G2G: Connect-a-Thon sticker improvement request

The {{Connect-a-Thon | team=[team name] | year=[yyyy] | profiles=[nnn]}} sticker, in its present form, doesn't support our current practice of holding more than one Connect-a-Thon each year. Could it be modified to support the specification of a month and year?

I believe the "year" parameter doesn't have to be just a year. For example, according to https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Mighty_Oaks#Connect-A-Thon_2022, it was possible to enter "|year= April 2022" or "|year= January 2022" for the ones last year, so I assume the same will apply this year.

Yeah, my team page uses the example of {{Connect-a-Thon|team=The Toddlin' Tortoises|year=July 2022|profiles=27}}


I should have looked this up: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:Connect-a-Thon confirms that a month+year is accepted.
