टेम्पलेट:Calendar date

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

{{Calendar date}} aka {{Moveable date}} is for displaying the calendar date of holidays or events that move annually, that do not have a fixed day and month of occurrence.

Examples include the Jewish new year Hanukkah which is based on a non-Gregorian calendar system. The June solstice wobbles celestially.

तिहुआर जोड़ल आ हटावल

Holidays are configured in Module:Calendar date/events which has additional documentation and examples.

There are two holiday types: "calculator" and "localfile".

calculator - Moveable dates are determined with a calculator plugin. For example Rosh Hashanah uses the {{Hebrew year}} calculator:

datatype = "calculator"

datasource = "{{#time:Y-m-d|@{{Hebrew year/rhdatum|{{#timel:xjY|YYYY-11-1}}}}-1 days}}"

When the template runs, it replaces "YYYY" with the value of the |year= argument, then executes the datasource code. Calculators can be any available on Wikipedia, so long as it accepts a year value and returns a date in ISO format. All calculators are third-party plugins, the template does not do calculations.

localfile - When a calculator is not possible or unavailable, moveable dates can be stored in local files. For example with Tu BiShvat:

datatype = "localfile"

datasource = "Module:Calendar date/localfiles/Tu BiShvat"

The file Module:Calendar date/localfiles/Tu BiShvat contains a static list of dates.

कई नाँव वाले तिहुआर

If a holiday has multiple aliases, and it's desired the template support them with the |holiday= argument, create multiple entries in Module:Calendar date/events one for each name.

बदलत रहे वाली तारीख

The |year= can accept templates.

For example, to show the current year for Tu BiShvat use {{CURRENTYEAR}}:

{{Moveable date |holiday=Tu BiShvat |year={{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

Produces

Other useful templates are {{LASTYEAR}} and {{NEXTYEAR}}.

Combined they can be used in infoboxes to fully automate updates, example from the Hanukkah infobox:

|date{{LASTYEAR}} = {{Moveable date |holiday=Hanukkah |year={{LASTYEAR}} |format=infobox |cite=}}

|date{{CURRENTYEAR}} = {{Moveable date |holiday=Hanukkah |year={{CURRENTYEAR}} |format=infobox}}

|date{{NEXTYEAR}} = {{Moveable date |holiday=Hanukkah |year={{NEXTYEAR}} |format=infobox}}

|date{{NEXTYEAR|2}} = {{Moveable date |holiday=Hanukkah |year={{NEXTYEAR|2}} |format=infobox}}
