Template:Boeing model/doc
Appearance
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Boeing model. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used to format Boeing aircraft model numbers in such a way that they are not mistaken for number ranges. Many Boeing arcraft are designated with model numbers which include one or more hyphens. This format is often mistaken for a number range by editors, and as such the hyphen is often incorrectly replaced with and en dash per MOS:RANGE, especially by automated or semi-automated editing tools such as AutoWikiBrowser.
