Template talk:Military aircraft nation decade

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a navigational template for military aircraft categories. 'ntd' stands for 'nation', 'type', and 'decade', the three characteristics used to sort aircraft categories that this template is applied to. Similar templates include Template:Airntd, Template:Airnt, Template:Airnd, Template:Milairnd, Template:Civairnd, Template:Milairtd, Template:Civairtd. It uses {{qif}} statements to deal with problematic nations such as Russia, which do not always have the same name in every decade. It is meant to templatise the category scheme at WP:Air/C.

How to use the template

[edit]

It should be used only for [[Category:{{{nation}}} military aircraft {{{1}}}0-{{{1}}}9]], never for {{{nation}}} aircraft or {{{nation}}} civil aircraft; for these use Template:Airnd and Template:Civairnd.

You must specify the following parametres:

  • {{{nation}}}: Must be exactly the same as the adjective in the category title.
  • {{{1}}}: The first three digits of the associated decade; if the 1990s, use 199 for this parametre.


US to American

[edit]

Can someone fix this so that the Category:U.S. military aircraft articles and cats point instead to Category:American military aircraft. This change was made per CFD 2007 July 24. Thanks. --Kbdank71 01:54, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
