== Switches ==
Please note that this template does use switches for certain articles. For example, to link to the [[Twelve Colonies of Man]], one may use:
: <nowiki>{{TOS|Twelve Colonies}}</nowiki>
Which produces: {{TOS|Twelve Colonies}}
=== Piped Variation ===
The "seen" text in the link can be defined by the inclusion of a 2nd variable call, thus:
: <nowiki>{{TOS|Twelve Colonies|the Colonies}}</nowiki>
Which produces: {{TOS|Twelve Colonies|the Colonies}}

Deletion

We should update all infoboxs to include the series icon, so we can remove this template which is just an annoyance when it comes to CSS. Shane (talk) 13:00, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. The only downside is that not every TOS page has an infobox. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 16:32, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
So while rolling the dice I've run into some TOS articles that aren't using this template. I've added it to one or two more but now that I see this discussion, I wonder: are we not using this template anymore? JubalHarshaw 19:51, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
Not really. It's one I hate messing with the CSS on. Shane (talk) 05:08, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Support and endorse the template deletion. It's long overdue. — Starkiller | reply here 23:24, 6 September 2013 (EDT)

Switches

Please note that this template does use switches for certain articles. For example, to link to the Twelve Colonies of Man, one may use:

{{TOS|Twelve Colonies}}

Which produces: Twelve Colonies of Man

Piped Variation

The "seen" text in the link can be defined by the inclusion of a 2nd variable call, thus:

{{TOS|Twelve Colonies|the Colonies}}

Which produces: the Colonies

There will probably be more, but this is a start for now. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 00:36, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
