Template:HMS


 * Description
 * This template is intended to simplify the wikicode needed for properly italicizing a starship's name, such as HMS New Zealand.


 * Syntax
 * The template allows for up to three variables:
 * Shipname


 * Usage
 * The simplest use is with the ship's name, such as:
 * HMS New Zealand → HMS New Zealand


 * Use of the single variable version should be avoided if a name has been given to more than one ship, unless the object is to direct the user to a disambiguation page. An example of this would be:
 * HMS Enterprise → HMS Enterprise


 * To use a link to a disambiguating starship name, enter the disambiguation text as the second variable to the template:
 * HMS Marvel (RNC-1500) → HMS Marvel (RNC-1500)


 * Please note that for ship names listed with a letter following, such as USS Enterprise-D, that letter that should given as the third variable which is postfixed to the name (unlike the typical third variable which is the entire text):
 * HMS Marvel (RNC-1500-A) → HMS Marvel (RNC-1500-A)
