How to do more esoteric brackets

Hello! I notice you're the maintainer of Module:Build bracket, so I've got two questions regarding a couple of brackets I've been trying to work on, and whether it would be possible to add it as functionality?

1. At Continental Classic (2023), one match in the semi-finals had three wrestlers, whilst the other had two. At Wrestle Dynasty, three promotions are running one four-woman match to determine their entrant, but AEW is running a four-woman bracket. Is it possible to add some sort of {{{1}}}} field, or how could I otherwise represent that in the article?
2. At Continental Classic (2023), {{4TeamBracket}} is being used because it allows for row shading; could that be added too?

Thanks, Sceptre (talk) 13:37, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

Hey, just an update; it appears that we've found a way to do the first one without any degenerate performance, but the second one would still be a nice addition. :) Sceptre (talk) 18:03, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

reverted edit

Hello Pbrks, i noticed you reverted the edit i made on Saebyeolbe's wikipedia page, and your reason was "unsourced changes", can i get your reasoning for the revert? it has been confirmed that his birth date is 23 December 1995 (as seen in his twitter page and in a command from his twitch nightbot) and is used on other wikis that are dedicated to esports, besides, i dont think birth dates need sources for modern people, most pages dont even have a source for them, so i ask you to revert the changes, thank you for your time!

@Cock0207: I reverted your edit because you did not provide a source. References are necessary for any addition or change to content on any article -- especially for people who are alive (see Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons). We need a source for any personal information on a living person, including birth dates (see WP:DOB). I found a Korean article that lists his birthday, so I added a reference for it. Lots of people edit Wikipedia, and its not surprising to find unreferenced information. If you see articles that do not have a source the personal information of a living person, it should either be removed or a reliable source should be found. If you have any other questions, let me know. Welcome to Wikipedia, and happy editing! – Pbrks ^(t·c) 14:53, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

i see, i didn't put any sources for the birth date because of the 4th point in WP:BLPSELFPUB, as there was no doubt about the date being wrong. in any case, thank you for your help and have a good day! Cock0207 (talk) 07:19, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

@Cock0207: Self-published sources would be fine, but you added the date of birth without any source at all. – Pbrks ^(t·c) 17:39, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

Was curious if you would add Super’s world’s greatest gamer standings on his Wikipedia page? 2601:18E:C702:F0:D5:136D:4A1A:F955 (talk) 06:52, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
