Style

[edit]

Hello. Thanks for the work on major awards. Just quickly, to keep it consistent with earlier seasons that already have their awards, can you style it as (for example) "Matt Rowell of Gold Coast" rather than "Gold Coast's Matt Rowell". That will also make some of the more awkward ones like "Sam Darcy of the Western Bulldogs" flow a bit more naturally. Aspirex (talk) 03:52, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Aspirex sure thing. Thanks for the advice! Joecompan (talk) 04:48, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Please disregard this advice; for one, "Gold Coast's Matt Rowell" (and even "the Western Bulldogs' Sam Darcy" and "the Brisbane Lions' Will Ashcroft") flows perfectly fine and is less awkward/overly formal than "Matt Rowell of Gold Coast", and this is something that will eventually be applied to all articles (has already been applied to roughly the first third of the season articles). Additionally, rather than using the full club names (or in your case, using the monikers for every club), please just use the Template:AFL shortcuts – {{AFL|___}} – as that's what they were created for. I've reformatted these sections accordingly, but thanks for adding them in the first place, and keep up the good work. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 17:31, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies for the wrong advice, I was unaware 4TheWynne (talk · contribs) was implementing a change from the previous style. Aspirex (talk) 21:32, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
