Usage
[edit]Use this template to link to "ABA season" articles from a particular year. The first parameter is the starting year of the season. By default, the template displays text in the form "yyyy–yy": "A closing CE/AD year is normally written with two digits (1881–86) unless it is in a different century from that of the opening year (1881–1986)" (as of April 2009).
A second parameter may be used if only one year is to be displayed (does not work if nolink is passed in).
{{abay|...}} is the other name of this template.
Named parameters
[edit]- app
- Text to be appended after the year, with a space in between.
For the parameters below, passing in any non-empty text will produce the same result, so as a matter of style, only pass in "y" (without quotes).
- nolink
- Text must not be linked.
