Should the teams be grouped in their groupings when the draw comes out?

Yes, and then we will arrange the template like the one of the 2006 world cup 201.160.155.201 (talk) 04:42, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How will we style this when the draw is done?

I made two suggestions on this pages sandbox, for how it could look when the groups are starting to end

Template:Fb start

Template:Fb end

The most important there, should we divide the groups like that to save space? Should they go 1 or 2 (like it is now)?

1 2
a b a d
c d b e
e f c f

2nd one seems better. Also is it possible to arrange them in 4 columns by 2 rows instead of the current 2 columns by 4 rows. It looks like that could fit also since space in this template seems to be stressed in the vertical sense not the horizontal. Transaction Go (talk) 11:36, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Serbia and BR command

I have added a br command before Serbia twice now. Both times it has been reverted. Chandler posted an image showing why he thinks it is a bad idea at http://i.imgur.com/4HxDj.jpg. I have uploaded an image showing why not having the br is a bad idea File:2010 FIFA World Cup finalists example 20100624.png.

The problem is obviously skin related. I use Classic skin not Monobook. In Classic skin all the teams are on separate lines, so each group is 4 lines tall - except for Serbia which squeezes in with Ghana. In Monobook they are all on one line. The correct solution is almost certainly to get the template to have each group on one line in Classic skin. However I don't know how to make the separator template do that. -- SGBailey (talk) 09:26, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There's no problem with Classic either [1], there seems to be a problem on your end. chandler 09:33, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
