Usage संपादन करीं

This template ({{Format date}}) returns a date, or date-time, without the hidden version for use in microformats. This template is probably best used internally in other templates.

If you need the microformat support, use template {{Start date}} instead.

If you want sortable dates for a table, use {{Date table sorting}} instead.

Syntax संपादन करीं

  • {{Format date|year|month|day}}
  • {{Format 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:

  • {{Format date|1993}} returns "1993"
  • {{Format date|1993|02}} returns "फरवरी 1993"
  • {{Format date|1993|02|24}} returns "फरवरी 24, 1993"
  • {{Format date|1993|02|24|08|30}} returns "08:30, फरवरी 24, 1993"
  • {{Format date|1993|02|24|08|+01:00}} returns "फरवरी 24, 1993 (+01:00)"
  • {{Format date|1993|02|24|08|-07:00}} returns "फरवरी 24, 1993 (-07:00)"
    {{Format date|1993|02|24|08|30|23}} returns "08:30:23, फरवरी 24, 1993"
  • {{Format date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|Z}} returns "08:30:23, फरवरी 24, 1993 (UTC)"
  • {{Format date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|+01:00}} returns "08:30:23, फरवरी 24, 1993 (+01:00)"
  • {{Format date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|-07:00}} returns "08:30:23, फरवरी 24, 1993 (-07:00)"

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.

Examples:

  • {{Format date|1993|02|24}} returns "24 फरवरी 1993"
  • {{Format date|1993|02|24|08|30}} returns "08:30, 24 फरवरी 1993"

Note: The template will appear broken when the parameters are left blank (as seen hereinbefore).
