Discussion Wikipedia's Little Jumpers

[Liam Boy]

So I've noticed clubs have these little club uniform sections in their wikipedia articles. North have never worn that away jumper, and I can only assume it's supposed to be the 90s style jumper with the kangaroo on it. Anyway I looked at the editor to see if there's a way to change it and I can't understand it at all. Anyone know anything about this?

Niche as ****

you're not wrong. but it's bugging me and i thought it might've bugged someone else

I changed it to a blue chest. Best I could do with my limited knowledge.

Also, here’s a list of possible designs:

Template:Football kit - Wikipedia

It recommends creating the template yourself and uploading it to use for accuracy.

Is this a little project we should get off the ground?

There is a big difference between this:




and this:



I'm also not happy about the shorts being so big but I don't think that can be helped.

I had discussions with someone who was updating Wikipedia pages back in about 2012.
I offered to make this into all different designs etc.
Nothing eventuated.

I mean why even put those graphics in when you've got Mero's amazing website anyway. Just link them to their 2019 uniforms page and that's it.

thanks for the help guys, this is much better if i do say so myself

You're doing a good deed.

Could you fix up Collingwood's clash a bit?

 

[Liam Boy]

i'll give it a go but without making the stripes weird and blurry i'm not sure what else could be done

 

[Liam Boy]

I put grey stripes between the black and white to simulate the pinstripes, i think it turned out pretty nice. also included a tiny approximation of the club logo

 

[Freight Train]

this is the kind of niche s**t that this board exists for.

love it.

 

[MKMatty]

Super niche and nerdy, yet here I am.

That away jumper would be pretty nice, official or not.

i don't much care for it. we've had so many different away jumpers of wildly varying quality over the years, I'd love the club to just stuck to White on Blue, Blue on White and 90s Bounding Roo for a while. it's a solid trio

Yeah got a feeling they'll stick with that trio. Have they ever tried using the roo on the new logo?

I'd love to see that on the wiki template...

the current logo is very strong to me. the angry kangaroo is reminiscent of the "Roosistence" symbol, and the fight to stay in Melbourne by extension. Something North people are all very proud of.

Awesome work

The Kangaroo's eye looks like a stylised map of Tasmania and with the heavy emphasis on the "North" the Melbourne could easily be changed to Hobart
