This is a typing short cut for linking to Canadian Coast Guard ship articles named in the format "CCGS Sir John Franklin (2017)". Since ship names are italicized in article text, linking to them in the usual manner means typing everything twice, such as [[CCGS Sir John Franklin (2017)|CCGS ''Sir John Franklin'' (2017)]]. This template halves that to {{CCGS|Sir John Franklin|2017}}.
