    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 "(1993-02-24)February 24, 1993"
    {{Birth date and age|1993|2|24}} returns (1993-02-24) February 24, 1993 (age 31)

    An optional perimeter, df, can be set to "yes" to display the day before the month. This is primarily used for articles about people from Europe.

    Examples:

    {{Birth date|1993|2|24|df=yes}} returns "(1993-02-24)24 February 1993"
    {{Birth date and age|1993|2|24|df=yes}} returns " (1993-02-24) 24 February 1993 (age 31)"

    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).
