Template:Ship: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

This template works differently than other templates you'll find in the wiki. The main purpose of this template is to produce something like this {{Ship|Drake|tooltip}} (you can try hovering the text to see what i mean) or his bigger brother

With just typing something as simple as this

<nowiki>{{Ship|Drake|tooltip}}</nowiki> for the tooltip-look, and

<nowiki>{{Ship|Drake|box}}</nowiki> for the bigger box-styled version

</div>

As you noticed, by using this template we don't need to write any additional ship information to produce something more informative, as long as the ship information is written on the [[Template:ShipDatabase|Template:ShipDatabase]]. This should cut down the time needed for editors and/or contributors to write articles which includes any particular ship information, not to mention the tooltip mode will enable users to put a hoverable ship information text on their articles. The tooltip mode can be used on any place on any form of wiki stylings or locations, for example inside a table or a list, since the hoverable text would be treated as a normal link by the wiki.

*[[Template:ShipDatabase|Template:ShipDatabase]] : ''this is where the ship database is stored''

All these five templates were designed to be work in conjunction to each other, meaning if one of them is missing, all five and especially this ship template won't work!
