Template talk:Infobox rugby league biography

"New" parameter

[edit]

Does anyone know what the purpose is/was of the below field? Does it actually do anything?

|new            = yes

I see it a lot in infoboxes on older articles in particular e.g. Sean O'Loughlin. I assume it's no longer used? J Mo 101 (talk) 23:17, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The short answer is it is a leftover parameter from when they created a new version of the infobox and needed to distinguish which pages were using which version. A longer discussion is at this archive page. It is definitely not needed any more, and I believe the only reason it is still listed in the unknown parameters check is that it would flood the category with thousands of pages were it to be removed, and it's so obscure that mass removal is somewhat unnecessary.

Please add a new segment in the RL Representative Coaches section after "CoachLossesK" for "CoachTeamL" through "CoachLossesL" as seen in my sandbox edits. The current number of sections is not enough to show all of Wayne Bennett's representative coaching roles. PhinsUp23 (talk) 07:56, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: Is this actually needed? I see no pages in Category:Rugby league infoboxes with too many parameters, which indicates M is not yet populated/needed. Primefac (talk) 10:03, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wayne Bennett is the culprit again. I was going to use it to split the World All Stars off from the NRL All Stars since they were technically two different teams but haven't made the edit yet since there's not enough options. PhinsUp23 (talk) 11:36, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough.  Done. Primefac (talk) 11:41, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relatives

[edit]

When was a section for relatives added, just seems like there was not a discussion here for the infobox.Fleets (talk) 08:58, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
