ChangesEdit
I think the character should be put right next to the player name, and the Previous Rank and Change should have an option to be omitted if there's nothing there. Awesome Cardinal 2000 11:49, 11 November 2013 (EST)
- If previous rank isn't applicable, there should probably be a way to leave it out. Scr7

- The parameter order was set so that the input of most variable length (character) would be at the end, so that spacing could be used to fake the appearance of a table in the text window for easier editing. The problem is MediaWiki doesn't seem to be able to recognize the difference between "blank" and "not given" if the parameters are unnamed; hence using a dash instead of a blank for previous rank had to be done. So, in order to be able to either input a blank or input nothing for previous rank, we'd have to either name the parameters (can be done, would ruin current usages) or put previous rank at the end (more difficult to see when editing).

This template should also be changed so that when "Not ranked" is typed for previous rank, the change column displays as "N/A". Awesome Cardinal 2000 16:27, 12 November 2013 (EST)
- Is it not intuitive that a dash indicates "not ranked"? Toomai Glittershine The Different 16:53, 12 November 2013 (EST)
CountryEdit
Currently, the template doesn't support country information. Not sure if it's going to be used on any more pages than the European Melee Power Rankings, though. Doesn't even have to be countries, could just be regions in general, even. – Smiddle 03:18, 14 October 2015 (EDT)
BrokenEdit
This template is broken (won't show players' names). I don't know how to fix it, but I figure I should probably put something here? kenniky

Homonymous playersEdit
How does this template handle homonymous players? I just ran in this issue when updating the Italian Power Rankings page, since the new season has a ranked player named Kuro, which is obviously not the PGR one.--Rdrfc (talk) 06:48, January 28, 2020 (EST)
