Template talk:Infobox Judo technique

Purpose
I created this prototype template because I feel the grappling hold template used on most Judo techniques is inadequate. I used that as a jumping off point and modified it until I got this. It is concerned with topics specific to Judo, such as inclusion in Kodokan, use in olympics, use in competition, japanese / english / romaji translation / transliteration. All these are lacking in the generic grapplin hold infobox. Imput would be appreciated. — Jdcollins13 (talk) 20:42, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Judo technique infoboxes
Hi, I like what you're doing with these, it would be nice to have the techniques articles more standardised. I think, perhaps, it's over-complicating matters to include information on which competition rule-sets allow them in the infobox.  Catfish  Jim  and the soapdish  09:51, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks Jim, and thanks for the feedback, I'll look for a simpler way to get the info across, I did notice that listing olympic/comp is fairly redundant as I haven't come across any technique that is allowed in regular comp but not in the olympics.
 * PS: do you mind if I copy your comment to the talkpage of the Judo infobox? — Jdcollins13 (talk) 12:59, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Not at all  Catfish  Jim  and the soapdish  13:36, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
 * One concern is that some techniques are prohibited completely, whereas some are allowed under certain circumstances. Leg grabs, for example, are perfectly legal if you're being held in certain grips, or as a counter or as a combination... could get messy if that's forced into the infobox!

 * Very true, I didn't consider the fact of variability, I guess the best place for that info is the body. I'll remove it entirely. Thank you again. — Jdcollins13 (talk) 13:44, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
