Module:Navseasoncats/navyear

About

This is a former submodule to {{Navseasoncats}}. Due to minimal error checking and limited scope, it should not be used on its own except in controlled situations. It should not be used in category sequences which extend below AD 6, to simplify maintenance for that sequence and to limit the potential for error.
