Template:Other date
Template documentation | Uses Lua: |
This template allows translation (localization) of many non-trivial phrases related to date description. This template has similar but more limited capabilities than {{Complex date}}. Please use {{Complex date}} instead of nesting {{Other date}} templates (calling {{Other date}} with inputs being other {{Other date}} templates).
The template automatically sets the following categories:
- Category:Pages using Complex date template with incorrect parameter (when errors are detected)
- Category:Unknown date (when dates are unknown, see also Template:Unknown)
- Category:Pages using Other date template with era
Usage
{{Other date |1= |2= }}
