Note! Gross tonnage is a dimensionless index calculated with a mathematical formula. While this template allows, for the sake of backwards compatibility, the use of "tons" as the unit for gross tonnage, this is not correct and should not be used in future articles.
{{GT|number|disp=|link=}}
|disp=
when empty or omitted, displays the abbreviated form:
{{GT|36,000|disp=}}
→ 36,000
GT|disp=long
creates a verbose description suitable for the first occurrence on a page
{{GT|36,000|disp=long}}
→ 36,000
gross tonnage (GT)|disp=adj
creates the adjectival form:
{{GT|36,000|disp=adj}}
→ 36,000-
