Cèṭa'an:Start date/doc

This purpose of the {{start date}} template is to return the date (or date-time) that an event or entity started or was created, and to do so in a standard format. It also includes duplicate, machine-readable date (or date-time) in the ISO date format (which is hidden by CSS), for use inside other templates (or table rows) which emit microformats. It should be used only once in each such template and never used outside such templates. The hidden date degrades gracefully when CSS is not available.

When not to use this template

Do not use this template for:

• dates that are uncertain e.g., "before 4 April 1933"; "around 18 November 1939".
• dates outside the range given under "Limitation", below.
• other, secondary dates
• outside microformat-emitting templates or table rows - if in doubt, see the parent template's documentation
• more than one date in any parent template
• dates displayed using AM/PM format - this template only outputs 24-hour clocks

Syntax

• {{start date|year|month|day}}
• {{start date|year|month|day|HH|MM|SS|TimeZone}} (MM and SS are optional; TimeZone may be a numerical value, or "Z" for UTC; see examples)

Examples

• {{start date|1993}} → "1993 (1993)"
• {{start date|1993|02}} → " 1993 (1993-02)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24}} → " 24, 1993 (1993-02-24)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24|08|30}} → "08:30,  24, 1993 (1993-02-24T08:30)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24|08|||+01:00}} → " 24, 1993 (+01:00) (1993-02-24T08+01:00)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24|08|||−07:00}} → " 24, 1993 (−07:00) (1993-02-24T08−07:00)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23}} → "08:30:23,  24, 1993 (1993-02-24T08:30:23)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|Z}} → "08:30:23,  24, 1993 (UTC) (1993-02-24T08:30:23Z)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|+01:00}} → "08:30:23,  24, 1993 (+01:00) (1993-02-24T08:30:23+01:00)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|−07:00}} → "08:30:23,  24, 1993 (−07:00) (1993-02-24T08:30:23−07:00)"

An optional parameter, df, can be set to "y" or "yes" (or indeed any value) to display the day before the month. The order of parameters does not change (it remains YMD). This is primarily used in articles using DMY format for dates.

Examples

• {{start date|1993|02|24|df=y}} → "24  1993 (1993-02-24)"
• {{start date|1993|02|24|08|30|df=yes}} → "08:30, 24  1993 (1993-02-24T08:30)"

Use in microformats

This template also returns the date, hidden by CSS, in the ISO 8601 format needed by one or more of the following microformats:

• hAtom (class="updated")
• hAudio (class="published")
• hCalendar (class="dtstart")
• hCard (class="bday")

usually, but not always, within infobox or similar templates, or tables.

Its use in hCard is for organizations, venues and similar; use {{Birth date}} or {{Birth date and age}} for people.

Similarly, {{End date}} returns the date as hCalendar's (class="dtend").

See the microformats project for further details.
