Command structure box

edit

A command structure box may be used to summarize information about an individual military unit's parent and subordinate units; it should generally be used in conjunction with {{Infobox military unit}}. If needed, multiple boxes may be used to show the unit's command structure during different periods.

The box should be added using the {{Infobox command structure}} template, as shown below:

{{Infobox command structure
| name = 
| date =
| parent =
| subordinate =
}}

Note: When using parameters, avoid the ambiguous abbreviation "N/A", and instead use "unknown" or "none". All subjective or qualitative judgements and numerical quantities or statistics must be cited to a reliable source (see WP:MILMOS#CITE).

  • name – the name of the unit or formation.
  • dateoptional – the dates during which the given structure was in place.
  • parentoptional – the unit's parent unit.
  • subordinateoptional – the unit's subordinate units.

Operations 10 patrols
Victories 30 ships (162,769 GRT) sunk,
1 warship (29,150 tons) sunk,
8 ships (62,751 GRT) damaged

A service record box may be used to summarize information about an individual military unit's or ship's service history; it should generally be used in conjunction with the appropriate primary infobox. If needed, multiple boxes may be used to separate the service record for different periods; for example, a unit that fought in several wars may have separate boxes for each.

The box should be added using the {{Infobox service record}} template, as shown below:

{{Infobox service record
| is_ship =
| is_multi =
| label = 
| partof =
| codes =
| commanders =
| operations =
| victories =
| awards =
}}

Note: When using parameters, avoid the ambiguous abbreviation "N/A", and instead use "unknown" or "none". All subjective or qualitative judgements and numerical quantities or statistics must be cited to a reliable source (see WP:MILMOS#CITE).

  • is_shipoptional – "yes" if the box is being used inside a compound ship infobox.
  • is_multioptional – "yes" if multiple instances of the box are being used inside a single compound ship infobox.
  • labeloptional – the label to use for the box; this defaults to "Service record" if left blank.
  • partofoptional – the unit or formation of which the subject unit or ship was a part; multiple units may be listed with the corresponding dates.

  • operationsoptional – the operations (such as battles, wars, campaigns, patrols, cruises, etc.) in which the subject unit or ship participated; these may be given as a list, or described in a more condensed form.

  • awardsoptional – the awards, decorations, or other honors received by the subject unit or ship.
