Template:Date/doc
This template links to a year's relevant article. It should speed up the editing process and make the text more readable when editing.
This template first tries to link to a year's dedicated article (e.g. Script error: No such module "Date".), but if that article doesn't exist the template links to the relevant section of either Years after Aegon's Conquest or Years before Aegon's Conquest.
Usage[edit source]
One year[edit source]
{{Date|#}}
where #
denotes the number of the year. Years before Aegon's Conquest must be prefixed with a negative sign -
.
For example, {{Date|300}}
results in "Script error: No such module "Date".", but {{Date|-300}}
results in "Script error: No such module "Date".".
Two years[edit source]
{{Date|from #|to #}}
When two years are given, the template returns a range.
For example, {{Date|283|298}}
results in "Script error: No such module "Date".", and {{Date|-283|298}}
results in "Script error: No such module "Date".".
As a special case, if the second argument is +
the range spans up to the present. Example: {{Date|200|+}}
results in "Script error: No such module "Date".".
