Template help
Can you format this template such that:
{{CGR}}
or {{CGR|usage=nom}}
or {{CGR|usage=nomination}}
produces with the following parameters:
|name=xxx|format=test
or|xxx|format=test
or|xxx|test
produces:
- or optional parameter in place of 'name':
|sortname=Cbb Abb|format=Test
or|sortname=Cbb Abb|Test
produces:
- or optional parameter in place of 'name':
- or
|format=odi
or|format=ODI
produces:
- or
- or
|format=t20i
or|format=T20I
produces:
- or
- or
|format=all
produces:
- or
- or
|format=Test,T20I
produces:
- or
- and so on...
- or optional parameter:
|format=Test|cricinfoid=48114
or|Test|48114
produces:
- xxx (Test) (Cricinfo Profile) by ~~~ at ~~~~~
- or optional parameter:
|name=xxx|format=Test|note=example note
or|Test|48114
produces:
- or optional parameter:
For example:
{{CGR|sortname=Ross Taylor|Test,ODI|38699|Note for Taylor}}
or {{CGR|sortname=Ross Taylor|format=Test,ODI|cricinfoid=38699|note=Note for Taylor}}
should produce:
- Taylor, Ross (Test · ODI) (Cricinfo Profile)
Note:Note for Taylor by ~~~ at ~~~~~
{{CGR|usage=suspend}}
produces with the following parameters:
|usage=suspend|reason=Example reason
produces:
- Suspended: Example reason ~~~~
- If no parameters are specified then display an error message: 'no parameters specified'.
Please help, extra999 (talk) 07:20, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
- And there's some problem in the heading, please fix it. Note that I don't want it for suspension. extra999 (talk) 02:58, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- Fixed
|format_2=
and |note=
. I don't know much about cricket, except from H2G2. I've temporarily removed the heading which was unproperly formatted so if you could explain further about it i can put it back but right now i couldn't see what you were getting at. Cheers, benzband (talk) 15:26, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
- I want the section heading with the |name=xxx parameter showing up as ===xxx=== but not for suspension. extra999 (talk) 01:32, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
- And |format=test |format_2=odi produces (Test)(ODI), is it possible to change it (Test · ODI) ? extra999 (talk) 01:42, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
Possible to {{CGR|usage=suspend|reason=xxx}} and {{CGR|usage=suspend|xxx}} be made the same thing. And {{CGR|usage=suspend|fixture=Indian cricket team in Australia in 2011–12}} produces equivalent to {{CGR|usage=suspend|reason=Due to the ongoing matches on the tour of the [[Indian cricket team in Australia in 2011–12]]}}. After edits by Jfd34, the |cricinfoid=xxx was not in the <nowiki><span class="plainlinks"> code and the error message is distorted. extra999 (talk) 18:53, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
extra999 (talk) 09:26, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
no parameters specified
Please make |format 2= , |format_2= , |format2= producing the same thing. extra999 (talk) 17:32, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
Can you see what's the problem at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Cricket/Graphs/Requests#Suspended? extra999 (talk) 17:31, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
- Done the
format 2
/_2
/2
, but the latter problem isn't quite solved. benzband (talk) 18:02, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
Can you make a doc for this template. extra999 (talk) 07:33, 7 June 2012 (UTC)
Please make |4= equivalent to |cricinfoid= extra999 (talk) 19:07, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Re: Inter[national]view and lists
No Ben, I don't wanna participate in any interview (not at the moment). I'm really busy... but thank you so very much.
About "da list", I've sent countless messages in the past, and I've used: User:Pjoef/Sandbox/WPs#List_of_wikipedians_to_be_invited and User:Pjoef/Sandbox/WPs#Help_Request (see: [1] for the code). "Da list", which merges all the participants to MOTD with all the users who are displaying one (or more) MOTD's templates on their userpages, is not updated on a regular basis, just when time permits and now is not the time for me to update it :).

Host feedback needed at the Teahouse!
Hi! We're seeking your feedback as a current or formal host at the Teahouse about the project. Please stop by and lend your voice at your convenience, here. Thanks :) Sarah (talk) 19:54, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
A cup of coffee for you!
Thanks for your work on {{CGR}}, it is greatly appreciated. extra999 (talk) 04:52, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
- Ah, drink some. (digital drinking) extra999 (talk) 13:16, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
- Am currently practicing the Wikipedia drinking game (with coffee, though, so i won't be able to sleep for at least a week). benzband (talk) 13:49, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the barnstar
I'm currently making notes on a hoax article (which I spent many hours researching myself, but I guess this is about the 'Wikify' project hehe. I'm a bit of a stickler for things, but I always try to do the non-glorifying and desperately needed backlog work. Thanks for noticing though! ChrisGualtieri (talk) 16:54, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
- Basically, yes. Take a look at my post at the AFD. [2] Quite detailed? I don't make many pages, but I look into matters carefully when needed. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:31, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
- Actually... I'm trying to remove that hoax. The details it gives are wrong, the account is more then likely crafted fairly recently and it flies in the face of actual details about the battle and its flow. Namely that the actual and future-named Fort Walker was 3 miles to the south/south-west of the position and was not actually occupied that day by any forces. Though it did need some work either way... in case of undelete or whatever. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 18:26, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot’s recommendations. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information in the consent information sheet.
We have added information about the quality of the suggested articles using a Low/Medium/High scale which goes from Low to High .
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 04:43, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

The Tea Leaf - Issue Four
Hi! Welcome to the fourth issue of The Tea Leaf, the official newsletter for the Teahouse!
- Teahouse pilot wraps up after 13 weeks After being piloted on English Wikipedia starting in February, the Teahouse wrapped up its pilot period on May 27, 2012. We expect this is just the beginning for the Teahouse and hope the project will continue to grow in the months to come!
Thank you and congratulations to all of the community members who participated - and continue to participate!
- What you've all been waiting for: Teahouse Pilot Report is released! We look forward to your feedback on the methodology and outcomes of this pilot project.
- ....and if a pilot report wasn't enough, the Teahouse Pilot Metrics Report is out too! Dive into the numbers and survey results to learn about the impact the Teahouse has made on English Wikipedia.
- Teahouse shows positive impact on new editor retention and engagement
- 409 new editors participated during the entire pilot period, with about 40 new editors participating in the Teahouse per week.
- Two weeks after participating, 33% of Teahouse guests are still active on Wikipedia, as opposed to 11% of a similar control group.
- New editors who participated in the Teahouse edit 10x the number of articles, make 7x more global edits, and 2x as much of their content survives on Wikipedia compared to the control group.
- Women participate in the Teahouse 28% of Teahouse participants were women, up from 9% of editors on Wikipedia in general, good news for this project which aimed to have impact on the gender gap too - but still lots to be done here!
- New opportunities await for the Teahouse in phase two as the Teahouse team and Wikipedia community examine ways to improve, scale, and sustain the project. Opportunities for future work include:
- Automating or semi-automating systems such as invites, metrics and archiving
- Experimenting with more ways for new editors to discover the Teahouse
- Building out the social and peer-to-peer aspects further, including exploring ways to make answering questions easier, creating more ways for new editors to help each other and for all participants to acknowledge each other's efforts
- Growing volunteer capacity, continuing to transfer Teahouse administration tasks to volunteers whenever possible, and looking for new ways to make maintenance and participation easier for everyone.
- Want to know how you can lend a hand at the Teahouse? Become a host! Learn more about what makes the Teahouse different than other help spaces on Wikipedia and see how you can help new editors by visiting here.
- Say hello to the new guests at the Teahouse. Take the time to welcome and get to know the latest guests at the Teahouse. Drop off some wikilove to these editors today, as being welcomed by experienced editors is really encouraging to new Wikipedians.
