Template talk:CurrentHSQBRank

Templates are not the way to go here.

Do we really need a template? Templates like this are best used for things that remain constant across multiple articles, like the Intro to quizbowl template. Seeing that this template is currently being used for the "2013-14 HSQBRank" article, I assume that means there will also be a 2014-15 one and a 2015-16, and so on. We can't use this same template there, because then we'd be updating the 13-14 article with incorrect info. It's harder to edit, too. (I had to type in the template name in the search bar to get access to this.) I really think the table should just be moved to the main article, with this template page being deleted entirely. Alternatively, if we want to be ambitious here, we can go for an infobox template, kind of like what Wikipedia has going here, in which we can just fill out some details and let the template do the rest.
