 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:End date. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
This template ({{End date}}) returns a date, or date-time. It also include the same date (and time) duplicated in a hidden (by CSS) ISO date format, for use in microformats. This hidden date degrades gracefully when CSS is not available.
Syntax
- {{End date|year|month|day}}
Examples:
- {{End date|1993|2|24|23|59|59|notime=yes}} returns "23:59:59, February 24, 1993"
- {{End date|1993|2|24|08|30}} returns "08:30, February 24, 1993"
An optional parameter, |df=, can be set to "y" or "yes" (or indeed any value) to display the day before the month. This is primarily used in articles about events in parts of the world where the day precedes the month in a date.
Another optional parameter, |notime=, can be set to "y" or "yes" (or indeed any value) to display the date without displaying the time. Specifying the time is required by the hCalendar standard, this is a way of suppressing the display of the time whilst still meeting the standard.
Examples:
- {{End date|1993|2|24|23|59|59|notime=yes|df=yes}} returns "23:59:59, 24 February 1993"
{{End date|1993|2|24|df=yes}} returns "24 February 1993"
Note: The template will appear broken when parameters are left blank (as seen above).
Use in microformats
The template returns the date as hCalendar's (class="dtend"). For example:
- (<span class="dtend">1993-02-24T08:30</span>)
(disable CSS or view source to see the hidden ISO-formatted output).
Note: due to the requirement exclusive "dtend" in hCalendar, and the accessibility problems that presents when a date is rendered (as seen without CSS) as 28 March 1999 (1999-03-29) or even 28 February 1999 (1999-03-01) or 31 December 1999 (2000-01-01), the Date end template should not be used for whole-day dates and should have a time of 23:59:59. For whole-day dates, the parameter |notime=yes may be used with a time of 23:59:59, to display the date without the time yet to maintain a valid hCalendar microformat.
See the microformats project for further details.
