User:Montrealais/Canada House standings/row/doc

Usage
This template produces a row for use in the new User:Montrealais/Canada House standings format, with parameters allowing entries to be added easily whenever the composition of the Canadian House of Commons changes. This template is not intended to be used alone, but only in conjunction with User:Montrealais/Canada House standings.

The utility of this template is that within the house standings table, new entries can easily be added without having to disrupt existing ones. Formerly, each time you added a new event, you had to modify the  parameter for all parties not involved in the change, so that the blank space below their most recent standing count would continue. This template eliminates the need for this: when adding a new event, a border is added on the top edge of the cell containing the changed figure, automatically replicating the previous effect with far less confusion and possibility of error.
