Template documentationUsage
This is a basic template to allows for linking ships of the world using three parameters: Prefix, Name, and ID.
- Prefix: This is the designation of the ship in an acronym. For example:
- United Kingdom has the prefixes HMS (His Majesty's Ship), HMT (His Majesty's Trawler), RFA (Royal Fleet Auxilliary).
- Germany has the prefixes SMS (Seiner Majestät Schiff – His Majesty's Ship), SMU (Seiner Majestät Unterseeboot – His Majesty's Submarine).
- There are also prefixes such SS (Steamship), PS (Paddle steamer), SB (Sailing barge), MS (Motor ship), and RMS (Royal Mail Ship) amongst others.
- Name: The name of the ship at launch. Note that some ships were interned and then repurposed with new names.
- ID: Used primarily to identify which version a particular ship is. This can be the hull number, pennant number, or launch year. In many cases the latter is used the most.
Examples
{{Ship|HMS|Carmania|1905}}will produce RMS Carmania (1905){{Ship|SMS|Cap Trafalgar|1913}}will produce SMS Cap Trafalgar (1913)
Ultimately, the options are endless with the various ships prefixes and IDs.
The above documentation is transcluded from Template:Ship/doc.
