 * beam width : Optional. The width of the ship.
 * usethe : Optional. Modifies the generated category links: Set this to any value (typically yes) if you want the category links to use "the" before the name. E.g., "Locations in the Friendly Arm Inn" instead of "Locations in Friendly Arm Inn".
 * useon : Optional. Modifies the generated category links: Set this to any value (typically yes) if you want the category links to use "on" instead of "in" before the name. E.g., "Locations on Castle Waterdeep" instead of "Locations in Castle Waterdeep".
 * inhabitants, locations, organizations : Optional. If set to "yes" (quotes not included, case sensitive), the template will link to the appropriate category page. For inhabitants, this is Category:Inhabitants of name; for locations, this is Locations in name; for organizations, it is Organizations in name. The parameters usethe and useon can be specified to modify the grammar of the category name. If this is not enough to achieve an appropriate category name, instead of "yes", insert the FULL name of the category minus the "Category:" part. For example, if the appropriate category for organizations is Category:Organizations on Evermeet, set this parameter to "Organizations on Evermeet" (again, without the quotes).
 * source : Optional. If all of the information used in the template is from a single source, include that information here. Otherwise, use individual in-text citations. If not, please use individual in-text citations.
 * page : Optional. The page number(s) or range of pages in the source cited.
