There is a discussion taking place at Template_talk:Ct#Requested_move_30_October_2023 to move the page to another name. Just wondering if anyone wants to voice their opinions. Paulpat99 (talk) 21:00, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note to all that Ct has been renamed to "Template:UCI team code" Turini2 (talk) 10:26, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Update: {{Ct}} is now a redirect to {{Contentious topics}}, please use {{UCI team code}} from hereon. All existing usage of {{Ct}} on mainspace were updated to {{UCI team code}} as well. – robertsky (talk) 07:03, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The WikiProject Cycling page Consensus decisions displays the following decision on cycling team nationalities:

• Trade cycling teams do not represent the country in which they are registered. As such, nationality should not be implied in tables through the use of flag templates (for example {{flagicon}}, {{flagathlete}} etc). (July 2009)

Considering a newer discussion on this talk page (September 2022) the above consensus is outdated. I suggest a change of rule:

• Trade cycling teams, like individual riders, have a country in which they are registered and which they might represent on championships. As such, a nationality may be shown in tables and infoboxes through the use of flag templates (for example {{flagicon}}). (September 2022)

I have nominated Walden–Wallkill Rail Trail for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets the featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" in regards to the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. Z1720 (talk) 01:09, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure if this has been previously discussed, but it strikes me that for consecutive wins in templates, e.g. Template:Milan–San_Remo_winners, it would be much better for several reasons (looks, sense, etc) to have these separated by a comma (Erik Zabel (2000, 2001)) than by an en-dash (Erik Zabel (2000–2001)) as at present. Anyone have any thoughts about this?. Ericoides (talk) 09:24, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I only partially agree - in the case where the number of consecutive wins is only 2. Otherwise, you will get a long list of individual years. Kiwipete (talk) 08:27, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
