Usage

Template parameters

Parameter	Description	Default	Status
`1`	start year	empty	required
`2`	start month	empty	optional
`3`	start day	empty	optional
`4`	end year	empty	required
`5`	end month	empty	optional
`6`	end day	empty	optional
`7`	language code (only needs to be provided if the language shall be fixed and independent of the user's preferences)	value of {{int:Lang}}	optional

Additional information

The template is intended to be used in the following namespaces: all namespaces

The template is intended to be used by the following user groups: all users

Relies on:
{{Date}}, {{LangSwitch}}

Localization

To add your language to the list of languages supported by this template, please edit the template and add a row to the "{{LangSwitch|}}" construct. It takes the form "|xx= Your translation " (xx being the code of your language)

Notes

The template is similar to one of the options of Template:Other date, but causes a smaller expansion depth, thus avoiding the "expansion depth limit exceeded" error occurring on some pages transcluding that other template.

If parameters 2 and 3 are empty or undefined, parameter 1 can contain not just a year but any text, which is passed unchanged. It can for example be the call of another template that also provides localized text, e.g. Template:Circa. Similarly for parameters 4, 5 and 6.
