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

The AchievementTable template is a simple way to start a table to list track and field or sport of athletics achievements on an athlete's article. For an in-use example, see James Kwalia.

Parameters

The template has four parameters, all of them optional.

{{AchievementTable|width=|nation=|Event=|Time=|Result=|NotesOff=}}

width This amends the overall width of the achievement table in percent of the page width. This defaults to 71, which is the optimal width for usage alongside the {{MedalTableTop}} series of templates
nation This allows for a caption showing the nation that the athlete represented at the competition. This should only be used when an athlete has represented multiple nations. Note that where different nations are represented as separate table with a new caption should be used as this helps accessibility for screen readers. This option defaults to no caption.
Event This adds an additional "Event" column before the final "Notes" column, which should be used to denote the athletic discipline that the result relates to (e.g. 100 metres). The default is that this column is not shown.
Time/Result This adds an additional column to record the time or result that the athlete achieved in the given event
NotesOff This removes the final notes column from the table – useful when no notes are available or required. The default is that the Notes column is shown.

Usage

In order to use the template, simply open a table and add the template as follows:

{| {{AchievementTable}}

Using this template can help you write tables like the one below

Year	Competition	Venue	Position	Event
2001	World Youth Championships	Debrecen, Hungary	3rd	3000 m
2003	World Athletics Final	Monte Carlo, Monaco	5th	3000 m
2004	World Athletics Final	Monte Carlo, Monaco	2nd	3000 m
2005	World Cross Country Championships	St Etienne, France	15th	Short race
	World Championships	Helsinki, Finland	13th	5000 m
	World Athletics Final	Monte Carlo, Monaco	6th	5000 m
	Asian Athletics Championships	Incheon, South Korea	1st	5000 m

Basic examples

You can start to add the details immediately after using the AchievementTable template. For example, the following code:

{| {{AchievementTable|nation=JAM}}
|-
| 2004
| 2004 Summer Olympics
| Athens, Greece
| 4th
| 10.04 seconds
|-
| 2008
| 2008 Summer Olympics
| Beijing, China
| 5th
| 10.08 seconds
|}

Would give you the following table:

Representing Jamaica
Year	Competition	Venue	Position	Notes
2004	2004 Summer Olympics	Athens, Greece	4th	10.04 seconds
2008	2008 Summer Olympics	Beijing, China	5th	10.08 seconds

Event feature

Many athletes compete in more than one event, sometimes within the same competition – Usain Bolt in the 100 and 200 metres at the 2008 Olympics for instance. If you need to note the specific event which the athlete was competing in, then you can activate the "Event" column.

{| {{AchievementTable|Event=yes|Result=yes|nation=JAM}}
|-
| 2004
| 2004 Summer Olympics
| Athens, Greece
| 4th
| 100 metres
| 10.04 seconds
| {{AthAbbr|PB}}
|-
| 2004
| 2004 Summer Olympics

| 2008 Summer Olympics

Would give you the following table:

2004	2004 Summer Olympics	Athens, Greece	4th	100 metres	10.04 seconds	PB
2004	2004 Summer Olympics	Athens, Greece	8th	200 metres	20.45 seconds

| Athens, Greece
| 4th
