    These templates ('''{{tl|Birth date}}''' and '''{{tl|Birth date and age}}''') return a person's date of birth and optionally his/her age.
    These templates ('''{{tl|Birth date}}''' and '''{{tl|Birth date and age}}''') return a person's date of birth and optionally his/her age. The later also have the shortcut: '''{{tl|Bda}}'''.


    Using this template rather than simply inserting the date into articles allows for the inclusion of hidden [[metadata]] about the date. This metadata can be used by web browsers and other software tools to extract the details, and display them using some other website or mapping tool, index or search them.
