nydra giving green light for the idea: https://discord.com/channels/93055209017729024/1445750345442656409/1468152236067786855

As per discussions on discord:

  • if |matchticker=true is enabled in HDB it will (try to) display a matchticker
  • it only queries from current page and not from parent

How did you test this change?

(placement of the matchticker obviously depends on the placement of HDB on the page)
the broken countdown is unrelated to this PR (seems to only be broken on that particular wiki ...)

Open Question:

do we want to allow input so that the matchticker can query form several tournaments?
(something like |matchTickerTournamentX=)
usage would be e.g. on https://liquipedia.net/geoguessr/GeoGuessr_World_Championship/2026/World_League/APAC where they display the matches of several subpages, but the page itself is a supgae of the tournament page too

IMO not worth the effort. That page could just as well be a redirect, it does not display anything in addition to the transclusion/showbracket.

tend to agree, just wanting to give nydra the option (since it is not hard to implement)
