Parameter notes

[edit source]
  • Use a bare file name or a normal MediaWiki file value for image; do not manually build an HTML image.
  • Provide meaningful alt text. The caption should add context rather than repeat it.
  • firstlabel can replace “First played” with wording such as “First contested”.
  • type also accepts the alias category; region also accepts country/region.
  • Any non-empty obsolete value displays “Yes”; omit it when the sport is not obsolete.
