Template:BNS

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

This is a typing short cut for linking to Bangladesh Navy ship articles named in the format "BNS Bangabandhu (M-83)". Since ship names are italicized in article text, linking to them in the usual manner means typing everything twice, such as [[BNS Bangabandhu (M-83)|BNS ''Bangabandhu'' (M-83)]]. This template halves that to {{BNS|Bangabandhu|M-83}}.

Formal usage

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

Examples

Template usage	Equivalent wikicode	Final result
`{{BNS\|Bangabandhu\|M 83}}`	`[[BNS Bangabandhu (M 83)\|BNS ''Bangabandhu'' (M 83)]]`	BNS Bangabandhu (M 83)
`{{BNS\|Bangabandhu}}`	`[[BNS Bangabandhu\|BNS ''Bangabandhu'']]`	BNS Bangabandhu

Last example could be used to link to ship index (disambiguation) page
