Template:Cathead navy submarines/doc
![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cathead navy submarines. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is for creating a standardized appearance for categories of submarines organized by navy.
Usage
[edit]For countries not prefixed with the definite article the, like "Belgium" or "France", use:
{{cathead navy submarines | Navy name | Country name }}
where Navy name is replaced by the specific navy's name and Country name is replaced by the specific country's name. For countries that are prefixed with the definite article, like "the Netherlands" or "the United Kingdom", use:
{{cathead navy submarines | the = yes | Navy name | Country name }}
For more complex cases, where the category shouldn't sort under the navy's full name, like wanting to sort "Royal Thai Navy" under T for Thai rather than R for Royal, an optional sort parameter may be used
{{cathead navy submarines | Royal Thai Navy | Thailand | Thai Navy, Royal }}
For a country with more than one navy through its history, like Japan with the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) and the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF), another optional sort parameter may be used to sort the categories in chronological order
{{cathead navy submarines | Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force | Japan | | Japan 1946 }}
Using "Japan 1946" will cause the JMSDF category to sort after the IJN category
