Usage
[edit]In an article, this template should only be used in the "External links" section.
Basic usage
[edit]The required parameter is the ID number. The template then uses the article title as the anchor text:
* {{Lighthouse Digest|ID}}

* {{Lighthouse Digest|1051}}
will, when placed in the external links section of Krynica Morska Lighthouse, display as
- Krynica Morska Lighthouse in Lighthouse Digest's Lighthouse Explorer Database
Named usage

* {{Lighthouse Digest|ID|NAME}}
Example:
* {{Lighthouse Digest|4788|Cape Bolinao Lighthouse}}
will, when placed in the external links section of Bolinao, Pangasinan, display as
- Cape Bolinao Lighthouse in Lighthouse Digest's Lighthouse Explorer Database
