A row of the table listing quizbowlers who have appeared on Jeopardy!. For use in the Jeopardy! page.
|- | {{{2}}} || [[{{{1}}}]] || {{{3|0}}} || {{if|test={{{3|}}}|then={{if|test={{{winnings|}}}|then=${{{winnings}}} {{if|test={{{loss|}}}|then=(+${{{loss}}},000)}} }}|else=${{{winnings|0}}} {{if|test={{{loss|}}}|then=(+${{{loss}}},000)}} }} || {{{4|}}}{{{info|}}} |-
- {{{1}}} - The name of the player - will be made a link to their page on the wiki. This is an anonymous parameter, so it will take the first unnamed parameter.
- {{{2}}} - The year the player competed. In parentheses, the tournament (e.g. Teen, Teachers, College)
- {{{3}}} - The number of wins in regular season play. If left empty, will default to 0.
- winnings - Their total cash winnings. If a number of wins is entered, winnings will take not take default value, so it'll appear empty if nothing is entered. This is not a valid state, but will avoid showing incorrect data. If a number of wins is not entered (i.e. 0 wins), it will default to 0.
- loss - The money they earned for losing. Should typically be either 2 or 1 (which are displayed as 2,000 and 1,000). No default, because tournament participants receive money based on overall placement and thus do not receive separate money for getting 2nd/3rd, and because sufficiently old tournaments gave non-cash prizes for 2nd and 3rd. Note that this doesn't sort properly when the winnings are tied, but who cares.
- {{{4}}}/info - Additional information about the player. This is the 4th anonymous parameter, so will only work without a name if all previous parameters are provided (name, year, wins). If this is not the case, it can be manually specified using "info". It is a known bug that, if you embed a link into the info, it will need to explicitly be given the name "info" - it will not be displayed if left anonymous.
To view the column names for this table, see Template:Jeopardy! table start.
