Legitimate alternative names that are officially used. For example, a legitimate alternate name for the loop jump is the Rittberger jump.
scoring abbrev
The scoring abbreviation that appears on the protocols under the ISU Judging System.
element type
The type of element. For example, use:
[[Figure skating jumps|Jump]] for a jump
[[Figure skating spins|Spin]] for a spin
edges
If an element is defined by being performed on one or more specific edges, list them.
take off edge
The take-off edge for jump.
landing edge
The landing edge for the jump. Although this may seem redundant, don't assume the reader knows the landing edge.
inventor
The inventor of the element. Do not use if there is any doubt about who is credited for inventing it. If this is a case of inventing vs. popularizing, use the following parameter instead. If the element is named for the inventor, use only this parameter.
named for
Who the element is named for. If the element is named for the inventor, use only the inventor parameter.
disciplines
The discipline(s) that the element is used in. Use this only if the element is in one or two disciplines, not all of them. For example, the death spiral is a pair skating element, and a lift is a pair skating and ice dancing element.
