New template (under construction)
editAthleteTimeline is used to summarise the seasons or major events of an athlete's or team's career or participation in a regular series of events, which are documented elsewhere on Wikipedia.
Usage
editThe template may be used by using the following basic format
{{User:Bamkin/AthleteTimeline
| sportSeries =
| debutYear =
| result1
| result2
| result3
...
| retired =
}}
Parameters

| athleteName | no | The name of the athlete as it should display in the template output
