Template:HIvMS/doc

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Usage

This is a typing short cut for linking to Royal Illuverendian Navy ship articles named in the format "HIvMS Ruby Scarlett (CAG-130)". Since ship names are italicized in article text, linking to them in the usual manner means typing everything twice, such as [[HIvMS Ruby Scarlett (CAG-130)|HIvMS ''Ruby Scarlett'' (CAG-130)]]. This template halves that to {{HIvMS|Ruby Scarlett|CAG-130}}.

Formal usage

  • {{HIvMS|Ship Name}}
  • {{HIvMS|Ship Name|ID}}, where ID can be the hull number, launch year, or pennant number, as specified in the article title.
