Changes

[edit]

Started public editable spreadsheet to track rating changes: http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AkxwCctKQpoFdEFTR1laQXRIb2lZTC10cktSb2V6MHc&hl=en&authkey=CKSCxpEO —Preceding unsigned comment added by Evan Roberts (talkcontribs) 13:10, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have done some updates for you from my spreadsheet. It includes all results up to this point including ongoing tournaments. Betelgeuse11 (talk) 08:36, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nice, I like the changes you made. Now the data is very clear, the live points 08/09 column solves the presentation problems I had. --Evan —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.18.146.22 (talk) 15:28, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've replaced the table code with a templated version. Basically you will have to just enter the tournament points and the totals will be automatically calculated, and then it can be sorted. It will take a bit more time to fill out than just hard-coding the table as we have been doing, but once it's fully entered and we move past the first cut-off it will save loads of time. All the data will already be there so we can just drop the points we don't need, and it will be quick to update. Betty Logan (talk) 02:28, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cutoff parameters

[edit]

The cutoff parameters enable the template to take only the points that will count at that cutoff point. For instance cutoff=1 will drop Shanghai, Northern Ireland and the Grand Prix from the 2008/09 points, and will only include 2010/11 points up to that cut off point. cutoff=4 will drop all the 2008/09 points and include all the 2010/11 points. The table charts provisional ranks, so after the calender passes the first cut off point, the cutoff parameter has to be incremented to cutoff=2 to update the table to the provisional rankings for the second cut off point, and the table will need to be re-ordered manually since the template cannot do this automatically. Once the second cutoff point is reached it's updated to "3" and so on. There are two cutoff parameters—one in the 2008/09 points and the other in the 2010/11 points, and both need to be updated so the correct points are included at each cutoff point. The key thing to remember is that the cutoff parameter is for the next cutoff point, not the last one.

The update schedule:

start: cutoff=1
After EPTC2: cutoff=2
After UK: cutoff=3
After Welsh Open: cutoff=4

Do NOT alter the cutoff parameter until all the points have been collated and ordered for the current cutoff. For example, after the UK, all the points need to be added and the ranking positions will need to be updated. That will give us the new ranking list at the second cutoff point. Once we have the new ranking list, the table can be updated to cutoff=3.

Player name "nowrap"

[edit]

Quite a few of the player names were split over two lines and was making the table look messy, so I've stopped them from wrapping in the player template. The consequence is that the table goes off the right hand side slightly but I think it looks better. If anyone disagrees or it breaks a guideline or something feel free to revert the change at Template:Snooker player points. Betty Logan (talk) 03:53, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
