This is a documentation subpage for Template:DATE. It contains usage information, categories and other content or metadata that is not part of the original template. |
This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{{ subst:DATE}}). |
Usage
This template will create the date= parameter in the proper format needed by most maintenance and clean-up templates that auto-include maintenance categories with the tags.
Example use:
{{unreferenced|{{subst:DATE}}}}
