Template:Tank navigation documentation

Introduction
The tank templates are navboxes providing links to tank articles. They are placed in relevant articles and lists relating to tanks and tank history.

Usage
Place the template below Infobox weapon, at the top of article content, or at the top of an article section.



Or place it at the bottom of an article, applying the wide style.



The template automatically collapses when necessary, but this can be overridden with the  parameter.
