Template talk:Infobox ice hockey team season

When the league name is not the same as the article on the league
The Swedish Elitserien has changed names to Swedish Hockey League. How do one make a link like that in this template, I mean like Elitserien ? At present, the link goes to the wrong page when it just points to Elitserien, as can be seen e.g. in 2006–07 Frölunda HC season. Bandy boy (talk) 10:45, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

New infobox appearance
Can you explain what was messed up? It all looks fine to me. Alakzi (talk) 23:34, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I think if both of the prev_season and next_season fields were filled in the template wouldn't close and the rest of the article's content would be merged into it, if that makes sense. If you revert the edit check any of the pages in Category:2013–14 AHL season by team - I first noticed it here - and you'll see what I mean. It might take a few minutes to change back since there was a delay after I reverted User:Frietjes's edit. --Parkfly20 (talk) 23:46, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Good catch - I've fixed it now. Alakzi (talk) 23:52, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

What was wrong?
can you point me towards a page that was broken by the upmerge? I made A LOT of changes and tested the hell out of it. I don't doubt that something was broken. It is 100% possible, if not probable. I merged 3 templates after all. But can you point me towards a page that was actually broken so I can troubleshoot the issue? -- Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 18:50, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Sorry edit summary isn't the best for detail. it wasn't the changes to this one I was referring to. You changed another hockey one a short time ago that someone else reverted. I have no problem in theory with the upmerge. It just affects hundreds of pages so should always be talked about. I didnt necessarily mean a full tfd but just posting at the relevant wikiproject. -DJSasso (talk) 21:19, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure which other hockey one you are refering to... There was a template change that got reverted because of a double redirect issue. Once the double redirect was fixed the change was re-applied. This merge seems like a nobrainer to me. It doesn't affect the end user at all. The template functions exactly the same as before. It just means that now there is one template to maintain instead of 4. -- Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 21:14, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Sorry was on mobile so couldn't do links well. I believe it was the NHL Team template. I think it lost some english variant functionality if I remember the comment someone made. It was mentioned on the Wikiproject page. If all the functionality and looks is still the same then yeah its a no brainer. -DJSasso (talk) 21:21, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * HA!!! I found what you were talking about. Yes. I converted Template:Infobox NHL team from a hardcoded HTML table to use Template:Infobox as a base. In the process accidentally dropped a param that allowed for either "colors" or "colours" to be used. Because of that one little oversight, the entire change was reverted. There are no such issues with this template. -- Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 21:32, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

Copyedit request
Can someone please copyedit this template, so that "Winners", "Champions", and "Information" is lower-case where it's not first in an expression?

Thanks.

Edit request
The MinorLeague parameter was lost in the January merge of Template:NHL Team Season. Please re-add as it is used in many NHL season infoboxes. It used to have a line under Average Attendance for Affiliates. Thank you, Yosemiter (talk) 01:31, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I have added the proposed change to Template:Infobox ice hockey team season/sandbox. Yosemiter (talk) 19:17, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Done. -DJSasso (talk) 11:20, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

Add "MinorLeague" to the list of approved parameters just below the "includeonly" section. There are about 200 articles with that parameter in Category:Pages using infobox ice hockey team season with unknown parameters even though the parameter works correctly, an error is shown.

Parameters number 11 and 13 should be changed from "General Manager" and "Assistant Coach" to "General manager" and "Assistant coach" since that is unnecessary capitalization per MOS:CAPS. This is a known issue with ice hockey media as some websites tend to capitalize these words (including "Head Coach" instead of "head coach" and similar). Parameters number 23 and 24 should swap places ("Penalties in minutes" should be below "Plus/minus") as most websites list the +/- statistic first. – Sabbatino (talk) 08:53, 6 June 2018 (UTC)

Change "Penalties in minutes" to "Penalty minutes". I know the abbreviation is "PIM" but when written out in words, "penalty minutes" is almost always used. For example, the NHL's website shows Penalty Minutes as the tool tip when hovering over PIM on their statistics pages. BLAIXX 12:33, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Reasonable request, however, while I know that is definitely the case for North American articles/leagues. If people can show that it is not the case in other English hockey areas we may need to reconsider. -DJSasso (talk) 12:39, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Could you also change it from "Penalties" to "Penalty" (singular). Thanks, BLAIXX 12:46, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
 * That was just me being absent minded. Fixed now. -DJSasso (talk) 16:06, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

Change "| label11 = General Manager" to "| label11 = General manager".

Change "| label13 = Assistant Coach" to "| label13 = Assistant coach".

Per MOS:JOBTITLES. Also to keep consistent with Template:Infobox NBA season, Template:Infobox MLB yearly, and Template:Infobox NFL team season.  Bait30  Talk 2 me pls? 00:39, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

Games played minimums for Plus/minus and GAA
I think games played minimums for these two stats should be noted in the documentation. I’ve come across a few instances when a goalie who played part of a single game and didn’t allow any goals was listed as the GAA leader (example). For plus/minus, there are instances of non-playoff teams without a single regular skater being above Even and the listed leader being a player who only played a handful of games.

Also, I think “Minor league affiliate(s)” should be changed to “Farm teams”, matching the article section. --98.21.54.186 (talk) 03:43, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I agree that there should be a GP threshold for both. I think 10% (i.e. 9 games for an 82 game seasons) at a minimum although possibly even higher, especially for plus/minus. <b style="color: #329604">B</b><b style="color: #FD8F42">L</b><b style="color: #0096FF">A</b>IXX 22:27, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
