Usage
Basically, the template takes up to three parameters to write the target page, and to format the label shown. General setup is:
[[targetpage|label]]
[[HMS Illustrious (R06)|HMS Illustrious (R06)]]
.
Target page
By default, the wikilink is build like this:
{{PREFIX|ship's name|ID}}
.
- With
{{HMS|Illustrious|R06}}
, the targetpage is [[HMS Illustrious (R06)]]
.- Elements PREFIX and ID can be omitted (if they are not part of the targetpage title).
Formatted label
- Then the template by default adds the formatted label:
[[targetpage|label]]
→{{HMS|Illustrious|R06}}
→[[HMS Illustrious (R06)|HMS ''Illustrious'' (R06)]]
, showing as:- HMS Illustrious (R06).
The default label can be changed with a simple parameter. The extra third position, unnamed parameter allows setting which changes the elements of the ship's full name. It sets the label in the link:
For example, in your article, the hull number (disambiguator) may not be needed to show. In that case, add option |2
, and the result is:
{{HMS|Illustrious|R06|2}}
→
[[HMS Illustrious (R06)|''Illustrious'']]
→- Illustrious
The options are:
Value | Will show | Example | Wikilink [[targetpage|label]] | Shows |
---|---|---|---|---|
(default) | PREFIX name (ID) | {{HMS|Illustrious|R06}} | [[HMS Illustrious (R06)|HMS ''Illustrious'' (R06)]] | HMS Illustrious (R06) |
1 | ID | {{HMS|Illustrious|R06|1}} | [[HMS Illustrious (R06)|R06]] | R06 |
2 | name | {{HMS|Illustrious|R06|2}} | [[HMS Illustrious (R06)|''Illustrious'']] | Illustrious |
3 | name (ID) | {{HMS|Illustrious|R06|3}} | [[HMS Illustrious (R06)|''Illustrious'' (R06)]] | Illustrious (R06) |
4 | invalid | {{HMS|Illustrious|R06|4}} | — | Error: {{HMS}} invalid control parameter: 4 (help) |
5 | PREFIX ID | {{HMS|Illustrious|R06|5}} | [[HMS Illustrious (R06)|HMS ''R06'']] | HMS R06 |
6 | PREFIX name | {{HMS|Illustrious|R06|6}} | [[HMS Illustrious (R06)|HMS ''Illustrious'']] | HMS Illustrious |
- Note: options default (=blank), 2 and 6 are mostly used.
