Usage
These templates ({{Birth date}} and {{Birth date and age}}) return a person's date of birth and optionally his/her age.
Syntax:
- {{Birth date|year of birth|month of birth|day of birth}}
or
- {{Birth date and age|year of birth|month of birth|day of birth}}
Examples:
- {{Birth date|1993|2|24}} returns "February 24, 1993"
- {{Birth date and age|1993|2|24}} returns February 24, 1993
An optional parameter, df, can be set to "yes" to display the day before the month. This is primarily used in articles about people from parts of the world where the day precedes the month in a date.
Examples:
- {{Birth date|1993|2|24|df=yes}} returns "24 February 1993"
- {{Birth date and age|1993|2|24|df=yes}} returns "24 February 1993"
The templates also return the date, hidden by CSS, in the ISO 8601 format needed by hCard microformats. for example:
- (<span class="bday">1993-02-24</span>)
See the microformats project for details.
Note: The template will appear broken when the parameters are left blank (as seen above).
