This template is for use on category pages for births by year in the Common Era.

To create such a page, add

{{birthyr|D|Y}}

where D is the year without the last digit, and Y is the last digit of the year.

For example, for deaths in year 2017, add

{{birthyr|201|7}}

The template will put the category into a parent category for births in that decade, Category:2010s births, as well as the category for events in that year.
