New page

{{tl|Module rating |}}

== Usage ==

<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|''function_name''}}</code>

The template {{t1|PDC Rankings}} is meant to be used on the infoboxes of each player, which automatically updates their OoM ranking when this page is updated. The name typed in the first argument (eg <code><nowiki> {{PDC Rankings|Michael van Gerwen}}</nowiki></code> ) should match the spelling - including lack of accent marks - with the PDC website. New players should be added at [[Module:DartsRankings/data/PDC Players]] with the appropriate naming conventions.

== Updating ==
The main template page is '''not meant''' to be updated. The rankings should be updated at [[Module:DartsRankings/data/PDC Rankings]].

To update the rankings:
# Adjust the day and month (along with the year if necessary) of the '''current rankings'''.
# Adjust the day and month (along with the year if necessary) of the '''previous rankings''' (the old current date).
# Copy and paste the rankings from "data.rankings" to "rankingsOld" section (the lower one).
# Paste in the new rankings data to the "data.rankings" section (upper one).

===Generating rankings code===
All positions can be quickly updated using a spreadsheet. For example, after copying the entire ranking list from [https://www.pdc.tv/order-of-merit/pdc-order-merit], the following formula can be used in an external spreadsheet to generate the code necessary to update the data page (given the rankings begin in cell A1):

<pre>= "{ """&B1&""" , "&A1&" , """&C1&""" }," </pre>

Then you can copy & past all 128+ rows into the rankings module.
