Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This subtemplate of {{Infobox basketball biography}} is used to generate the colored headers corresponding to the team colors for the individual's current professional team.

Usage

{{Infobox basketball biography/style|team}}

or

{{Infobox basketball biography/style|team|team_link}}

How it works

The template checks to see if the team is known by checking the return code from the 'check' function in Module:Sports color. If the team is known by the module, then it will return known, and the template uses coloring specified by the 'colorcell' function in Module:Sports color. If the team is not known by the module, then it will return nothing, and the template uses the coloring specified by the 'header' function in Module:College color.

If a second team_link parameter is passed, this style statement is used to generate a colored link, otherwise the template simply returns the style statement.

Tests

The following are tests to make sure the template has not been broken. The tests check the last team in a few sections of the module, and in the NCAA color template.

Test	League	Result
Blank	N/A	background-color: #DCDCDC; color: #000000;
Retired	N/A	background-color: #DCDCDC; color: #000000;
Free Agent	N/A	background-color: #DCDCDC; color: #000000;
Washington Wizards	NBA	background-color: #002B5C; color: #FFFFFF;
Žalgiris Kaunas	Euroleague	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;
Wollongong Hawks	NBL	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;
Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters	PBA	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;
Smart Gilas Pilipinas	PBA	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;
s.Oliver Baskets	European leagues	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;
Wonju Dongbu Promy	KBL	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;
South Korea national basketball team	KBL	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;
Youngstown State Penguins	NCAA	background-color:#C8102E;color:#FFFFFF;
Moncton Magic	Canada	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;
Raleigh Firebirds	The Basketball League	background-color:#DCDCDC;color:#000000;

The third column in the table above should not be blank for any of the queries. Only the first three should return DCDCDC/000000 (the default).

Complexity

In principle, more leagues could be added, but there is a risk that this would increase the module's complexity, and either (a) reduce rendering speed, or (b) trigger the dreaded script error.
