Template:NHLS url/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:NHLS url. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
The purpose of this template is to provide a single location for the base url that links to the nps.gov website. In the event that the base url is changed at nps.gov, a single change here corrects thousands of broken links.
This template uses {{NRHP url/core}}. When it becomes necessary to change the base url, that change is made at {{NRHP url/core}}.
