This template is used to display a football (soccer) player squad in a standard format. It is derived from Template:Football squad player, with additional features and changes which aim to resolve WP:ACCESS with that template.
In order to make easier the work of writing new squads, some alternative, shorter, names has been designed. So, you may now use {{Fs start2}}, {{Fs player2}} and {{Fs end2}} as alternative templates, using the same equivalent syntax of the other ones.
nonumber: Many clubs use squad numbers, but others do not. Adding |nonumber=yes to {{football squad start2}} will disable the number column entirely. If used, this parameter should also be added to every player's entry, as otherwise a dash will be shown.
nonat: Adding |nonat=yes to {{football squad start2}} will disable the nation column entirely. If used, nat should be omitted from every player's entry.
no: The shirt number for the player, if they have one. If the player's number is not known, or unassigned, then you can use the – character instead.
nat: The player's nationality. Use the name of the country, or its 3-letter IOC country code, rather than an adjective (e.g. "Spain" instead of "Spanish"). This is for the country that the player represents in international football (regardless of nationality of birth or citizenship, or non-FIFA sporting nationalities the player may use in other contexts). If this template is used in a non-FIFA context, then some other nationality might apply; however, this parameter is never for indication of birthplace as such, which has nothing to do with football.
natvar: If the relevant flag of the country is other that its current one, e.g. |natvar=1931. (see Template:Flagicon/doc for how to look up the available flag options for each country.)
pos: The position in which the player plays. You can use any of the four options below:
other: This is an optional parameter. You can add any related info to this parameter, like specifying captain, vice-captain, whether the player is on loan, etc. It will show additional info in the brackets after the player name. You do not have to specify it if neither applies.
The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the person's name parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia or via a browser tool operated by a reader, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
The template gives displays the shirt no., country, position and full name of a football (soccer) player. Also mentions if a player is a captain, vice-captain or on-loan.
