[edit] Link parameters added

I have added two parameters to the NVR template based on discussion at Template talk:DANFS. It accepts up to two external links to NVR entries. If you don't provide a parameter, and simply use {{NVR}}, it gives the same result as before:

This article includes information collected from the Naval Vessel Register, which, as a U.S. government publication, is in the public domain.

Using {{NVR|http://www.nvr.navy.mil/nvrships/details/DDG81.htm}} produces this:

This article includes information collected from the Naval Vessel Register, which, as a U.S. government publication, is in the public domain. The entry can be found here.

Using {{NVR|http://www.nvr.navy.mil/nvrships/details/DDG81.htm|http://www.nvr.navy.mil/nvrships/details/DDG81.htm}} produces this:

This article includes information collected from the Naval Vessel Register, which, as a U.S. government publication, is in the public domain. The entries can be found here and here.

I don't know why you would want to include two links, but I had just added the two-link functionality to {{DANFS}} and figured it couldn't hurt to add it here. TomTheHand (talk) 16:52, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
