Talk:List of Grand Slam and related tennis records

Other slam records

@Fyunck(click) and ABC paulista:, you can replace the prose in List of Grand Slam and related tennis records#Grand Slam, Year-End Championship and Olympics with tables for individual non-calendar or calendar super/golden slam in the "Grand slam achievements" sections in the articles listed in the Template:Grand Slam champions navbox (bottom row). In my opinion, listing all possible instances is unnecessary but I am not goinf to split hairs because of it. Qwerty284651 (talk) 04:58, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

I can do that, but I'm having issues editing these tables since I can't see the changes I make, because of the scrooling that is necessary to see all entries, and I don't know how to temporarly remove it. If you teach me a way for me to visualize it whole, I'd appreciate. ABC paulista (talk) 21:20, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

It is much harder to edit scrolling tables and I'm not sure we need to scroll all of them... only really lengthy ones and ones that are likely to grow exponentially. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:23, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

@ABC paulista, how do you usually edit tables? Mobile or desktop? VE or source? Best way to edit them is to temporarily remove the scrollable add {{in use}} or {{uc}} above the table being edited during the edit session for ease of, well, editing.

I contained them with a div scroll to reduce vertical scrolling for all long tables on the page. , Temporarily remove them, edit and then restore. Code in question is <div style"height:40vh"/> or {{<div style="scroll-container" style=.../>}}. Just remove those to see the whole table and then edit accordingly. I made this, primarily, to save up on scrolling and for mobile users. If you do not like it in this article, feel free to revert this or all instances. I don't mind. Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:33, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

Did some testing: the fastest way to disable the scrolling containment is by changing 40vh -> 100vh (vh—width of an element (table) to be of X % of the viewport’s height). Qwerty284651 (talk) 23:24, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll try that later. I usually edit in my laptop because I prefer keyboard and mouse than touchscreen. ABC paulista (talk) 23:32, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

Golden Grand Slam, Golden Slam issue

This section is a mess. Both terms "Golden Grand Slam" and "Golden Slam" are in use today; Golden Slam more so, hence the name of the section. Both both must be mentioned as our readers will me seeing both in mainstream media. Also, de Groot and Alcott won the four majors in 2021 while winning the 2020 Olympics. It was not the 2021 Olympics! The people who qualified for 2020 Olympics did not need to requalify for 2021. I'm not advocating their names be removed, but this is an important aspect of the record and should be mentioned. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:32, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

Fyunck(click), the issue with the terminology is that this is not the article to elaborate on it. This article is just to list "who achieved what and when", if the reader wants further information about the achivement itself they should head to the Grand Slam (tennis) article, so the only information that should be contained here is the most known name of the achievement and it's criteria, anything else is to be further informed there. Trying to cite both here would mean that they have similar relevance, which is untrue per WP:COMMONNAME, so doing so would be WP:UNDUE.

About the 2021 Slams, while is true that the Olympics were supposed to be played on 2020, by all intentions and purposes it was played in 2021. It started in 2021, played in 2021, ended in 2021, was part of the 2021 calendar of both ATP, WTA and ITF and pretty much all media, specialists and relevant people and organizations consider it a 2021 title. I've never seen anyone questioning this, and these that actually do are probably part of a vast minority. ABC paulista (talk) 21:50, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

They didn't have a selection committee for the 2021 olympics, they did it in 2020. The Olympics themselves say it was the 2020 Olympiad. That should be noted here and to do otherwise confuses our readers when they see 2021 on the four majors and 2020 on the olympics. And it is quite simple, since this is a stand-alone article to make sure the readers know that the terminology for GoldenGrandSlam/GoldenSlam is used throughout our sources. Golden Grand Slam is not some archaic term... it is used today. Readers could be scratching their heads and saying what about Golden Grand Slam I heard on the news today? My small addition covers that and yours leaves them confused. And your WP:COMMONNAME site... that links to a discussion of titles, not prose. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:17, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

It doesn't matter how the Olympics call or see themselves, or when the qualification was held, since the subject here is solely about tennis, and for the tennis world the Tokyo Olympics were part of the 2021 season. We don't even need to cite the year in which the event was branded, since 2021 Olympics also disambiguates there, and on the tables it can be linked via [[2020 Summer Olympics|2021]] just fine.

About the terminology, "Golden Grand Slam" is way, way less common than "Golden Slam", and not that used on the mainstream media nowadays, so the reader is less likely to hear about the earlier than the latter. And the ones that do use the former tend to use both interchangeably, like France 24, for example. Even the organizations like the majors tehmselves, ITF and the associations refer more as Golden Slam than Golden Grand Slam.

And even if they indded came here for "Golden Grand Slam", they should be redireceted to Grand Slam (tennis)#Golden Slam, the section that properly explain the similarities about the terminologies, not here. Remeber that we have to be WP:SUCCINCT and try to relay the essential information that belongs to the scope of this article. If readers come here, it's probably because they already have a grasp on these concepts, otherwise they should be redirected to where they can properly learn about it.

Also, WP:COMMONNAME applies also for the sections per MOS:HEAD (Section headings should generally follow the guidance for article titles), and it'd be pretty weird to show one name on the title and other on the prose. ABC paulista (talk) 23:27, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

It is less common but not way way less common. It's on the Wimbledon website which is going on right now. The Australian Open website had an article on it in May of this year. And Tennis Now put out an article June 26, 2024 on Steffi's Golden Grand Slam. And yes commonname applies to section headings also, but that hasn't changed in the article. Prose is always more specific and explains the concept in much more detail. And again we aren't talking about showing one version in section heading and another in prose. We are talking about showing the most common in section heading and both terms explained in prose. Huge difference that is being censored. And it's not a question of what we can do to hide the fact it was 2021 for the four majors and 2020 for the Olympics, it's what should be explained to our readers. Fyunck(click) (talk) 02:38, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

It's not about censorship and/or hiding information, it's about importance and relevance.

Yes, Golden Grand Slam can be thrown here and there sometimes, but overall the Golden Slam terminology is more proeminent than the former (Google Search presents 10 times more "Golden Slam" results for either Graf or Djokovic than "Golden Grand Slam", for example). By these metrics, terms like "calendar golden slam" and "calendar-year golden slam" also show for a relevant number of times, closer to "Golden Grand Slam" than it is to "Golden Slam" per se.

But here we are dealing with a list article, and these should contain as little prose as possible, only having the absolute essential for the reader to understand what's being talked about on the tables, and the terminology is not one of these essential info. There's a proper place where the terminology can be explained and properly expanded: Grand Slam (tennis)#Golden Slam, not here. We don't have to mention both terms every single time the Golden Slam is being mentioned, only the most common name is enough, is already recognizable for the majority of cases, such as this.

About the Olympics, we shoudn't treat the readers as babies or dumb, idiots, they understand the concept of "links" and know that they can click on verbatims to go to an article on a specific subject, and one of the first information contained there is how the 2020 Olympics were held in 2021 (Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the event was postponed to 2021 on 24 March 2020 due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, [...] However, the event retained the Tokyo 2020 branding for marketing purposes.).

But if you so insist, I woudn't complain if you add a note, like ITF did: 2021: Diede de Groot (NED) achieved a unique 'Golden Slam', also winning gold at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics (which were held in 2021), but your previous dismissal of the Wheelchair Golden Slam, or attempt to "asterisk" them, for this reasoning was not acceptable per WP:OR.

TL;DR, avoid WP:TOOMUCH. Everything has its own place, and these are irrelevant to this article, one doesn't need to overexplain everything everytime everywhere everywhen. People know links and understand its function and usage, our purpose is to facilitate this navigation. ABC paulista (talk) 04:09, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

We can agree on some of this. I could see making that part on de Groot and Alcott as a note exactly as you mentioned. That can work just fine. But I didn't see any metric by wikipedia to curtail prose, especially on something that has two connotations in real life usage. This is a section on the Golden Slam. The prose we add that says Golden Slam should be accompanied by Golden Grand Slam on first mention since they are used interchangeably in sources. We treat the fact the elementary kids read these articles also... not dumb, not babies, not idiots... but kids and also adults who are drawn here from watching Wimbledon. Or folks who come here after reading about Graf at the Tennis Hall of Fame. The mention of Golden Grand Slam should stay as I wrote it. It takes up barely any space and is quick and to the point..."A player who wins all four majors and the Olympic gold medal (or a Paralympic gold medal) in a single season is said to have achieved a "Golden Slam" or "Golden Grand Slam"." I see no issue with that at all but I will acquiesce to your note on the other item. Fyunck(click) (talk) 07:29, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

You act like Grand Slam (tennis) page doesn't exist, and that this one is the first that people enter when looking for information about the Grand Slam and its related concepts, but its actually the opposite: As shown in the Wikidata, the Grand Slam page has almost 10 times more traffic than this one, when searching for "Golden Grand Slam" on Google, the Grand Slam (tennis) page is the first Wikipedia's one to appear, on the first page, and when searched here, that page is the first to appear, and this one is only the fourth one to appear, so it's way more likeky that someone would end up there than here when searching for these terms.

And that's how this stuff should work, since this list is supposed to be accessed by people who already have a grasp about these concepts, so it doesn't make sense to elaborate further on concepts that are already covered by an article that exists for this. If we keep adding info that don't aggregate to the understanding to these lists, it could have adverse effects to it:

• Per MOS:LONGSEQ, prose should be limited to what's necessary to understand the subject, otherwise the prose format should take precedence over lists and tables, per MOS:USEPROSE, and if that's the case than the subject doesn't belong here, since this is a List article so by definition its info should be formatted to be a list.
• It could open a precedent that could bloat the article overall with other denominations. Aside from "Golden Slam" and "Golden Grand Slam", there are other denominations used to refer to this achievement, so we coud end up with phrases like A player who wins all four majors and the Olympic gold medal (or a Paralympic gold medal) in a single season is said to have achieved a A player who wins all four majors and the Olympic gold medal (or a Paralympic gold medal) in a single season is said to have achieved a "Golden Slam", or "Golden Grand Slam", or "Calendar Golden Slam", or "Calendar-Year Golden Slam", and etc. And we have to consider that all the other concepts also have alternative denominations, with no good counter-argument to impede it. The Grand Slam concept is especially notorious for having multiples names and acronyms.
• It could lead to here becoming more and more similar to the Grand Slam (tennis) article, and that would be WP:REDUNDANT, and that could lead to a undesired merge for WP:OVERLAP. Honestly, one could already argue that all these sections without tables could be merged back into the Grand Slam (tennis) article, since there's no information here that is not already stated there.

Even if someone, for whatever reason, end up here first with no prior knowledge on the subject, the can easily navigate their way to the proper articles, as long as they are properly linked here. We don't need to spoon-feed the reader, they can feed themselves as long as the info is kept properly organized and connected. Even elementary kids undertsand the concept of links and know how to use them, sometimes even better than proper adults. ABC paulista (talk) 01:25, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

It doesn't matter. Wikipedia does not have sub-pages. This should be a standalone article and the subject matter, if possible, should be explained. This is such a simple thing that I have no idea why you would object. This is not an expose on the subject, this is short and sweet. And readers get directed here for Novak Djokovic' article, Jannik Sinner's article, Chris Evert's article, and heaps of others. Fyunck(click) (talk) 03:49, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

No article exists within a bubble, all of them are supposed to be inteconnected to give the reader the option to move into anoter topics, in order to either gain better understanding or related concepts that they had little or no prior knowledge, or to expand futher on specific subject that they found particularly interesting, because every subject requires knowledge of related concepts in order to be properly understood, but it's not their purpose to explain on those, so they link to those that do expand on them.

No article is supposed to go futher beyond its own scope and since this is a WP:STANDALONE list article, its scope is limited to the understanding of the data that it display. The List of FIFA World Cup finals don't need to cite that the sport is also known as "soccer" in some countries in order to properly convey its contents, since there's a proper article that covers this question for those who might need, or the List of the most intense tropical cyclones doesn't need to cite why they are called either "Cyclones", "Hurricanes" or "Typhoon", because that's the kind of knowledge required for one to understand the information displayed there, but that knowledge itself has no bearing on that content per se, thus explanation for the different terminology is displayed in its proper article.

Also, remember that 3 years ago we agreed to move the tables that were previously on the Grand Slam page to here and the ones specific to each discipline, in order to better organize the contents. And with that the functions were divided with that one becoming a prose article focusing on explaining the concepts (terminology included) and this one serving to display notable data about these. ABC paulista (talk) 23:26, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

We appear to be polar opposites on this one. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:07, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

FWIW, I created a redirection on Golden Grand Slam‎, that leads to that article's Golden Slam section. ABC paulista (talk) 17:05, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Just as a head's up. The following wiki markup

{{sticky header}}
{| class="wikitable sticky-header"
|-class=sticky-row

is reserved for containing long tables in div scroll to save up on vertical scrolling (for aesthetic purposes), not for short tables. Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:27, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Career Grand Slam table

Should we add a table for the Carrer Slam instances? Although that would seem to be the proper way to go since all the other Grand Slam-related tables are included here, I'm concerned about the size of such, which could be 4 of 5 times bigger than the current Carrer Golden and Super Slams are. ABC paulista (talk) 20:00, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Only just now seeing the topic. You can mention in a sentence how many players have completed the career grand slam overall OR you can add a collapsed table with all the instances. Qwerty284651 (talk) 16:24, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I feel like mentioning the amount of players who achieved it would overlap with a similar table on the Grand Slam (tennis)#Career Grand Slam, so I'd favor the latter option. ABC paulista (talk) 16:58, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I transcluded said table to the top of the section to save up on space or list all of them in a collapsed table. Qwerty284651 (talk) 17:36, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I kinda disagree, due to WP:REDUNDANT. If they were to be mentioned here, I feel that making a full table would have some value that woudn't be found anywhere. My only concern is about the size, but if that's not a problem, then I can make it no problem. ABC paulista (talk) 17:42, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Another option, maybe due to consistency and page size, both the Career Golden Slam and the Career Super Slam should have their info transcluded from the same page, instead of having their own table. That's also an option, if it's deemed that these tables don't bring enough noteworthy info to justify their standalone existance. ABC paulista (talk) 17:55, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Either transclude the 3 (career grand, golden and super slam) tables for consistency or create a standalone career grand slam one to list all 3 combination instances in their respective tables.

The page is well below the readable page size threshold per WP:SIZERULE (see current page size), which consists mostly of tables, which don't count towards prose. Adding the career grand slam table will add to the page's markup size but not prose.Qwerty284651 (talk) 18:05, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I tried to transclude the Career Slam tables, but it didn't work. If possible, could you please transclude them here? I'm thinking of making a table "per player" instead of the current "per instance", to showcase and highlight the amount of times each palyer achieved them per discipline. ABC paulista (talk) 18:30, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

You can transclude a section or part of it (such as a table) with the help of Help:Labeled section transclusion#Markup. To transclude parts of section encompass the part you want to transclude with <section begin=X name/> and <section end=X name/> on the source page and then use {{#section:section name|section label}} on the target page. Qwerty284651 (talk) 19:02, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Meant to write without div. Apologies.

See example: (transclusion markup on source page, followed by transclusion on target page). Qwerty284651 (talk) 20:59, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Which career slam tables did you mean? Can you give an example of "per player" table? Qwerty284651 (talk) 19:18, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I gave it some thought and I think I get which tables you meant. Would you like all the career slam tables:

List of Grand Slam men's singles champions#Career Grand Slam

List of Grand Slam women's singles champions#Career Grand Slam

List of Grand Slam men's doubles champions#Career Grand Slam

List of Grand Slam women's doubles champions#Career Grand Slam

List of Grand Slam mixed doubles champions#Career Grand Slam

List of men's wheelchair tennis champions#Career Grand Slam

List of women's wheelchair tennis champions#Career Grand Slam

List of quad wheelchair tennis champions#Career Grand Slam

List of men's wheelchair tennis champions#Career Grand Slam

List of women's wheelchair tennis champions#Career Grand Slam

List of quad wheelchair tennis champions#Career Grand Slam transcluded separately to the Career Grand Slam section one below the other or all merged into one big table? I assume no juniors, only main tour and wheelchair. Qwerty284651 (talk) 21:18, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Made a draft of tables listed separately. Thoughts? Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:24, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

My original idea was to merge them all together, juniors included, and format them on the same way that the others are currently formatted. But currently I'm favoring the "per player" table, since it seems to offer more "original" context and require less work to be updated. ABC paulista (talk) 22:34, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

If I understand you correctly, you would have all main, wheelchair and junior listed in 1 merged compact "per player" table. With "years of completion" or just "how many times" a player completed CGS? Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:56, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Mostly "how many times", linking to the respective sections to each respective discipline, where the years could be seen. ABC paulista (talk) 23:26, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Similar to the CGS's table format? Qwerty284651, which wikilinks to the respective sections but you would rather have it per player. I feel a single instance of a link to the respective section will suffice. Linking it for each player each time can come off as repetitive. (talk) 23:37, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

No, I explained it below. Maybe the discussion could continue there. ABC paulista (talk) 00:01, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Added a separate subsection for the table's format. Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:10, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

I meant something like the "Per Player" table on the "Winners" section, that the Grand Slam article used to have. ABC paulista (talk) 22:31, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Jrs mixed in with pros???? I wouldn't list the wheelchair aspect merged together either. I'd have to see it. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:10, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I don't mind not having juniors. We already have charts with both pro and wheelchair in List of Grand Slam and related tennis records#Grand Slam, Year-End Championship and Olympics. Qwerty284651 (talk) 23:21, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I mean, in the current tables they are all already merged together, so I don't see any issue on the matter. ABC paulista (talk) 23:24, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

"Per player" table format discussion

@ABC paulista, can you provide an example, please? Qwerty284651 (talk) 23:25, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Qwerty284651 I've took the liberty to add my proposal in your sandbox, so you, Fyunck(click) and anyone elase can review. My idea is that these tables would substitute the current ones for the Grand, Golden and Super Slams. Maybe we could also add the same for the other kinds of slams as well. ABC paulista (talk) 23:59, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I would list the actual disciplines: men's singles, quad doubles, etc., not just senior and wheelchair. Also, senior is for retired players, pro is for active. And many missing instances of CGS need to be added.

I removed the old table so we can edit only one table. Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:04, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

I'd like to see your proposal about the disciplines, how it'd work. ABC paulista (talk) 00:13, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

You would need 2 more columns for the wheelchair quads singles and doubles, because you can't list them under mixed. Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:35, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

I did my part. Only the missing players and instances of CGS need adding. The ball's on your side of the court. Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:53, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

I think that quad players could also be listed under singles and doubles, and the distinction could be made under the "Discipline" column. ABC paulista (talk) 01:16, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

"Wheelchair" and "wheelchair quad" in lieu of the 2 quad columns? Qwerty284651 (talk) 01:28, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Yes, that's the idea. Or, we could divide the disciplines the same way they are on the ones currently used at the Grand Slam (tennis) article, with each individual discipline having their own column. That could be useful in case any player achieve slams on both junior and professional categories. ABC paulista (talk) 02:08, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Added a todo list. Feel free to add if I missed anything. Qwerty284651 (talk) 01:32, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, I do not like the term senior at all. Are they on medicare? And "discipline" is not the correct term. Discipline is something like women's singles, not the tour they compete under. Fyunck(click) (talk) 06:35, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Well, these are provisional terms, just placeholders for the finalized table. Since we're still brainstorming this, there's plenty of time for any changes to be made. ABC paulista (talk) 16:30, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

New versions

I added versions 2a, 2b, 2c, 3a and 3b in my sandbox. Leaning towards 2a or 3b. Would gladly scratch version 1 to avoid the confusion with disciplines and the usage of "senior". Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:37, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

I prefer 2b because I don't like empty cells on a table, and I feel that such tables would have a lot of them ABC paulista (talk) 01:48, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

On first look I far prefer the 3a/3b charts, 3a the best. No one has to decipher a key. My biggest concern is still the bit of lumping them together. Do outside sources lump them together? Edberg's 1 equaling Mo Connolly's 1? Vergeer's total compared to Navratilova's? To be honest It's probably hard to find women's singles compared to men's. Because if we cant find reliable standard websites (not betting sites) comparing all these totals we could be looking at original research. That can come back to bite us at a future date. Fyunck(click) (talk) 02:32, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

I think that neither totaling them together, nor equating their notability are the main point here, but to show who did in what discipline in a simple way, that can also distinguish itself from other articles, and some players did in fact achieve some of those in multiple disciplines. That's why I think that it's important for the table to be sortable, in which both option 3 wouldn't work.

For all intentions and purposes, the current structure employed here already lump them together, but in a way that can be considered redundant with the lists that aleady exist on each disciplines' respective pages. ABC paulista (talk) 03:33, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

But once you put in into a No. column you are automatically comparing their totals against each other. So Margaret Court has three Grand Slams and Edberg has one Grand Slam. It's why it wouldnt be such a bad idea to have these tables split by discipline and sex. They'd be one after another but you'd be comparing apples with apples and oranges with oranges instead of apples with oranges. Fyunck(click) (talk) 03:47, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

@Fyunck(click):, your little correction changes everything. I thought you were against the splitting of the table by sex and discipline. This pretty much debunks/rejects version 4. Next time sign your correction or cross it out with strikethrough. If I hadn't checked the history, I wouldn't have noticed the change. Qwerty284651 (talk) 23:04, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Here is version 5: a variation of version 1, accounting for Fyunck's It's why it wouldnt be such a bad idea to have these tables split by discipline and sex.. Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:17, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Version 5

For me, Version 5 is the one to go. About the column name, we could name it "Tour", or "Division" which is the one used by ITF in its website to describe them. ABC paulista (talk) 00:38, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Division are pretty much disciplines. But where would you place "men's" and "women"s? Gender? The columns has both genders as well as the wheelchair/quad + gender (singles), (doubles) that are omitted from the discipline description and added in the subsequent columns instead. Sort of as a hybrid of gender/discipline. Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:51, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Now they are called classes. Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:53, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Only in the paralympics, but I don't see issue with this terminology. ABC paulista (talk) 01:17, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Is it really necessary to divide per gender? If yes, then maybe Version 4 would work better than this one. ABC paulista (talk) 01:23, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

What would you call it instead of women's singles (singles is one of the tally columns)? I omitted singles/doubles from the discipline column to avoid double mentioning singles/doubles. If we had all disciplines listed in the 2nd column, then we revert back to listing them by disciplines ONLY and thus making the last 3 "tally" columns obsolete, thereby going backwards. The goal is to list all instances in a table with as few columns as possible. V5 I think best fits the bill. I would name the column: "classes" with a note: "Singles" and "doubles" already included in the third and fourth columns." Qwerty284651 (talk) 02:31, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

In this case, we can only call them "men's" and "women's", without any other distinction. The tournaments themselves don't add any other distinction for them, adding distinctions on the wheelchair, junior and invitational ones. We could follow suit. ABC paulista (talk) 02:42, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Invitationals? As in legends? Ages above 45? Qwerty284651 (talk) 02:45, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Yes, that's what Wimbledon calls them, at least. ABC paulista (talk) 03:05, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

You want those added as well? Qwerty284651 (talk) 03:20, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

No, these are invitation/exhibitional, not proper competitions. AFAIK no one tally the winners, I don't think that the tournaments themselves include them as oficial champions as well. ABC paulista (talk) 16:21, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

So, not include them then. No, they aren't official events. Qwerty284651 (talk) 16:40, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Named the column "classes" until we come up with a better name for it. Qwerty284651 (talk) 16:50, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Is there anything else you want modified for the "CGS per player" table or is it pretty much settled? Qwerty284651 (talk) 23:45, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

I think that the table is now complete, the result is great IMO. I'm thinking of waiting until weekend to implement them here, to see if anyone else gives feedback on it. ABC paulista (talk) 00:06, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

How would you like to have it sorted initially? By player in alphabetic order or most disciplines? Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:34, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

Alphabetical seems the easier way to keep it mantained and updated, IMO. ABC paulista (talk) 03:04, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

Very well. Will you create the table yourself? Qwerty284651 (talk) 07:33, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

That's the idea, it's the easy part now that we settled at a standardized format. But if you want to do it youself, feel free to. ABC paulista (talk) 21:45, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

I made the 1st column sort sort alphabetically. I can do the formatting afterwards. Qwerty284651 (talk) 02:35, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

And what would v6 be used for? Didn't we settle with v5? ABC paulista (talk) 20:21, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

We did settle with V5. I am using V6 as a springboard to make V5 faster, because all the required data is in V6. We just need to compile it in V5. "Player" column now sorts alphabetically for ease of V5 table creation. That's all. Qwerty284651 (talk) 20:53, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

I see, fine then. ABC paulista (talk) 21:01, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Here is a headstart. Feel free to finish the rest. Qwerty284651 (talk) 13:22, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, I'll work the rest this week. ABC paulista (talk) 23:35, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Version 5 continued discussion

Thanks for creating the table. By initial alphabetic order I meant sorting alphabetically by last name not first name. When you click the sorting arrow in the first column "Player" it sorts by last name not first. See the sort code in source. Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:44, 21 August 2024 (UTC)

I noticed that, that's why I chose to organize them alphabetically by first name, so it would show a different order when the column was sorted by clicking the arrow. I also thought about organizing them by nationality, but since some of them represented multiple countries througout their career, I realized that it wouldn't have worked as well as desired. ABC paulista (talk) 23:38, 21 August 2024 (UTC)

Do we add dashes - in the empty cells or not? Qwerty284651 (talk) 01:12, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Maybe, but more importantly I think that a "N/A" should be added in the "Mixed" column for the disciplines that don't hold such competitions, like Wheelchair and Junior ones. ABC paulista (talk) 03:05, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

For N/A we can use {{n/a}}, for e.g., {{n/a|n/a}} or {{n/a|N/A}} or {{n/a|-}}. Or a plain n/a or N/A without the gray background that {{n/a}} creates. Qwerty284651 (talk) 15:34, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

I think that the grey background is necessary to emphasize the idea that these events aren't contested, but maybe it hould be better if the cells were colored grey as a whole, not only areond the letters. ABC paulista (talk) 16:26, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

I added the n/a. Do you want uppercase N/A or lowercase n/a inside the n/a template? Qwerty284651 (talk) 16:31, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Both are good, but I kinda prefer uppercase. ABC paulista (talk) 16:35, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Here's 6 variations of n/a you can choose from below. Qwerty284651 (talk) 20:41, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Version 5 variations with N/A

A player who wins all four majors during his or her career is said to have achieved a "Career Grand Slam". S Singles D Doubles X Mixed doubles n/a Disciplines unavailable Version 5a Per player Player Discipline Class S D X Yui Kamiji Wheelchair women 4 n/a Version 5b Per player Player Discipline Class S D X Yui Kamiji Wheelchair women 4 N/A Version 5c Per player Player Discipline Class S D X Yui Kamiji Wheelchair women 4 n/a Version 5d Per player Player Discipline Class S D X Yui Kamiji Wheelchair women 4 N/A Version 5e Per player Player Discipline Class S D X Yui Kamiji Wheelchair women 4 - Version 5f Per player Player Discipline Class S D X Yui Kamiji Wheelchair women 4 –

I prefer 5d if we are to add the dashed on the cases where players didn't achieve a Cerrer Slam. If not, then 5F seems slightly more pelasing to the eyes. ABC paulista (talk) 21:54, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Either one, 5d or 5f, works for me. Your call. Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:11, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Then, let's go with 5F for now. ABC paulista (talk) 22:19, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

There's no need for a column to show the total of times each player achieved such, just counting the amount of times per discipline for each player is enough. The objective is to tally the numbers, not to rank them. ABC paulista (talk) 21:24, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

Since there is no need for a "totals" column, we can have a sortable table:

• M-men's
• W-women's
• S-singles
• D-doubles
• X-mixed (doubles)
• WC-wheelchair
• Q-quad
• JR/J-junior

1. col1: the 1st column "Players" for players listed in alphabetic ascending order;
2. either:

a) col2-onwards: a column for each discipline (which will create a messy wide table: MS, MD, WS, WD, XD, WCMS, WCMD, WCWS, WCWD, QS, QD, JRS, JRD,...)

b) col2: a "discipline" column: differentiating between men's, women's and WC variations (regular and quad) – excluding singles, doubles and mixed + col3-5: S, D, X (hybrid table of discipline and S D X columns, where singles, doubles, and mixed are indicated with the 3 columns; 5 in total).

We can merge all tables of the aforementioned disciplines' tables into 1 following the same table layout in the section.

The newly created table would take up cca. 30kB (cca. 70kB for the whole section=1/3 of page's size). We can resolve this by moving the section to a namesake page or subpage and then trasclude it to the main article to reduce load time (albeit minimal). Qwerty284651 (talk) 21:32, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

With the per player "career grand slam table" added, the Grand Slam, Year-End Championship and Olympics section takes up 35% of the whole article (82 out of 232 kB). The only logical explanation is to split the article by moving the section to a new page and then transclude it to this page without changing the main page's appearance just reduce the latter's size. Qwerty284651 (talk) 01:12, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

My idea is to apply the same table format in the other subsections, so I assume that the section's size will shrink a bit. We should wait until it's done to decide any further changes, but right off the bat I don't see how beneficial would be such split aside from the size matter. ABC paulista (talk) 02:57, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

I would retain the current layout of the other tables. Maybe merge multiple instances into 1 (example).

By reducing the page's size, the loading time for the page reduces as well. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Olympics/Summer articles#Progress tables. They've been put on their own pages and then transcluded (three behemoths: table 1, table 2 and table 3). I am not saying all tables should go on their own page (or subpage) but rather on one (a one stop shop) for ease of editing. Qwerty284651 (talk) 15:36, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

I idealized this table in order to link to the respective instances in their respective disciplines' articles, in order to standardize their layout and reduce redundancy between them. It wouldn't make sense for a specific table to be developed and be applied in only the Career Slam cases. And I don't think that merging the instances would work well, when there's many playes and many disciplines to consider. ABC paulista (talk) 16:33, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

Isn't 2b my original suggestion? If yes, what would be the nomeclature adopted for the "disciplines"? ABC paulista (talk) 16:34, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

In my opinion: it should still be called "discipline", as it encompasses them specifically. Spekaing of which, I created version 4 (see above), where I've listed all disciplines to avoid lumping thereof as that might appear as original research per Fyunck; included all disciplines sans juniors (as the jury is still out on that one: 2 other instances are missing from the section, so TBD on the juniors discipline's inclusion). Although the table's wide it does list all disciplines (with sticky headers navigating the table will be unhindered). Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:47, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

About juniors, honestly I see no "jury" on these ones, since they are legit regarded in the tennis world: ITF includes Edberg's calendar slam on its "roll of honour", and the Hall of Fame also highlight it, while Kratzmann's career doubles' one is mentioned. Being juniors doesn't undermine or invalidade the achievement itself, they are as valid as the others conceptwise. ABC paulista (talk) 01:14, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

It is a phrase: "jury is out". I am not against its addition. Only saying it hasn't been decided for it. Since edberg's JR CGS and Kratzmann's junior records have never been added in CGS and related records lists. Qwerty284651 (talk) 01:59, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

I know that it's a slang, is just that I don't see a valid discussion on the matter, because the matter is about the achievement and not the disciplines, so any competition that is held in all 4 slams are eligible to achieve a Slam. Outside wikipedia there aren't many CGS lsts, and almost all only list the able-bodied singles' ones, so I wouldn't put much stock on the lack of mentions on those. ABC paulista (talk) 02:38, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

It's technically a colloquial phrase not slang but that is not the point of this discussion.

I would already add the junior instances: singles and junior doubles CGS records as I see we are reaching consensus on their addition but not before we come up with a color code like we have for the other disciplines. Qwerty284651 (talk) 02:44, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

I do question the necessity of color codes in this case, but on the older Grand Slam page it was green. ABC paulista (talk) 02:58, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Good question. Do we need color codes for disciplines at all. They are there just for aesthetics more than anything. If we decide to keep the colors, then we still need to decide on a color for junior doubles RGB color picker. Qwerty284651 (talk) 03:04, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

There would be no need to pick up a color for discipline, only for tour/gender. Version 4 list the disciplines on its columns, and version 5 don't make distinction between singles, doubles and mixed outside. Specifing singles/doubles/mixed on a column outside the tallying would be unnecessary. ABC paulista (talk) 03:11, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Got it. Qwerty284651 (talk) 03:25, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Versions continued discussion 2

Right now I'd lean towards version 6. It's the cleanest that needs no deciphering. It's separated by discipline which most readers would expect. I do wonder the same as ABC on whether we actually need links to every event they won. Why not a column that says "Year of completion" and only list the year that finalized the completion of the Career Grand Slam? One other thing. A chart like this could only be used on this article... it would have no precedence for another article unless it was brought to Tennis Project talk in it's final state. Fyunck(click) (talk) 17:52, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

@Fyunck(click), version 6 was used to create version 5. It is the truncated version with all CGS instances of a player merged into 1 to reduce size and simplify it by removing the 4 majors columns. Although V5 deviates from the rest of the charts in the section by design, it allows for a simpler look.

ABC proposed to have Version 5, namely 5f,'s format be applied to the rest of the charts to decrease the overall page's size. See #Versions continued discussion: The newly created table would take up.... What are your thoughts on that? Qwerty284651 (talk) 18:44, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, but your version 5 6 is by far the best. I'd have it in a sliding chart, but chronological by discipline is the way to go. If you don't like a name being done multiple times, that can easily be remedied by only showing the year of completion. That person would have multiple years of completion. You would simply add the year of each completion, and next to the person's name it would (5x). It always seems like people try to cram too much into a chart, use more and more one or three-letter abbreviations, and they become busier and busier and harder to read. As far as applying it to other charts, not a fan at all. The Grand Slam winner chart is by far the best and doesn't need tinkering. You made it into a slide chart, and that's fine since it didn't destroy the essence. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:01, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, but your version 5 is by far the best. Version 5 or version 6? I am confused.

If you don't like a name being done multiple times, that can easily be remedied by only showing the year of completion. That person would have multiple years of completion. You would simply add the year of each completion, and next to the person's name it would (5x). Can you provide an example of what this chart would look like in your sandbox or here? Qwerty284651 (talk) 19:12, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Sorry I meant 6. So just the mens section like this:

Version 6
Player Discipline Year of completion Fred Perry Men's singles 1935 Don Budge 1938 Rod Laver 1962, 1969 Roy Emerson (2x) 1964, 1967 Andre Agassi 1999 Roger Federer 2009 Rafael Nadal (2x) 2010, 2022 Novak Djokovic (3x) 2016, 2021, 2023

Version 6b

Separate tables, so "Men's singles" would be: Men's singles Player Completion Fred Perry 1935 Don Budge 1938 Rod Laver 1962, 1969 Roy Emerson (2x) 1964, 1967 Andre Agassi 1999 Roger Federer 2009 Rafael Nadal (2x) 2010, 2022 Novak Djokovic (3x) 2016, 2021, 2023 or together tables: Men's singles Player Completion Fred Perry 1935 Don Budge 1938 Rod Laver 1962, 1969 Roy Emerson (2x) 1964, 1967 Andre Agassi 1999 Roger Federer 2009 Rafael Nadal (2x) 2010, 2022 Novak Djokovic (3x) 2016, 2021, 2023 Women's singles Player Completion Maureen Connolly 1953 Doris Hart 1954 Shirley Fry Irvin 1957 Margaret Court (3x) 1963, 1965, 1970 Billie Jean King 1972 Chris Evert (2x) 1982, 1984 Martina Navratilova (2x) 1983, 1984 Steffi Graf (4x) 1988, 1989, 1993, 1995 Serena Williams (3x) 2003, 2013, 2015 Maria Sharapova 2012

It's easy to read, no key needed, it's chronological, and it's by discipline with no bolding needed. Whether we link the year of completion is optional. ABC paulista I believe was saying we don't need to list/link every year and I agree. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:21, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

I am still leaning towards V5 because of its simplicity and combined instances of each player. In V6 I would color code all disciplines and wikilink them to their respective pages; bolden the years when a Calendar Grand Slam was achieved, albeit those are few. Rename "year of completion" to "year" (to keep the column narrow) without links. Qwerty284651 (talk) 19:43, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Navratilova, Shriver have had consecutive years of CGS success: merging the years (1983-85) looks better than (1983, 1984, 1985)...years may vary, just throwing an example. Qwerty284651 (talk) 19:47, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Color code is fine, linking the discipline is fine, unlink the year is fine. 1983-85 is fine but is a little less visual. Many readers scroll down a chart (like me) and can readily see if someone won more than another. With 1983-85 it will look like they won less than 1986, 1999. Wikipedia has said over and over that we need to keep bolding to a minimum. If we only have a single year in a column we have no need to bold it. And if we have only "year" some reader is surely going to say year? year of start or year of end? I recall that happening in another chart. Once you have someone winning 3x like Djokovic, or 5x for other folks, that is wider than Year of completion. One of the problems with V.5 is all the disciplines are merged together on first visual. That's a deal breaker in my book. Readers want to see it by discipline not wheelchairs merged with singles. Plus how the heck did you come up with the player name order? I cant figure it out. And the classes are really confusing too. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:52, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Okay, fine. "Year of completion" it is. As long as it wraps in 2 lines, it's fine.

Players are ordered by first name in alphabetic ascending order (ABC's idea) I noticed that, that's why I chose to organize them alphabetically by first name, so it would show a different order when the column was sorted by clicking the arrow... Qwerty284651 (talk) 20:14, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Here is the part of discussion about the alphabetical order. Qwerty284651 (talk) 21:56, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

By merging disciplines we had to come up with a way to distinguish between singles, doubles and mixed as well as wheelchair. There are disciplines such wheelchair men's singles, doubles, etc. All "singles", "doubles" and "mixed doubles" were removed from the disciplines' names in the "class", for lack of a better term, column because they were already represented in S, D and X columns. This was the thinking process behind version 5's design. Qwerty284651 (talk) 20:44, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

When I unhide your version 5 above it is NOT in alphabetical order by first name. I have no idea what order it's in. Fyunck(click) (talk) 21:33, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

I am talking about the final version (V 5f), which is already implemented in the article List of Grand Slam and related tennis records#Career Grand Slam diff. The one you are referring to is just a design template I added for archiving purposes. Qwerty284651 (talk) 21:43, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Ah. Trouble is the version in highlights in this talk is not 5f. I can't see a 5f heading and when people look back through these discussions the only version 5 is the one I see listed. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:37, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

In my opnion, the V6 is a mere copypaste of the various tables that exist in each respective discipline's lists, and if it were to be apllied here it sould be sorted chronologially overall, encompassing all disciplines, similar to how the Grand Slam, Career Golden Slam and Career Super Slam currently are, in order to distinguish itself from the others. That would be quite the undertaking.

Another advantage that I see for the V5 over the V6 is that it makes easier for the reader to compare players and disciplines with each other. For example, if one wants to see which were the players who achieved it in multiple disciplines, V5 makes it easier to find than scrooling around V6. ABC paulista (talk) 22:41, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Fyunck(click), I like your V6 but I think it would work better if applied for the Calendar and Non-Calendar ones, since these are sequential within one or 2 years. But for the Career Slam it doesn't work as well since the process of achieving it can last multiple years, maybe even a whole career. ABC paulista (talk) 22:56, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

And that's a reasonable objection. I guess the biggest beef is that I like it separated right off the bat by discipline, and I think readers would want that too. Plus the chart we have now at Career Grand Slam has that weird "class" which may only be used in parolympic events. That class should be dumped and replaced with discipline and the discipline above removed. All disciplines should be together and if you then want the names sorted alphabetically by discipline, fine. Perhaps a table for each discipline and you can dump all the sorting. No one wants to compare boys wins with wheelchair wins. Or womens singles with mixed. Readers want to compare doubles with doubles and men's singles with men's singles. But you are correct that what may work for one would be cumbersome for the other. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:58, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

But people do take some interest on who did them in multiple disciplines (that's one of the reasons why the "Boxed Set" is a thing) and I feel that V5 gives the reader more sorting possibilities than V6, making easier to make comparisons than the latter, while making the table shorter since it doesn't repeat names.

One compromise that we could reach is to organize the V5 by class by default, so it would partially acquiesce your wish. I think that such would make the updating process a bit more cumbersome, but still completely doable. ABC paulista (talk) 02:20, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

The problem with "class" is I had never heard of it before and I'm guessing 99.99% of readers haven't either. We use it in no other article I'm aware of. Same with strike rate. The only place I ever see that used is here at Wikipedia. Fyunck(click) (talk) 06:27, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

What would you call it instead of "class"? Because there is no real way to define a column which has: men, women, wheelchair and quad (it doesn't fall under any common category or anything). I would rather leave the column header empty, but that would go against MOS. Qwerty284651 (talk) 10:00, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

Like we've always done it, like the US Open does it, like the Olympics does it. Those are tennis disciplines. I have no idea why we have mixed up men's singles and men's doubles players, into just men. I think with wheelchair tennis they might use class to differentiate between Open and tetraplegic (quad) players. Fyunck(click) (talk) 15:22, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

We mixed up to make the tables smaller and let the readers compare stats across players and disciplines more easily. The main topic of these aren't the players of the disciplines, but the achievement themselves. At the end of the day, there are players that did achieve it in multiple disciplines, and that was the way we found to avoid making a humongous copypaste of a table. ABC paulista (talk) 15:37, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

And that's where we have a big disagreement. The disciplines are intrinsically linked to the achievement as is the player. Without it we compare apples to oranges. It seems like a mess to me and I'm glad no other table was created this way. As a reader myself I find this table almost useless. My usual search would be to find men's doubles Career Grand Slams chronologically through the years. If I submit an article to the press I want to know the last doubles player to achieve this feat. I want to know the first women's singles player to have done it for a class book report. Maybe if instead of a number in S,D,X you had the year completed? I'm not sure how to fix this chart but this could simply be one where we have separate charts for each discipline to make it easiest to navigate for our readers.

The achievement is intrinsically linked to the timeline and the tournaments, not the players and disciplines themselves. Any player can achieve it in any discipline, there's no disctinction in the achievement itself depending on the player or discipline, the only stiputaions are the order of tournaments won and the sequence it followed.

Since the tennis world usually regards singles as more prestigious than doubles, and both more prestigious than mixed, they are counted separatedly and not encompassed together, specifically to avoid this apples-to-oranges comparison, which can happen sometimes like the HoF did with Margareth Court (and she stands alone as the only player in history to win three calendar-year Grand Slams (one in singles, two in mixed doubles).

Overall, the V5 doesn't mix the information itself, it justorganize it differently: Instead of a linear configuration, it works more like a matrix. Actually, it organizes the information even more neatly separated than the ITF used to do, where the gender of the player wasn't considered. ABC paulista (talk) 16:52, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

We are simply not going to agree on this. When you say "Any player can achieve it in any discipline, there's no disctinction in the achievement itself depending on the player or discipline" I will never agree with that. People hit three pointers in basketball too. But we don't lump NBA, WBA, college, little league, etc all together. We separate it out because those are different aspects of the sport. You will not convince me that winning a Career Grand Slam in doubles, singles, or quads, is even close to the same thing. It should be displayed by each discipline to be judged among peers of the same discipline and not mashed together in a blender. If it was chronological, at least we'd have division by time, but by discipline is the best way to handle it. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:20, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

I never said that they were the same thing, even acknowldged that that's the reason that the numbers aren't being summed at the end of the table, but at the end of the day, winning all 4 majors in men's singles is a Grand Slam, winning all 4 majors in mixed doubles is also a Grand Slam, winning all 4 majors in girls' doubles is also a Grand Slam, winning all 4 majors in wheelchair quad singles is also a Grand Slam, etc. Different prestige, same achievement.

But about the table itself, they are not being mashed together, just being put in the same format. Think it like produtcs being put on the same shelf of a supermarket, just because they are on the same place doesn't mean they are being treated as the same product. ABC paulista (talk) 19:44, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

That's not a bad analogy. All the Heinz string bean cans are lumped together, all the DelMonte string beans cans are lumped together separated away from the Heinz cans. Then we have the lima beans away from the string beans in their own section where we can decide which brand of lima beans to buy. And those beans are separated from the pork&beans, and those from the kidney beans. We dont put all of them together in a pile on the shelf just because they come under the heading beans so you have to search for what you want. We separate them and then separate them again so people can find at a glance exactly what they want. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:14, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

Yes, they are all put in their own "cells", one above or below the other in "rows", but all in the same shelf. Just like the table is organized. ABC paulista (talk) 00:14, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Versions continued discussion 3

Since you're so adamant about the presence of the disciplines on their own, I have an idea on how to compromise both our wishes:

Version 7
Player Singles Doubles Wheelchair singles Wheelchair doubles Junior singles Junior doubles Men Women Men Women Mixed Men Women Quad Men Women Quad Boys Girls Boys Girls Alfie Hewett 1 5 Billie Jean King 1 1 Diede de Groot 5 3 Margaret Court 3 2 4 Dylan Alcott 1 1

What's your opinion about it? ABC paulista (talk) 04:11, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

@ABC paulista, the table's way too wide with the full name of the disciplines. You want something compact, abbreviated to minimize horizontal scrolling, which brings us back to version 4. See above. Qwerty284651 (talk) 13:43, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

I prefer V4, but I think that Fyunck(click) doesn't like the labels to be put outside the table (I could be wrong on this assessment, tho), so it comes down to how much he is willing to concede. ABC paulista (talk) 14:44, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

I realize that this particular table is a tough fit no matter the choices. Let me look at V4 and the other versions a bit for this instance. Fyunck(click) (talk) 17:27, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

@Fyunck(click), any update on the versions. Did you find one you like or should we look for other variations/alternatives? Qwerty284651 (talk) 01:59, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

I still think table 6 or 6b works the best. They need to be separated by discipline but we don't need every individual year listed. Fyunck(click) (talk) 22:15, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

I'd mostly agree with V6 (albeit I still stand that a chronological approach works better here) if it were to be applied for the Calendar Slam, but I still stand that it's actually the worst for the Career Slam, because I think that the years matter more ot it than for the "Non-Calendar" or "Calendar" variants, so for the "Career" variant IMO either all the years are shown or none, depending on the WP:SCOPE targetted.

Honestly, I'd even prefer to ditch the tables in favor of just listing the links for the tables dedicated to each discipline than V6, they are better suited to provide this info and are more pertinent to their articles' WP:SCOPE. ABC paulista (talk) 00:30, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

For me V6 works better than V6b because it's better to have 1 big table than 13 smaller ones (1 for each discipline:main, jr and wc).

Looking at the latest 2 comments this all boils down to 2 options: 1. chronological or 2. by discipline.

We can always go with the same format like every other table. Don't worry about the size though. That can easily resolved afterwards when all has been said and done. Qwerty284651 (talk) 01:15, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Then we can go with my original idea, which was to create that giant table, combining all the tables in each discipline's lists into one, like you did during the process of implementing V5. But I still insist in about the chronological sorting as default, it's the way to be different from the discipline-dedicated tables while also following the same format used for the other tables in this section. ABC paulista (talk) 02:47, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

I do want it chronological, but first by discipline. Fyunck(click) (talk) 03:57, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

I'm talking about how the Calendar and Non-Calendar Slam tables currently are organized, I can compromise on a Career Slam full table if it follows the same way as these are sorted. And these aren't sorted by discipline by default. ABC paulista (talk) 13:43, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

I am working on the full table being sorted in initial chronological ascending order by year of career slam completion, which can then be sorted with a click of a sorting arrow/button by discipline. Kingly welcome to assist in my sandbox. Also, the juniors and the no.1 column are missing from the list. I pulled this version from an old revision. Qwerty284651 (talk) 13:47, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

I can do the sorting process, so you can focus on formatting and coding the table itself. Is that fine for you? ABC paulista (talk) 17:15, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Can you add the 2 junior instances as well? I can do the colors and formatting afterwards. Qwerty284651 (talk) 17:21, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Of course, I'll try to have it all done before the end of the weekend. ABC paulista (talk) 17:44, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Okay, so the table's almost done. I am trying to figure out the spacing between the slam links and sorting arrows to avoid misclicking on the link when clicking an arrow in the first row. Which of the 4 options best minimizes the risk of accidentally clicking a link instead of a sorting arrow? Qwerty284651 (talk) 01:37, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Honestly, overall it seems me that the links below the arrows present more misclicking potential than the slam ones. It appears that the links below are closer to the arrows than all of the above ones are. ABC paulista (talk) 02:51, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

You can click on any part of a cell with a sorting arrow to sort not just the arrow. The ones with the slam links are a bit obstructed as you have less space to click, because of the links.

Should we add an empty row below the 1st row? Qwerty284651 (talk) 02:55, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

I don't think so, the header has lots of clicking space so it shoudn't be an issue. Maybe follow the "WIM" alignment, just to be safe. ABC paulista (talk) 16:26, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

The sorting doesn't work. The two most important disciplines, womens or men's singles, get buried no matter how many times i click on discipline. And the individual event headers are not straight across. That looks weird. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:10, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

The sorting can be fixed with "data-sort-value". You want what the tables in the Grand Slam subsection can do. Note:those are the only 2 tables in the last section that sort the disciplines properly by importance/recognizeability, the rest are sorted alphabetically.

See my comment above👆 the posted table about the arrows and the follow-up discussion. We are testing out heights: . I am trying to figure out the spacing between the slam links and sorting arrows to avoid misclicking on the link when clicking an arrow in the first row. Which of the 4 options best minimizes the risk of accidentally clicking a link instead of a sorting arrow? Qwerty284651 (talk) 18:58, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

It never occurred to me that link distance was a problem. USO is way more than enough room. If you are worried about that then why aren't you worried about the distance between the discipline sorting and mixed doubles? That distance is way more likely to make a mistake. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:55, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

How about one of these versions regarding the sorting arrow distance? Qwerty284651 (talk) 20:15, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

I might not be the best at determining this distance. I rarely use my phone for any detailed search info on wikipedia. I like to see the whole thing when I'm looking at data or doing some research for writing an article. With a phone and it's small screen sometimes I'm lucky to see one or two cells of a table rather than a whole table. Fyunck(click) (talk) 20:26, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

How about this version? Qwerty284651 (talk) 20:36, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Something looks bizarre with two No. columns. And I've never seen a number column go from two 7's and then to 8. It would go to 9. But I'm not even sure why we have one number column let alone two. Fyunck(click) (talk) 21:38, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

That was the issue I was facing, because the first 2 tables (Grand Slam and Non-calendar-year Grand Slam) in Grand Slam, Year-End Championship and Olympics, don't go to 9 after a rowspan=2|7 but to 8 and, of course, the "Career Grand Slam" table. The rest of the tables in the section count rows normally. So I wasn't sure, whether we want them counted/listed 8 or 9 after a rowspan=2|7, for example. Glad to have figured that out. Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:44, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

It depends on what you're actually trying to count. If you're counting players, then the first nº makes more sense, but if you're counting instances, than the second one makes more sense. ABC paulista (talk) 22:54, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

So, what do you reckon? Are we counting instances or players? To me, a team completing a CGS counts as 2 instances, even though they completed the feat together. Whichever we decide on I would implement that for the rest of the section as well, so it is unified. Qwerty284651 (talk) 23:03, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Either way is fine by me, we can go with which one is the easier to code, format and mantain. ABC paulista (talk) 00:02, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

On a second thought, looking at the description of each subsection it says in prose A player who wins all four majors...is said to have achieved a "XYZ Grand Slam". Because it states "player", we can count it by how many players instead of instances to keep it in line with the description. Qwerty284651 (talk) 23:12, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

IMO, the blank row is the worst one visually, and doesn't adress very well the issue with potential conflicts with the links below. For now, I think that the arrows being at the side of the the header (Without sort under) is the best one. ABC paulista (talk) 22:50, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Without sort under, having the arrows in same line with the col headers makes the table wider. The goal is to minimize the table's width. See other tables on the page. Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:58, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

There's that too. Is there any way to move up the arrows in order to distance them a little from the rows? ABC paulista (talk) 00:04, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

With style=padding-bottom=:Xem you can. See Template talk:Sort under#Regulating the arrow height. Qwerty284651 (talk) 00:11, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

What I mean is making them more centralized within their respective cells, farther from the bottom limit, while the text stays above the arrow on the upper limit. ABC paulista (talk) 00:19, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

No, once centered the arrows stay to the bottom. You can click anywhere in a cell with an arrow to sort the column. You don't have to click ON the arrow itself to sort a column, you know. I asked on the template's talk page if the arrow can be centered vertically as well not just horizontally.

Best I can do is

IMO we're ready to go. ABC paulista (talk) 21:43, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

If Fyunck has nothing to add, then by all means update the CGS table. Qwerty284651 (talk) 15:26, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

Of those v2 is the best. Why would we allow sorting of the dates? There is little to no reason to do so. And I still don't think we need all four dates... just the date of completion. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:12, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

Well, we can disable sorting for the majors, but why would you leave only the year of completion? I thought we opted for this version out of the all tried above, which was ABC's original idea, to match the design of the other tables in the section, i.e. the style of the section. Unless, I missed something. Qwerty284651 (talk) 22:03, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

I have said it since the beginning and i think ABC also said it, why do we need all four dates? It's why I created version 6 and 6b above. Way simpler, allows for less name usage since you can do 3x, and a less wide table. You even thought "Year of completion" was fine. It's why I still thing something like 6b (apart or together works well. Separated by discipline, which everyone expects, and a simple list of those that accomplished it. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:31, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

Fyunck(click) I said that IMO we don't need the torunament's links for the "Calendar Slam" table, since mentioning the year it was achieved already tells the reader the editions of each tournament that each respective player won, meanwhile telling the player when they completed the Career Slam doesn't tell the reader when the they won the other 3 slams, so I think that mentioning the years for these are more useful than for the former.

About the sorting the dates, one can simply counterargue with a "why not?". You may think that there's no point to such, still there's no harm either. Sorting exist to improve readability by giving more options to the reader to gather information or data without resorting to WP:LISTCRUFT, so I usually don't take issue with sorting that doesn't break the table's layout. ABC paulista (talk) 00:56, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

I misunderstood your stance on listing all the dates... sorry. As for sorting, I think there is harm in over-sorting as it takes up more room. You sort when a list is long and you have items that need sorting... those dates have no reason to be sorted... it's more like "why" not "why not." It's like editors that get sloppy and sort the score column. I'm always having to remove that sorting. If there's a good reason for sorting of course we use it, otherwise it is not supposed to be there. There's not a lot I can do if you two like a table that I don't, but we have to be careful in important articles to the project. What you put on Grand Slam records is less important than what you put on Grand Slam (tennis). That really needs the project ok with a finished choice or two. If you are planning to use the same table on both articles then it should be a wikiproject tennis decision. It may still wind up 2 to 1 with the amount of participation I see these days at the project, and i have no problem with that at all if that's the way it goes. But I would present my choice also and see how it goes. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:03, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Just because you don't see the use for a sorting, doesn't mean that it actually doesn't have any at all. I myself can find some interesting insights when sorting them in some ways, but even if that wasn't the case I woudn't just outright dismiss this possibility, so whenever it's possibile to alter the info's context when sorting the table, I'm always in favor of sorting.

Also, Qwerty284651 can tell if I'm wrong, but AFAIK the increase in size in both spacial and data storage arisen from making a table sortable is negligible, and actually making columns unsortable within it further increases its data size.

If you want to present your own ideas, go for it because this is the space for such, but bear in mind that I'm not willing to agree on tables that either are divided by discipline, or do a half-job at presenting the information (looking at V3 and V6).

Also I feel like it's high time we decide on a definitive solution because this duscussion has been going on for a long time, and we already made 2 full tables in the meantime, both also taking a lot of time and effort to be made just to be dismissed, so I think we should land on a final decision before working on its implementation. If you prefer V2 of all those, fine by me as long that's the true final consensus, no going back, no more wasted effort.

About the table's usage, I never intended to show it in any other article but here, transcluding to the Grand Slam article never crossed my mind. And if someone were to suggest such, I'd argue against it just like I argued against the transclusions of both the Calendar and Non-Calendar tables there. ABC paulista (talk) 01:36, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

@Fyunck(click):, I wouldn't put the Career Grand Slam, i.e. transclude it, to the Grand Slam (tennis) article. Just the Calendar and Non-calendar year ones, that was already decided/agreed on in the discussion on the aforementioned page's talk page. Besides the table's way too long. Even if it were collapsed I still wouldn't put it elsewhere but on this page. Qwerty284651 (talk) 03:27, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Continued discussion 5

Interesting that ABC paulista is not willing to agree on tables that are "divided by discipline", while for me it's very important we separate it for our readers. My own ideas I have given multiple times... I'm guessing they were just dismissed by ABC paulista. Some of these changes are pretty massive so you should present them to the project and see if the efforts were wasted. As for sorting I'm in the opposite camp on that. If there can be shown a need we use it... if not or it's frivolous, we don't. If you two want each and every date of a career slam, I can live with that even if I think it's not needed. But I will always feel it should be divided by discipline (that goes for all the charts), and the sorting on the individual tournaments dates is absolutely ridiculous. As for trancluding it to the Grand Slam article I agree we should not. Plus that has already created a problem with the over population of sourcing on the one table that's now in both places. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:09, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Btw, @Fyunck(click), I have an updated version in my sandbox of the entire section with all charts INITIALLY sorted chronologically, but when you sort by discipline afterwards they all sort properly by listijg men's and women's singles first, then doubles, mixed, etc. If we had the tables sorted in initial discipline order, then it's impossible to sort them chronologically across 4 different columns for all 4 majors.

I can live with sorting being disabled for the majors.

As for the 2 charts being present on both pages, I only transcluded them because others wanted in the other discussion, but we can always revert that. Qwerty284651 (talk) 12:24, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Fyunck, adding to the issue that Querty presented about the technical aspect regard the ordering, there's also the issue that pretty much all the other tables on the subject are already sorted by discipline, or contains info solely about a specific discipline, so making another table sorted the same way would be redundant, just a cheap copypaste of them that would bring nothing new to the table, no new insight, no new perspective, etc. I think that our efforts should also strive to give the reader options, give the most amount of information using less space possible, we should broaden horizons instead of narrow visions or dictate how the information should be presented while negating, dismissing other possibilites, other perspectives. The tables I envisioned would provide insights that the other ones were unable to because of their narrower scopes, and I think that's beneficial to not repeat the same thing over, and over, and over ad eternum.

And the sorting is part of such, because what you deem as "frivolous" might not be for others. The reader's demographics is broad and people can be looking for all kinds of information or stats, so why should we shut this possibility? It can't be considered as trivia because its totally contained within a notable info, it doesn't harm either the article or the list itself, it doesn't affect readability or disrupt the content itself, and doesn't take additional space. At best it's useful and at worst it's harmless, so again: Why not?

About the dates themselves, note that the initial ideas were to not cite them because I was looking for more streamlined versions as I was concerned about the size of the full table (that ended up being materialized as V8). I tried to accomodate your demands to separate the disciplines as best as I could while trying to make them bring something new, but we don't seem to agree on them, so I tried V8 as the fullest option that neatly separes every aspect, but since that also didn't lead to a consensus, now I don't know how to proceed since I feel like I conceded all I could and tried my best to reach a compromise.

And I don't think that's necessary to bring it up to the project because it's a simple table about a piece of information that was missing from the article, since the additions Querty made some months ago led it to be the only one not referred here. I just feel like that the wasted effort was in part because the objections that could have been made during the process of their creation, especially since their progress was fully documented in this talk page, and that could have halted their further progression, were made after the tables were already done. ABC paulista (talk) 01:32, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

There's no harm in sorting in by year, i.e. year of completion.

Don't worry about the size, ABC. My plan was to call for an article split when this discussion will be done. We move the entire last section List of Grand Slam and related tennis records#Grand Slam, Year-End Championship and Olympics to a namesake page Grand Slam, Year-End Championship and Olympics (or List of <something slam completion related>) or a subpage and then transclude the entire section to its place retaining the page's look but cutting its size in half, for e.g.

By V2, I think Fyunck meant the arrow distance versions not the V2 versions. Apologize on my end for naming them the same as the table's versions. And agree about taking way too much time for a table. Hours and hours go into it, making sure every sorting, alignment, flagg|uxx (for WPPEIS), bg color, event links and everything in between is done properly. I am not putting my time into another one. Not for a while.

Well, ABC, we had to meet somewhere in the middle with othe people who insisted on having the tables in the Grand Slam article. Luckily, a couple of transclusions barely affected that page's size. Qwerty284651 (talk) 03:14, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Fair, such move would allow for the expansion of the section to include other slam combinations. About the transclusions, I'd rather not mess with them for a while, that whole discussion was long and tiring as that was, so I prefer to leave it as it is currently. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ABC paulista (talk • contribs) 03:47, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

I wouldn't add additional sections to the article after the move. This page has a lot of information and statistics on grand slams as it is. A page that ranks in the top 3500 by longest pages by size on Wiki, which is a lot. The slam combinations are already located in their respective discipline pages (main and wheelchair) and I would like to keep them their not add them here as well as additional balast. You want to keep this page's size low. Adding sections after the move would undo the whole purpose of the move — that is to reduce the page's size not increase it. But that is a discussion for another time. Qwerty284651 (talk) 17:20, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

I was talking about the new page created, not this one. ABC paulista (talk) 17:26, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification. Qwerty284651 (talk) 17:34, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
