 = Executive suites, | label37 = Construction cost, and | label43 = General contractor, so I'm confused as to why this specific label has one. Examples of how the data is presented with and without the non-breaking space in Record attendance's name are presented on the right. — AFC Vixen 🦊 13:27, 19 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
