:: To your questions I would have to answer 1) Yes and 2) Probably. If nothing else, previous revisions of this very article contain exactly the information that is in the chart. If the current league table is sourced, then so is all of this data. That doesn't mean I'm in favor of its inclusion, since I think it does clutter things up a bit. If consensus is made to keep it though, might I suggest replacing the gold/silver/bronze colors with ones that match the regular league table? That might help integrate it into the article.

77 Serie A Seasons

Although 2008-09 will be considered the 77th Serie A season, there are 79 Serie A seasons listed on the template. I think the 1944 season should be moved up to the Italian Football Championships seasons section or omitted completely, but which is the second extra season that we are counting?

I am thinking it might be 1945-46. If it is, I think it should be moved too. That way we have 77 seasons listed which matches the official number of Serie A seasons played (counting 2008-09). I'm not going to touch the template as I would probably destroy it.Juve2000 (talk) 23:06, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalisation

Maybe the Table leaders by matchday section is senseless,but vandalisation? I didn't want to vandalise,if I get blamed for vandalisation,then someone may block me for something which isn't my intention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.68.138.135 (talk) 19:21, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The summary was "vandalism + senseless WP:TRIVIA content", and it's about two different edits; the first one being this (the vandalism one), and the second one being yours (the WP:TRIVIA content). I hope I've been clarified your doubts. --Angelo (talk) 19:47, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes,thank you,maybe I'm overreacting a bit,but: phew,what a relief. User: 81.68.138.135 22:26, 14 September 2008

Positions by round

I am impressed by the new chart created by Lordoffireanddeath26. Before someone arbitrarily deletes it because it hasn't been thouroughly discussed or for some other reason, could you please state your objections here. Juve2000 (talk) 17:51, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is a discussion over this issue at the project page as well. It can be found here. More input would be welcome, as there currently is no concensus reached, if I'm correct.
Those RbR tables have two major issues: 1) Can they be properly sourced? 2) Do they violate WP:NOT#Stats? My opinion: 1) No and 2) Yes. Details can be found on the discussion page linked above. Cheers, Hockey-holic (talk) 18:16, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
