SMW Support
Sad news, I gonna remove the SMW support of the prizepool template. I failed last time implementing a somewhat compatible version, but it makes no sense to me at that point. Reasoning below:


 * Hieracy/consistency problems: Template:Tournament infobox is and should be the top level element of the page. It is currently pulling information from this template, which makes it an outlier.
 * Confusion: It's very hard to intuitively distinguish when the parameters "prizepool" and "total" in the tournament infobox and how they are properly used. (Yes I know, not the best reason)
 * Wrapper support: If there was a wrapper, the SMW properties would have an actual valid reason to exist. The properties are not at all outside of the same page; there is no page that compares prize pools or comparable stats.
 * Low benefit: The whole purpose is to reduce the ease of keeping the final prize pool value up-to-date. Imo the values should only be updated TWICE in total. Once after the tournament is announced (e.g. $200.000+ USD) and the second time after the tournament finished (e.g. §224.322 USD).

Affects:
 * Property:Currencycode
 * Property:Total
 * Property:Currencysign
 * Template:Prizepool
 * Template:Tournament infobox
 * Template:Tournament infobox wrapper

 * Edit: There is no Tournament infobox wrapper yet, shame on me. Molldust (talk) 10:47, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
