Talk:2008–09 Israeli Premier League

Article layout change? (discussion)

How does the community think about a layout change for this article, especially for the Results section? Since the change would be bigger than the usual adaption of existing articles, I thought it would be better to have a discussion first.

Arguments supporting the case are an uniform look for all of UEFA's domestic leagues regarding standings and results. Further, listing every date for every league fixture is more appropriate for a sports almanac type of documentation where a lot of additional information is provided for every game. Since in most of the cases only the final standings of a year are important, a table containing all results should be all what is needed.

However, an argument opposing the case is that the uniformity of Israeli football articles would be hurt, since pretty much all of the articles use the current format.

The new layout (and the code behind it) would be comprehensible to those of Serbian Superliga 2008-09 and/or Danish Superliga 2008-09. The current map with the team locations would still fit on the right side of the table (this has been tested).

"Live" scores

Note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not any kind of newsticker. Thus, providing livescores is unacceptable, as this adds nothing to this article other than tons of unnecessary revisions. Once all games of a day have ended, you are more than welcome to contribute the complete changes for the day.

Let me additionally note that the <small>content</small> work around was only created to deal with extraordinary information. The display of Rounds is explicitly discouraged. Hockey-holic (talk) 16:56, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Results

Does anyone agree that with the article about lasts year ligat haal it was far less complicated to see the results? I think we should do something like that to this years ligat haal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fipplet (talk • contribs) 18:51, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

For me its nicer looking like it is now, no need to go through all rounds to see what the team did.

Location of teams in Ligat ha'Al 2008–09

I think we should have a new map look/system, same one like the Serbian Superliga 2008–09 and Fußball-Bundesliga 2008–09.
so people, who got the skills?

Iv'e redone a Israel map to look almost the same as the ones above, but I need help from an expert to remove the numbers from the side and make it so we see only the map with the country borders.

I will start to work on a map proposal based on the location map templates and post it here afterwards as soon as I have finished the Ekstraklasa 2008–09 standings, which are very complicated regarding head-to-head standings at the moment). Hockey-holic (talk) 22:13, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Done, the result can be seen on the right. The whole map needs some tweaking à la Premier League 2008–09, though, so feel free to alter the current version as much as you want. In any case I would propose to keep the current map until the map on the right is deemed worthy of the article. Hockey-holic (talk) 23:09, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Not sure if its only me but I think a transparent picture will be nicer looking as a map and even have the full teams name on the map so we can place it on the same location the other map is on.

Well iv'e redid my map using paint shop and redid the style so now we have a new map just like the other football leagues.
So what you all think of the new map?
