A helper template which returns the name of the article on a given decade.
This is needed because the articles on decades whose name ends in 00s are disambiguated. So if a template needs to link to an article on decade, [[YYY0s]] will link to a disambiguation page for some decades.
This template allows accurate links to be generated by writing [[((Decade link|YYY0))]]. The link is piped if needed.
Usage
((Decade link|YYY0))
Often used in combination with template ((Title decade)):
((Decade link|((Title decade))))
Examples
[[((Decade link|1720))]]→ 1720s[[((Decade link|1850))]]→ 1850s[[((Decade link|1600))]]→ 1600s[[((Decade link|2000))]]→ 2000s
Note that the trailing letter "s" must be omitted:
[[((Decade link|1690s))]]→ [[Expression error: Unrecognized word "s".1690ss]][[((Decade link|1690))]]→ 1690s
