In that case it's probably okay

Are you referring to the National Tournament team numbers? If so, those aren't finalized until after the deadline for state directors to submit final registration numbers to soinc, which last year was early March (I don't know this year's exact deadline, but I assume it's similar).

Why do none of the infoboxes float right on their pages anymore? I checked the code of a few of them and they say ( align="right" ), but on my screen they always take up the top left of the page, and the page text does not wrap around them.

I was wondering the same thing myself, and I agree that it looked much better when they actually aligned right and wrapped around the text, instead of sitting obtrusively in the upper left of the page.

The change happened when we updated our wiki software. I've always been meaning to get around to fixing that but I never had time.

Guess who finally had free time tonight?

I've also condensed the table down a bit, but there might need to be a little bit of adjusting left on some pages. (The pages, not the template- i.e., the placement of the template in relation to the text is too far down the page)

Also, a general message for everyone: please don't remove the maintenance templates yourself. (See first post in this topic)
