Parameters

Parameter	Description
honorific_prefix	To appear on the line above the person's name
name	The short or common name of the subject. If this parameter is omitted, the name of the article is used.
honorific_suffix	To appear on the line below the person's name
image	An image of the person. Only the file name is required, such as example.jpg or sample.png. It is not necessary to use File: before the name or to wikilink the image. If no image is available, do not use an image placeholder.
image_size imagesize	A size in pixels to display the image, such as 200px (width), x300px (height), or 200x300px (max width and height). Use only when absolutely necessary. If empty or omitted, frameless is used to display the image at the default thumbnail size (normally 220px, but logged in users may change this at Preferences: Appearance).
image_upright	Scales the image thumbnail from its default size by the given factor. Values less than 1 scale the image down (0.9 = 90%) and values greater than 1 scale the image up (1.15 = 115%).
landscape	Set to "yes" when using wide, short images. The image height (rather than width) will be limited to 200 pixels.
alt	Alternative text for image, for visually impaired readers (see WP:ALT).
caption	A caption to be displayed below the image. Include date of photograph and photographer's name, if known.
headercolor	To change the default color of the background of headers, indicate a color name (e.g., lightblue or orange) or a hex triplet (e.g., #2468A0). To determine the hex triplet of a color, see List of colors; or go to List of colors#Colors by shade, click on the article associated with the desired color, and look up the hex triplet.
textcolor	To change the default color of the text of headers, indicate a color name (e.g., lightblue or orange) or a hex triplet (e.g., #2468A0). To determine the hex triplet of a color, see List of colors; or go to List of colors#Colors by shade, click on the article associated with the desired color, and look up the hex triplet.
Personal information
native_name	The person's name in their native language, if different than name.
native_name_lang	ISO 639-2 code, e.g., "fre" or "fra" for French. If more than one, use {{lang}} in |native_name= instead.
birth_name birthname	The birth name of the subject, if different than name.
full_name fullname	The full name of the subject, if different than name and birth_name.
nickname	The subject's common nickname(s). If there is more than one, list the names alphabetically and separate them with commas.
nationality	The subject's nationality. May be used instead of citizenship (below) or vice versa in cases where any confusion could result. Should only be used with citizenship when they somehow differ. Should only be used if nationality cannot be inferred from the birthplace. Do not use a flag template. This parameter is not displayed when the national_team parameter is defined.
national_team	The national team for which the subject competes in international events. This parameter is used for those who have represented their country as a member of a national team in international competition such as the Olympic Games, World Championships for the sport, Commonwealth Games, Pan American Games, etc.
citizenship	Country of legal citizenship, if different from nationality. Rarely needed. See usage notes for nationality above. Should only be used if citizenship cannot be inferred from the birthplace. Do not use a flag template.
birth_date	The subject's birth date. If the person is living, use {{Birth date and age}}, {{Birth-date and age}}, or {{Birth year and age}}. If deceased, use {{Birth date}} or {{Birth-date}}. Use plain text for partial dates. Example: {{Birth date and age|1950|8|26}} if born August 26, 1950 Example: {{Birth date and age|df=yes|1950|8|26}} to display birth date as 26 August 1950
birth_place	The subject's place of birth. Do not use a flag template.
death_date	The subject's death date, if applicable. If the date of birth is known, use {{Death date and age}}, {{Death-date and age}}, or {{Death year and age}}. Otherwise, use {{Death date}} or {{Death-date}}. Use plain text for partial dates. Example: {{Death date and age|1993|2|24|1950|8|26}} if died February 24, 1993 and born August 26, 1950 Example: {{Death date and age|df=yes|1993|2|24|1941|4|12}} to display death date as 24 February 1993
death_place	The subject's place of death, if applicable. Do not use a flag template.
resting_place	Place of burial, ash-scattering, etc. Do not use a flag template.
resting_place_coordinates	Use {{coord}}
monuments	Significant monuments erected, buildings named, etc., in honour of the subject. If many, link to an appropriate section of the article instead.
hometown	The subject's primary home town. Do not use a flag template.
education	Education, e.g., degree, institution and graduation year, if relevant. If very little information is available or relevant, the |alma_mater= parameter may be more appropriate.
alma_mater	The sportsperson's alma mater. This parameter is a more concise alternative to |education=, and will most often simply consist of the linked name of the last-attended higher education institution. It is usually not relevant to include either parameter for non-graduates, but article talk page consensus may conclude otherwise, as at Bill Gates.
occupation	Occupation as given in the article lead, including sport and non-sport professions, e.g., Professional [[football (soccer)|footballer]], [[coach]], [[sports journalist]] and [[venture capitalist]]. Try to avoid too much redundancy with the |sport= parameter.
years_active	Date range in years of the subject's activity in their principal occupation(s) and/or other activity for which they are notable. Use the format 1950–2000, or 1970–present if still active (note the use of an en dash, not hyphen). Do not link dates or years.
employer	The subject's employer(s). This is a good place for noting publications that the subject writes articles for, TV shows they commentate, sporting goods companies for whom they do endorsements, etc. Use {{ubl}} or {{plainlist}} to format multiple entries, and use common sense explanatory notes if needed, e.g., to distinguish between multiple sports or disciplines.
agent	The subject's agent (individual and/or agency).
height	The subject's height, if relevant, measured in centimetres (or metres) when using the metric system or in feet and inches when using the imperial system. Use XXX cm, X.XX m, or X ft Y in. The infobox will automatically display the appropriate conversion within parentheses. To satisfy international variations of English, if the subject is American or British (or primarily notable in English for playing on an American or British team, or for participating in American or British sports) enter the height in feet (ft) and inches (in), otherwise enter the height in centimetres (cm). | height = 6 ft 3 in → 6 ft 3 in (191 cm) | height = 191 cm → 191 cm (6 ft 3 in) The height parameter also accepts conversions done via the {{Convert}} template. | height = {{convert|6|ft|3|in|cm|abbr=on}} → 6 ft 3 in (191 cm) | height = {{convert|191|cm|ftin|abbr=on}} → 191 cm (6 ft 3 in) If the subject's height stated in a source is the converted measurement, ensure that this measurement is accurately stated. For example, if a source states 192 centimetres but the infobox should display feet and inches first: Incorrect usage, does not display (192 cm): | height = 6 ft 4 in → 6 ft 4 in (193 cm) Correct usage, displays (192 cm): | height = 6 ft 3.6 in → 6 ft 3.6 in (192 cm) | height = 6 ft 4 in (192 cm) → 6 ft 4 in (192 cm) | height = {{convert|192|cm|ftin|abbr=on|order=flip}} → 6 ft 4 in (192 cm) If the subject has not reached their adult height, add the year when the height was measured, in parentheses (round brackets) after the height. Provide a reference for the information after the year, in parentheses, indicating in the footnote both the source and the original units, like this: "[source of information] (original measurement in feet and inches)"; see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Unit conversions.
weight	The subject's weight, if relevant, measured in kilograms when using the metric system, in pounds when using the imperial system, or in stone and pounds in the United Kingdom. Use X kg, X lb, or X st Y lb. The infobox will automatically display the appropriate conversion within parentheses. If the subject is American (or primarily notable in English for playing for an American team, or for participating in U.S. sports), enter the weight in pounds (lb), otherwise enter the weight in kilograms (kg). | weight = 120 lb → 120 lb (54 kg) | weight = 60 kg → 60 kg (132 lb) The weight parameter also accepts conversions done via the {{Convert}} template. | weight = {{convert|120|lb|kg|abbr=on}} → 120 lb (54 kg) | weight = {{convert|60|kg|lb|0|abbr=on}} → 60 kg (132 lb) When using the convert template for kilogram-to-pound conversions, the zero (highlighted) is necessary for correct rounding. Otherwise, the example above would display as "60 kg (130 lb)". If the subject's weight stated in a source is the converted measurement, ensure that this measurement is accurately stated. For example, if a source states 125 pounds but the infobox should display kilograms first: Incorrect usage, does not display (125 lb): | weight = 57 kg → 57 kg (126 lb) Correct usage, displays (125 lb): | weight = 56.7 kg → 56.7 kg (125 lb) | weight = 57 kg (125 lb) → 57 kg (125 lb) | weight = {{convert|125|lb|kg|abbr=on|order=flip}} → 57 kg (125 lb) After the weight, add the year when the weight was measured, in parentheses. Please supply a reference in the same manner as for the subject's height.
spouse	Name of spouse(s), followed by years of marriage. Use the format Name (1950–present) for current spouse and Name (1970–1999) for former spouse(s); for convenience, consider using {{marriage}}. Separate entries using {{Plainlist}} or {{Unbulleted list}}. For deceased persons still married at time of death, close the date range with death year.
life_partner	For unmarried life partners (of any gender or sexual preference), not business partners. Use the format Name (1950–present) for current partner and Name (1970–1999) for former partner(s).
children	Typically the number of children (e.g., 3); only list names of independently notable or particularly relevant children. Names may be preceded by a number to show total children and avoid implying that named children are the only offspring. For multiple entries, separate entries using {{Plainlist}} or {{Unbulleted list}}. For privacy reasons, consider omitting the names of living children, unless notable.
parents	Names of parents; include only if they are independently notable or particularly relevant. For multiple entries, separate entries using {{Plainlist}} or {{Unbulleted list}}. If subject has only one notable mother and/or only one notable father, |mother= and |father= parameters may be used instead. These parameters may be used for biological, adoptive, foster, or step-parents.
mother	Name of mother; include only if subject has one mother who is independently notable or particularly relevant. Displays Parent(s) as label, and is overridden by the |parents= parameter.
father	Name of father; include only if subject has one father who is independently notable or particularly relevant. Displays Parent(s) as label, and is overridden by the |parents= parameter.
relatives	Names of siblings or other relatives; include only if independently notable and particularly relevant. Include the relationship in parentheses after the name (sister, uncle, etc.). For multiple entries, separate entries using {{Plainlist}} or {{Unbulleted list}}.
other_interests	Significant interests other than sports that the subject has. Please use this parameter sparingly.
website	Official website only. Unofficial websites should be placed under ==External links== in the body of the article. Use {{URL}} as in {{URL|examplesite.com|ExampleSite.com}}. Do not include the www. part unless the server is misconfigured and requires it. Use camel case capitalization to make multiword domain names easier to read.
Sport
country	The country or countries that the subject represents in sport, if any (not all sports involve national representation). Do not use a flag template. Wikilink the country name only if doing so would not be redundant with links already present in prior parameters. Use {{ubl}} or {{plainlist}} to format multiple entries, and use common sense explanatory notes if needed: {{ubl|United Kingdom (assoc. football, rugby league)|[[New Zealand]] (rugby union)}}.
sport	The sport(s) that the subject has notably participated in (basketballers dabbling in tournament poker or cricketers doing celebrity golf fundraisers do not count as notable participation in those sports). Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries; list the events chronologically, alphabetically or by depth of participation, as best suits the article; and give date ranges and other clarifications where appropriate. Link the name of the sport to a suitable Wikipedia article if one is available. Using the footballer example given under |occupation= above, the |sport= value might be {{ubl}}[[Rugby league]] (1991–1992)|[[Association football]] (1992–2001)|[[Rugby union]] (coach, 2001–present).
position	Primary position (e.g., goalkeeper, forward, quarterback, …)
shoots	Shooting position (e.g. in Floorball)
catches	Catching position (e.g. in Floorball)
disability	A disability that the subject has.
disability_class	The disability sport classification(s) that the subject competes under.
weight_class
weight_class_type	Change the "Weight class" heading to another word, to match the terminology used in the sport.
rank	The rank of the subject in their sport. Use {{color box}} to indicate belt colour for martial artists.
event	The event(s) or discipline(s) within the sport that the subject specializes in, wikilinked to suitable article(s). Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries, and list the events alphabetically, chronologically or by depth of participation, as best suits the article{{ubl|[[Breaststroke]]|[[Freestyle swimming|Freestyle]]}}. This parameter should be removed when not useful, as in the case of the footballer example given in |occupation= and |sport=, above.
event_type	Change the text of the "Event(s)" heading to match the sport's terminology.
universityteam collegeteam	The team (squad) that the subject plays or played on at their university or college in the US sense. Note: you cannot use both of these parameters at once. Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries, and use common sense explanatory notes if needed, e.g., to distinguish between multiple sports or disciplines.
league	The name of the sport league(s), federation(s) or other sanctioning system(s) under which the sportsperson plays/played. It is not necessary to add this parameter if the sport in question has only one such notable organization. For play under/membership in a regional (e.g., continental) federation, it may be useful to name that body and the parent organization, e.g., [[European Pocket Billiard Federation]] ([[World Pool-Billiard Association|WPA]]).
league_type	Change the text of the "League" heading to match the sport's terminology, such as "Federation", "Association", etc.
club team	The name of the sport club(s) or team(s) that the subject belongs/belonged to, if any, with the years in parentheses. Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries. Do not use both, unless the terms have distinct meanings in the sport in question (which is not the case with football (soccer) – "club", "team" and "squad" are synonymous (but this template does not support a |squad= parameter).
turnedpro	The date or year that the subject turned professional. Do not link dates or years.
turnedpro_type	Change the text of the "Turned pro" heading to match the sport's terminology.
partner	Other sportpeople with whom the subject regularly plays, or used to play, doubles matches.
former_partner
coach	The name of a notable person who is coaching or once coached the subject, and the years in parentheses after the name.
retired	The date or year (not wikilinked) that the subject retired from sports., if applicable. If the subject died before formal retirement, do not add the death date to this parameter, just remove it entirely. Do not link dates or years.
coaching	The names of notable other sportspeople that the subject is now coaching. Only add the names of persons who have Wikipedia articles about them (no red links). If there is more than one person, arrange the names alphabetically by last name and separate them with commas.
Achievements and titles
worlds	Significant titles the subject has earned at world or international, regional and national competitions, and at the Olympic or Paralympic Games, for example: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="width:500px;overflow:auto"> 2008 Summer Paralympics: 200&nbsp;m &ndash; Gold 2008 Summer Paralympics: 400&nbsp;m &ndash; Silver </syntaxhighlight> or: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="width:500px;overflow:auto"> 2008 Summer Paralympics: 200&nbsp;m &ndash; Gold 2008 Summer Paralympics: 400&nbsp;m &ndash; Silver </syntaxhighlight> The string &nbsp; creates a non-breaking space between the number and the unit (see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Non-breaking spaces). And &ndash; creates an en dash; alternatively, insert an en dash using the symbol table that appears below the edit window. {{Ubl}} ({{unbulleted list}}) and {{plainlist}} format lists with each item on its own line, with semantic and accessible HTML list mark-up, but no bullets. Regional means multi-national, not sub-national; sub-national competition is not notable enough for an infobox. If the sport is not Olympic, then remove the |olympics= parameter. If the subject does not have a disability, then remove the |paralympics= parameter.
regionals
nationals
olympics
paralympics
commonwealth
highestranking	The subject's highest world ranking (as a cardinal numeral) with the year(s) when this was achieved in parentheses, like this: 1st (2005). Add the discipline/event or other clarifiers if needed: 1st (freestyle, 2005), or use a longer prose description of the title [[2009 WPA Men's World Nine-ball Championship|WPA World Nine-ball Champion (Men's Div., 2009)]].
pb	If applicable, the personal best times the subject has achieved with the years when these were achieved in parentheses, using {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format list items: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="width:500px;overflow:auto"> 100&nbsp;m backstroke: 1:03.17 (2001, WR) 200&nbsp;m butterfly: 2:12.63 (2003) </syntaxhighlight> The following abbreviations may be used in parentheses after the year: CR – competition record, NR – national record, OR – Olympic record, PR – Paralympic record, WR – world record.
Medal record
medaltemplates	All templates from the medal record infobox except {{MedalTableTop}} and {{MedalBottom}}. Set out the medal templates in the order stated in the medal templates documentation, and arrange the competitions alphabetically by name. <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="width:500px;overflow:auto">
Men's swimming
Representing Sweden
FINA World Aquatics Championships
Silver medal – second place	2005 Montreal	200&nbsp;m breaststroke
Olympic Games
Gold medal – first place	2008 Beijing	100&nbsp;m freestyle
Pan Pacific Championships
Bronze medal – third place	2006 Victoria	100&nbsp;m butterfly </syntaxhighlight>
show-medals	If show-medals=no, the medal table is collapsed. By default, it is expanded and will only be collapsed if the "hide" link is clicked. The default should be left as is unless there are more than three medals.
medaltemplates-title	Change the text of the "Medal record" heading
Modules
module module2 module3	Used for embedding other infoboxes into this one. These parameters are not usually used directly in articles, and are mainly for creating other infoboxes based on this one with additional parameters. To see how these parameters are used, have a look at how {{Infobox swimmer}} is built. Note: module displays above the Sport heading, module2 displays above the Achievements and titles heading, and module3 displays below the medal templates and above the updated parameter.
Date updated
updated	Date the infobox information was updated. DMY: {{subst:Date}} or {{subst:CURRENTDAY}} {{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{subst:CURRENTYEAR}} MDY: {{subst:Date|2=mdy}} or {{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{subst:CURRENTDAY}}, {{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}

TemplateData documentation used by VisualEditor and other tools

See a monthly parameter usage report for Template:Infobox sportsperson in articles based on its TemplateData. TemplateData for Infobox sportsperson No description. Template parameters This template prefers block formatting of parameters. Parameter Description Type Status Honorific prefix honorific_prefix honorific prefix Honorific prefix for infobox title. Use of this parameter helps machine-readers distinguish the actual name. String optional Name name The short or common name of the subject. If this parameter is omitted, the name of the article is used String optional Honorific suffix honorific_suffix honorific suffix Honorific suffix for infobox title. Use of this parameter helps machine-readers distinguish the actual name. String optional Image image An image of the subject. Type the name of the image file without adding File: before it or wikilinking it. If no image is available yet, do not use an image placeholder File optional Image size image_size imagesize image size The image size. Use only when absolutely necessary. String optional Image upright image_upright Scales the image thumbnail from its default size by the given factor. Values less than 1 scale the image down (0.9 = 90%) and values greater than 1 scale the image up (1.15 = 115%). String optional Landscape landscape Set to 'yes' when using wide, short images. The image height (rather than width) will be limited to 200 pixels. Boolean optional Alternative text alt Alternative text for the image, used when the image cannot be load or by the screenreaders for visually disabled people. String optional Image caption caption image caption image_caption A caption for the image displayed. String optional Header color headercolor Changes the default color of headers. Accepts any valid CSS color name or color value (e.g., lightblue, orange, #2468A0). To determine the hex triplet of a color, see [[List of colors]] article or [[List of colors#Colors by shade]]. Alternatively your browser's developer tool (e.g. in Firefox 33 or IE 11) might help. String optional Native name native_name The person's name in their native language, if different than "name". String optional Language of the native name native_name_lang ISO 639-2 code, e.g., "fre" or "fra" for French. If more than one, use {{lang}} in |native_name= instead. String optional Birth name birth_name birthname The birth name of the subject, if different than "name". String optional Full name full_name fullname The full name of the subject, if different than "name" and "birth_name". String optional Nickname nickname The subject's common nickname(s). If there is more than one, list the names alphabetically and separate them with commas. String optional Nationality nationality The subject's nationality. May be used instead of citizenship (below) or vice versa in cases where any confusion could result. Should only be used with citizenship when they somehow differ. Should only be used if nationality cannot be inferred from the birthplace. Do not use a flag template. This parameter is not displayed when the national_team parameter is defined. String optional National team national_team The national team for which the subject competes in international events. This parameter is used for those who have represented their country as a member of a national team in international competition such as the Olympic Games, World Championships for the sport, Commonwealth Games, Pan American Games, etc. String optional Citizenship citizenship Country of legal citizenship, if different from nationality. Rarely needed. See usage notes for nationality above. Should only be used if citizenship cannot be inferred from the birthplace. Do not use a flag template. String optional Birth date birth_date The subject's birth date. Use {{birth date and age|year|month|day}} String optional Place of birth birth_place The subject's place of birth. Do not use a flag template. String optional Death date death_date The subject's death date, if applicable. Use {{death date and age|death year|death month|death day|birth year|birth month|birth day}}. String optional Place of death death_place The subject's place of death, if applicable. Do not use a flag template. String optional Resting place resting_place resting place restingplace Place of burial, ash-scattering, etc. Use name alone. Do not use a flag template. String optional Resting place coordinates resting_place_coordinates resting place coordinates restingplacecoordinates GPS coordinates for place of burial, ash-scattering, etc. String optional Monuments monuments Significant monuments erected, buildings named, etc., in honour of the subject. If many, link to an appropriate section of the article instead. String optional Education education Education, e.g., degree, institution and graduation year, if relevant. If very little information is available or relevant, the |alma_mater= parameter may be more appropriate. String optional Alma mater alma_mater alma mater The sportsperson's alma mater. This parameter is a more concise alternative to |education=, and will most often simply consist of the linked name of the last-attended higher education institution. It is usually not relevant to include either parameter for non-graduates, but article talk page consensus may conclude otherwise, as at Bill Gates. String optional Occupation occupation Occupation as given in the article lead, including sport and non-sport professions, e.g., Professional [[football (soccer)|footballer]], [[coach]], [[sports journalist]] and [[venture capitalist]]. Try to avoid too much redundancy with the |sport= parameter. String optional Years active years_active years active yearsactive Date range in years of the subject's activity in their principal occupation(s) and/or other activity for which they are notable. Use the format 1950–2000, or 1970–present if still active (note the use of an en dash, not hyphen). Do not link dates or years. String optional Employer employer The subject's employer(s). This is a good place for noting publications that the subject writes articles for, TV shows they are commentators, sporting goods companies for whom they do endorsements, etc. Use {{ubl}} or {{plain list}} to format multiple entries, and use common sense explanatory notes if needed, e.g., to distinguish between multiple sports or disciplines. String optional Agent agent The subject's agent (individual and/or agency). String optional Height height The subject's height, if relevant. Use "X cm", "X m", or "X ft Y in" (without quotation marks). The infobox will automatically display the appropriate conversion within parentheses. To satisfy international variations of English, if the subject is American or British (or primarily notable in English for playing on an American or British team, or for participating in American or British sports) enter the height in feet and inches. The infobox will add a conversion to centimeters: <code>|height= 6 ft 3 in</code> → "6 ft 3 in (191 cm)". Conversely, if they are not American or British, enter the height in centimetres. The infobox will add a conversion to feet and inches: <code>|height= 191 cm</code> → "191 cm (6 ft 3 in)". If the subject's height stated in a source is the converted measurement, ensure that this measurement is accurately stated. For example, if a source states that an American or British athlete is 192 cm tall, enter <code>|height= 6 ft 3.6 in</code> to get the result "6 ft 3.6 in (192 cm)". Some experimentation using the "Show preview" button may be required. Indicating <code>|height= 6 ft 4 in</code>, which would yield "6 ft 4 in (193 cm)", would be inaccurate. For sportspersons who have not reached their adult height, it is important to add the year when the height was measured, in parentheses (round brackets) after the height. Provide a reference for the information after the year, in parentheses, indicating in the footnote both the source and the original units, like this: "[<var>source of information</var>] (original measurement in feet and inches)"; see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Unit conversions. The height parameter also accepts conversions done via the Convert template: <code>|height= {{convert|6|ft|3|in|cm|abbr=on}}</code> → "6 ft 3 in (191 cm)" or <code>|height= {{convert|191|cm|ftin|abbr=on}}</code> → "191 cm (6 ft 3 in)". String optional Height in centimeters height_cm Height in centimeters. Number only, please. Causes "Height in feet" and "height in inches" parameters to be ignored. (Deliberate) Number optional Height in feet height_ft Feet component of height, when express in a "# ft # in" format. Use "Height in inches" parameter to add the inch component. Integer number only, please. Ignored if "height in centimeters" is indicated. Number optional Height in inches height_in Height in inches. If "Height in feet" is also added, this parameters is taken as the inch component of height, when express in a "# ft. # in." format. (Otherwise, it is construed as full height in inches.) Number only, please. Ignored if "height in centimeters" is indicated. Number optional Weight weight The subject's weight, if relevant. Use "X kg", "X lb" or "X st Y lb" (without quotation marks). The infobox will automatically display the appropriate conversion within parentheses. If they are American (or primarily notable in English for playing for an American team, of for participating in U.S. sports), enter the weight in pounds . The infobox will add a conversion to kilograms: <code>|weight= 120 lb</code> → "120 lb (54 kg)". If they are not American, enter the weight in kilograms. The infobox will add a conversion to pounds: <code>|weight= 60 kg</code> → "60 kg (132 lb)". After the weight, add the year when the weight was measured, in parentheses. Please supply a reference in the same manner as for the subject's height. The weight parameter also accepts conversions done via the Convert template: <code>|weight= {{convert|120|lb|kg|abbr=on}}</code> → "120 lb (54 kg)" or <code>|weight= {{convert|60|kg|lb|0|abbr=on}}</code> → "60 kg (132 lb)". When using the convert template for kilogram-to-pound conversions, the final zero is necessary for correct rounding. Otherwise, it would display as "60 kg (130 lb)". String optional Weight in kilograms weight_kg Weight in kilograms. Number only, please. If specified, "weight in stones" and "weight in pounds" parameters are ignored. Number optional Weight in stones weight_st Stones component of weight, to be expressed in "# st. # lb." format. Number only, please. Use "weight in pounds" parameter to specify the pounds component. Ignored if "weight in kilograms" is specified. Number optional Weight in pounds weight_lb Weight in pounds. If "weight in stones" is specified, this parameter is used as the pounds component of "# st. # lb." format. (Otherwise, it is taken as weight in full.) Number only, please. Ignored if weight in kilograms is already specified. Number optional Spouse(s) spouse Name of spouse(s), followed by years of marriage. Use the format Name (1950–present) for current spouse and Name (1970–1999) for former spouse(s); for convenience, consider using {{marriage}}. Separate entries using {{Plainlist}} or {{Unbulleted list}}. For deceased persons still married at time of death, close the date range with death year. String optional Life partner(s) life_partner For unmarried life partners (of any gender or sexual preference), not business partners. Use the format Name (1950–present) for current partner and Name (1970–1999) for former partner(s). String optional Other interests other_interests other-interests Significant interests other than sports that the subject has. Please use this parameter sparingly. String optional Website website Official website only. Unofficial websites should be placed under ==External links== in the body of the article. Use {{URL}} as in {{URL|examplesite.com|ExampleSite.com}}. Do not include the www. part unless the server is misconfigured and requires it. Use camel case capitalization to make multiword domain names easier to read. String optional Country country The country or countries that the subject represents in sport, if any (not all sports involve nationalistic representation). Do not use a flag template. Wikilink the country name only if doing so would not be redundant with links already present in prior parameters. Use {{ubl}} or {{plain list}} to format multiple entries, and use common sense explanatory notes if needed: {{ubl|United Kingdom (assoc. football, rugby league)|[[New Zealand]] (rugby union)}} String optional Sport sport The sport(s) that the subject has notably participated in (basketballers dabbling in tournament poker, or cricketers doing celebrity golf fundraisers does not count as notable participation in those sports). Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries; list the events chronologically, alphabetically or by depth of participation, as best suits the article; and give date ranges and other clarifications where appropriate. Link the name of the sport to a suitable Wikipedia article if one is available. Using the footballer example given under |occupation= above, the |sport= value might be {{ubl}}[[Rugby league]] (1991–1992)|[[Association football]] (1992–2001)|[[Rugby union]] (coach, 2001–present). String optional Position position Primary position (e.g., goalkeeper, forward, quarterback, ...) String optional Disability disability A disability that the subject has. String optional Disability class disability_class The disability sport classification(s) that the subject competes under. String optional Weight class weight_class The weight classification(s) that the subject competes under, if applicable in that sport String optional Weight class type weight_class_type If the sport in which this sportsperson competes has a technical name for "weight class", use this parameter to specify it, thus changing the "weight class" label to something else. String optional Rank rank The rank of the subject in their sport. Use {{color box}} to indicate belt colour for martial artists. String optional Event event The event(s) or discipline(s) within the sport that the subject specializes in, wikilinked to suitable article(s). Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries, and list the events alphabetically, chronologically or by depth of participation, as best suits the article{{ubl|[[Breaststroke]]|[[Freestyle swimming|Freestyle]]}}. This parameter should be removed when not useful, as in the case of the footballer example given in |occupation= and |sport=, above. String optional University team universityteam The team (squad) that the subject plays or played on at their university. If this parameter is set, "College team" parameter will not work. (Deliberate) Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries, and use common sense explanatory notes if needed, e.g., to distinguish between multiple sports or disciplines. String optional College team collegeteam The team (squad) that the subject plays or played on at their college. If "University team" parameter is set, this parameter will be ignored. (Deliberate) Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries, and use common sense explanatory notes if needed, e.g., to distinguish between multiple sports or disciplines. String optional League league The name of the sport league(s), federation(s) or other sanctioning system(s) under which the sportsperson plays/played. It is not necessary to add this parameter if the sport in question has only one such notable organization. For play under/membership in a regional (e.g., continental) federation, it may be useful to name that body and the parent organization, e.g., [[European Pocket Billiard Federation]] ([[World Pool-Billiard Association|WPA]]). String optional League type league_type Changes the “League” heading to another word, such as "Federation", "Association", etc., to match the terminology used in the sport. String optional Club club The name of the sport club(s) that the subject belongs/belonged to, if any, with the years in parentheses. Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries. Do not use both, unless the terms have distinct meanings in the sport in question (which is not the case with football (soccer) – "club", "team" and "squad" are synonymous (but this template does not support a |squad= parameter). String optional Team team The name of the sport team(s) that the subject belongs/belonged to, if any, with the years in parentheses. Use {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format multiple entries. Do not use both, unless the terms have distinct meanings in the sport in question (which is not the case with football (soccer) – "club", "team" and "squad" are synonymous (but this template does not support a |squad= parameter). String optional Turned pro in turnedpro The date or year that the subject turned professional. Do not link dates or years. String optional Partner partner Other sportpeople with whom the subject regularly plays doubles matches. String optional Former partner former_partner formerpartner Other sportpeople with whom the subject used to play doubles matches. String optional Coach coach The name of a notable person who is coaching or once coached the subject, and the years in parentheses after the name. String optional Retired retired The date or year that the subject retired from sports., if applicable. If the subject died before formal retirement, do not add the death date to this parameter, just remove it entirely. Do not link dates or years. String optional Now coaching coaching The names of notable other sportspeople that the subject is now coaching. Only add the names of persons who have Wikipedia articles about them (no red links). If there is more than one person, arrange the names alphabetically by last name and separate them with commas. String optional World finals worlds Significant titles the subject has earned at world or international, regional and national competitions, and at the Olympic or Paralympic Games String optional Regional finals regionals Regional means multi-national, not sub-national; sub-national competition is not notable enough for an infobox. String optional National finals nationals nationals competition String optional Olympic finals olympics no description String optional Paralympic finals paralympics If the sport is not Olympic, then remove the |olympics= parameter. String optional Commonwealth finals commonwealth If the subject does not have a disability, then remove the |paralympics= parameter. String optional Highest world ranking highestranking The subject's highest world ranking (as a cardinal numeral) with the year(s) when this was achieved in parentheses, like this: 1st (2005). Add the discipline/event or other clarifiers if needed: 1st (freestyle, 2005), or use a longer prose description of the title [[2009 WPA Men's World Nine-ball Championship|WPA World Nine-ball Champion (Men's Div., 2009)]]. String optional Personal best(s) pb If applicable, the personal best times the subject has achieved with the years when these were achieved in parentheses, using {{ubl}} or {{PL}} to format list items: {{ubl|'''100&nbsp;m backstroke''': 1:03.17 (2001, '''WR''') |'''200&nbsp;m butterfly''': 2:12.63 (2003) }} . The following abbreviations may be used in parentheses after the year: CR – competition record, NR – national record, OR – Olympic record, PR – Paralympic record, WR – world record. String optional Medal templates medaltemplates All templates from the medal record infobox except {{MedalTableTop}} and {{MedalBottom}}. Set out the medal templates in the order stated in the medal templates documentation, and arrange the competitions alphabetically by name. {{MedalSport|[[Swimming#competitive swimming|Men's swimming]]}} {{MedalCountry|{{SWE}}}} {{MedalCompetition|[[FINA World Aquatics Championships]]}} {{MedalSilver|[[2005 World Aquatics Championships|2005 Montreal]]|200&nbsp;m [[breaststroke]]}} {{MedalCompetition|[[Olympic Games]]}} {{MedalGold|[[2008 Summer Olympics|2008 Beijing]]|[[Swimming at the 2008 Summer Olympics|100&nbsp;m freestyle]]}} {{MedalCompetition|[[Pan Pacific Swimming Championships|Pan Pacific Championships]]}} {{MedalBronze|[[2006 Pan Pacific Swimming Championships|2006 Victoria]]|100&nbsp;m [[butterfly stroke|butterfly]]}} String optional Show medals? show-medals If set to "no", the medal table is collapsed. By default, it is expanded and will only be collapsed if the "hide" link is clicked. The default should be left as is unless there are more than three medals. String optional Module module misc Used for embedding other infoboxes into this one. Appears above the "Sports" section. This parameter is not usually used directly in articles, and are mainly for creating other infoboxes based on this one with additional parameters. To see how these parameters are used, have a look at how {{Infobox swimmer}} is built. String optional Module2 module2 misc2 Used for embedding other infoboxes into this one. Appears above the "Achievements" section. This parameter is not usually used directly in articles, and are mainly for creating other infoboxes based on this one with additional parameters. To see how these parameters are used, have a look at how {{Infobox swimmer}} is built. String optional Module3 module3 misc3 Used for embedding other infoboxes into this one. Appears below the medal templates and above the "updated" parameter. String optional Date updated updated Date the infobox information was updated. For day-month-year (DMY), use: <code>{{subst:Date}}</code> or <code>{{subst:CURRENTDAY}} {{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}</code>. For month-day-year (MDY), use: <code>{{subst:Date|2=mdy}}</code> or <code>{{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{subst:CURRENTDAY}}, {{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}</code>. String optional
