After looking at the mess that is the bottom of the Kelly Clarkson article, anyone else think it would be a good idea to merge the Idol winners template into this one, but leave the winner's template separate?

For example:

<div style="text-align: center; clear:both; margin: 1.5em 0em"> {| id="toc" style="margin: auto; line-height: 1.5; font-size: 90%; text-align: left;" |- | colspan="2" style="background:#ccccff;" align="center" | '''[[American Idol]] [[American Idol (Season 1)|Season 1]]''' |- |style="padding:0px 5px"; align="center"| [[Kelly Clarkson]] | [[Justin Guarini]] | [[Nikki McKibbin]] | [[Tamyra Gray]] | [[RJ Helton]]<br />[[Christina Christian]] | [[Ryan Starr]] | [[A. J. Gil]] | [[Jim Verraros]] | [[EJay Day]] |} </div>

...would give:

...and allow the article to look tidier whilst allowing just one template to be used.
