  • {{{1}}} - The name of the player - will be made a link to their page on the wiki. This is an anonymous parameter, so it will take the first unnamed parameter.
  • {{{2}}} - The year the player competed. In parentheses, the tournament (e.g. Teen, Teachers, College)
  • {{{3}}} - The number of wins in regular season play. If left empty, will default to 0.
  • winnings - Their total cash winnings. If a number of wins is entered, winnings will take not take default value, so it'll appear empty if nothing is entered. If a number of wins is not entered (i.e. 0 wins), it will default to 0.
  • loss - The money they earned for losing. Can be either 2,000 or 1,000 but defaults to 1,000. Note that this doesn't sort properly when the winnings are tied, but who cares.
  • jarchive - A link to the player's J! Archive page. The archive does not use player name as part of its URLs, so this has to be manually searched. If no link is provided, then it will be empty.
  • {{{4}}}/info - Additional information about the player. This is the 4th anonymous parameter, so will only work without a name if all previous parameters are provided (name, year, wins). If this is not the case, it can be manually specified using "info".

To view the column names for this table, see Template:Jeopardy! table start.
