Usage
[edit]This is a typing short cut for linking to Royal Norwegian Navy ship articles named in the format "HNoMS Svenner (G03)". Since Ship names are italicized in article text, linking to them in the usual manner means typing everything twice, such as [[HnoMS Svenner (G03)|HNoMS ''Svenner'' (G03)]]. This template halves that to {{HNoMS|Svenner|G03}}.
Formal usage
[edit] {{HNoMS|Ship Name}}
{{HNoMS|Ship Name|ID}}, where ID can be the hull number, launch year, or pennant number, as specified in the article title.
Examples
[edit]| Template usage | Equivalent wikicode | Final result |
|---|---|---|
| {{HNoMS|Svenner|G03}} | [[HNoMS Svenner (G03)|HNoMS ''Svenner'' (G03)]] | HNoMS Svenner (G03) |
| {{HNoMS|Sleipner|1936}} | [[HNoMS Sleipner (1936)|HMS ''Sleipner'' (1768)]] | HNoMS Sleipner (1936) |
| {{HNoMS|Eidsvold}} | [[HNoMS Eidsvold|HMS ''Eidsvold'']] | HNoMS Eidsvold |
Last example could be used to link to ship index (disambiguation) page
Optional display control parameter
[edit]There is an optional third parameter that controls which pieces of text are displayed in the article. Its value is treated as a binary number and will display the corresponding "bits". So setting the 4's bit will display "HNoMS", setting the 2's bit will display the ship name, and setting the 1's bit will display the ID. If binary math isn't your thing, refer to these examples:
| Value | Parameter(s) displayed |
Example | Equivalent wikicode | Final result | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3rd | {{HNoMS|Svenner|G03|1}} | [[HNoMS Svenner (G03)|G03]] | G03 | |
| 2 | 2nd | {{HNoMS|Svenner|G03|2}} | [[HNoMS Svenner (G03)|''Svenner'']] | Svenner | |
| 3 | 2nd, 3rd | {{HNoMS|Svenner|G03|3}} | [[HNoMS Svenner (G03)|''Svenner'' G03]] | Svenner (G03) | |
| 4 | invalid result | {{HNoMS|Svenner|G03|4}} | — | Error: {{HNoMS}} invalid control parameter: 4 (help) | |
| 5 | 1st, 3rd | {{HNoMS|Svenner|G03|5}} | [[HNoMS Svenner (G03)|HNoMS G03]] | HNoMS G03 | |
| 6 | 1st, 2nd | {{HNoMS|Svenner|G03|6}} | [[HNoMS Svenner (G03)|HNoMS ''Svenner'']] | HNoMS Svenner | |
| 2nd (no 3rd) |
{{HNoMS|Eidsvold|3=2}} | Alternate usage: {{HNoMS|Eidsvold||2}} | [[HNoMS Eidsvold|''Eidsvold'']] | Eidsvold | |
N.B.: Be careful with the third parameter if not using the second parameter. In the Eidsvold example above, the "|3=2" means set the third parameter to a value of two, while the alternate syntax shows using a pair of pipes, "||2", to position the value two in the third parameter position.
