Template:NNS
Usage[edit]
This is a typing short cut for linking to Nigerian Navy ship articles named in the format "NNS Aradu (F89)". Since ship names are italicized in article text, linking to them in the usual manner means typing everything twice, such as [[NNS Aradu (F89)|NNS ''Aradu'' (F89)]]. This template halves that to {{NNS|Aradu|F89}}.
Formal usage[edit]
{{NNS|Ship Name}}{{NNS|Ship Name|ID}}, where ID can be the hull number, launch year, or pennant number, as specified in the article title.
Examples[edit]
