Multi-row alternative

I created an alternative that allows you to put multiple rows in a single succession box, for when a team wins a tournament multiple but nonconsecutive times.

  • Use Sbox_begin with the Tournament parameter
  • then use Sbox_row as many times as necessary with the previous, year, and next parameters.
  • then use Sbox_end with no parameters to end the table.

I think this would help clean up pages like Chicago that have a bunch of succession boxes with redundant rows that say stuff like "NAQT ICT Division I Overall Champion". For example:

NAQT ICT Division I Overall Champion
Preceded by
Year
Succeeded by
None
1997
Stanford
Stanford
1999
Illinois
Illinois
2001
Michigan

2003
Berkeley

2007
Maryland

Harvard

Any comments on this alternative?
