[edit] Infobox style

WP:DASH makes it clear that a dash can be used when you would otherwise say "to", so I'm putting one in instead of "to". It also helps to keep the range on one line, and helps it conform to every other coaching infobox on Wikipedia.

I really don't want to get into an edit war over a stupid piece of punctuation. Let's please have this end here? --fuzzy510 05:15, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Could you quote the section that allows the use of a dash here? I can see nothing remotely relevant. Normal English punctuation rules, however, rule out use of a dash in this sort of case.

Note also that the dash doesn't keep the range on one line as I see it; that seems to be a function of your browser/preferences/other settings, and shouldn't override correct syntax. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:51, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
