::::::: Rather than jamming these monstrosities at the top of the article I think it works better to use a standard wiki table to present tournament and match results near the end of the article. An example of this that I like is [[:Alexander Alekhine#Summary of results in competitions]]. The regular table format allows inclusion of a lot more information and in a format that is easier to understand. Placing a potentially large table near the end of an article is much better than putting it at the top and before the article body.
::::::: I am strongly opposed to use of any medals infobox in chess biographies, and I think they should be removed. [[User:Quale|Quale]] ([[User talk:Quale|talk]]) 07:08, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
::::::::I'm inclined to agree. Chess in general doesn't put a lot of emphasis on "medals". I don't really care if someone got a "bronze medal" at the Vietnamese Team Championship. They can be mentioned in the article, but shouldn't be in the infobox. [[User:MaxBrowne2|MaxBrowne2]] ([[User talk:MaxBrowne2|talk]]) 00:45, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
