 | ഇത് ഫലകം:USS എന്ന ഫലകത്തിന്റെ വിവരണ-ഉപതാൾ ആണ് (ഫലകത്തിനായി ആ താൾ കാണുക). ഇതിൽ യഥാർത്ഥ ഫലകം ഉപയോഗിക്കേണ്ട രീതി, വർഗ്ഗങ്ങൾ, ബഹുഭാഷാകണ്ണികൾ തുടങ്ങിയ ഫലകത്തിന്റെ ഭാഗമല്ലാത്ത കാര്യങ്ങളാണ് ഉള്ളത്.. |
Usage
[തിരുത്തുക]This is a typing short cut for linking to US Navy ship articles named in the format "USS Deep Six (AWOL-99)". Since Ship names are italicized in article text, linking to them in the usual manner means typing everything twice, such as [[USS Deep Six (AWOL-99)|USS ''Deep Six'' (AWOL-99)]]. This template halves that to {{USS|Deep Six|AWOL-99}}.
Formal Usage
[തിരുത്തുക]- {{USS|Ship Name}}
- {{USS|Ship Name|ID}}, where ID can be the hull number, launch year, or pennant number, as specified in the article title.
Examples
[തിരുത്തുക]| Template usage | Equivalent wikicode | Final result |
|---|---|---|
| {{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65}} | [[USS Enterprise (CVN-65)|USS ''Enterprise'' (CVN-65)]] | USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |
| {{USS|Constellation|1797}} | [[USS Constellation (1797)|USS ''Constellation'' (1797)]] | USS Constellation (1797) |
| {{USS|Constitution}} | [[USS Constitution|USS ''Constitution'']] | USS Constitution |
Last example could be used to link to ship index (disambiguation) page
Optional display control parameter
[തിരുത്തുക]There is an optional third parameter that controls which pieces of text are displayed in the article. It's value is treated as a binary number and will display the corresponding "bits". So setting the 4's bit will display USS, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| None | all | {{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65}} | [[USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |USS ''Enterprise'' (CVN-65)]] | USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |
| 1 | 3rd | {{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65|1}} | [[USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |CVN-65]] | CVN-65 |
| 2 | 2nd | {{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65|2}} | [[USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |''Enterprise'']] | Enterprise |
| 3 | 2nd, 3rd | {{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65|3}} | [[USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |''Enterprise'' (CVN-65)]] | Enterprise (CVN-65) |
| 4 | invalid result | {{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65|4}} | [[USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |Invalid Optional Parameter]] | Error: {{Ship}} invalid control parameter: 4 (help) |
| 5 | 1st, 3rd | {{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65|5}} | [[USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |USS (CVN-65)]] | USS CVN-65 |
| 6 | 1st, 2nd | {{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65|6}} | [[USS Enterprise (CVN-65) |USS ''Enterprise'']] | USS Enterprise |
| 2nd (no 3rd) |
{{USS|Constitution|3=2}} Alternate usage: {{USS|Constitution||2}} |
[[USS Constitution |''Constitution'']] | Constitution |
N.B.: Be careful with the third parameter if not using the second parameter. In the Constitution 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.
Using an optional display control parameter value of 6 yields the same results as using {{warship}} to create the same link and text, but saving, coincidentally, 6 characters while editing.
{{USS|Enterprise|CVN-65|6}} yields the same results as {{warship|USS|Enterprise|CVN-65}}
