Template:UCI team code/doc

Add links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In professional road cycling, the name of a team is usually the name of the sponsor, and it can change every year. This template is used to refer to a team and make sure that the name will change correctly.

If two sponsors are used in the team name, the sponsor names are separated by an en dash. The ct template tries to use that style, although not all the team templates may be updated yet.

Usage[edit]

Linked: {{UCI team code|name|year}}, where name is the (UCI)-code of the cycling team, and year (optional) is year.

Not linked: {{UCI team code|name|year|nolink=yes}}, where name is the (UCI)-code of the cycling team, and year (optional) is year.

Name[edit]

The following codes are included: (a complete list is found in Category:Cycling team data)

This corresponds to the following teams, alphabetically ordered by most recent team name:

Year[edit]

In cycling, team names change with sponsors, and so the same team can have a completely different name in different years. For this, the year can be specified. If no year is specified, the most recent teamname is used. If a team changes names half-way a year, the two names are distinguished by adding a letter. For example, the team currently known as Tinkoff:

Code Result Note
{{UCI team code|SAX}} Tinkoff no year specified
{{UCI team code|SAX|1998}} home–Jack & Jones the name the team had in the 1998 season.
{{UCI team code|SAX|1999}} home–Jack & Jones the name the team had in the 1999 season.
{{UCI team code|SAX|2000}} Memory Card–Jack & Jones
{{UCI team code|SAX|2001}} CSC–Tiscali
{{UCI team code|SAX|2002}} CSC–Tiscali
{{UCI team code|SAX|2003}} Team CSC
{{UCI team code|SAX|2004}} Team CSC
{{UCI team code|SAX|2005}} Team CSC
{{UCI team code|SAX|2006}} Team CSC
{{UCI team code|SAX|2007}} Team CSC
{{UCI team code|SAX|2008a}} Team CSC the name the team had in the first part of the 2008 season.
{{UCI team code|SAX|2008b}} CSC–Saxo Bank the name the team had in the last part of the 2008 season.
{{UCI team code|SAX|2009}} Team Saxo Bank
{{UCI team code|SAX|2010}} Team Saxo Bank
{{UCI team code|SAX|2011}} Saxo Bank–SunGard
{{UCI team code|SAX|2012a}} Team Saxo Bank
{{UCI team code|SAX|2012b}} Saxo Bank–Tinkoff Bank
{{UCI team code|SAX|2013}} Saxo–Tinkoff
{{UCI team code|SAX|2014}} Tinkoff–Saxo
{{UCI team code|SAX|nolink=yes}} Tinkoff the most recent name of the team, not linked.
{{UCI team code|SAX|1998|nolink=yes}} home–Jack & Jones the name of the team in 1998, not linked.

If an unknown year is added, the template will show a bad result, for example

  • {{UCI team code|SAX|1997}} gives [[Team Saxo Bank-Tinkoff Bank|Team Saxo Bank-Tinkoff Bank]].

If this happens, it can be that you made a mistake, or that the year is not in the template yet. If the year should be there but is not in the template, add it to the template or make a request that it should be added.
