 | This template is used on approximately 4,800 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
 | This template uses Lua: |
This template returns the number of days between two dates. Dates may be input either as full dates or as year, month and day.
Usage
Full dates
To use, type:
{{age in days|date1|date2}}(number of days between dates 1 and 2), {{age in days|date1}}(number of days since date 1) or {{age in days||date2}}(number of days until date 2)
Examples:
{{age in days|19 Aug 2008|4 Sep 2010}}gives Expression error: Unexpected < operator {{age in days|27 May 2002}}gives Expression error: Unexpected < operator {{age in days||{{#time:j M Y|+ 15 months}}}}gives Expression error: Unexpected < operator
Year, month and day
To use, type:
{{age in days|year1|month1|day1|year2|month2|day2}}(number of days between dates 1 and 2), {{age in days|year1|month1|day1}}(number of days since date 1) or {{age in days||||year2|month2|day2}}(number of day until date 2)
Or with named parameters:
{{age in days|month1= |day1= |year1= |month2= |day2= | year2= }}(number of days between dates 1 and 2), {{age in days|month1= |day1= |year1= }}(number of days since date 1) or {{age in days|month2= |day2= | year2= }}(number of day until date 2)
Examples:
{{age in days|2007|5|24|2008|4|23}} |
gives 335 |
{{age in days|2007|5|24}} |
gives 6312 |
Sorting
By adding |sortable=on a sort key will be added to the output for use in sortable tables.
Formatting
Three styles of formatting are possible.
|format=rawgives unformatted numbers with hyphens as minus signs[1] (for use in further calculations). |format=commasgives numbers formatted with commas and true minus signs.
For reasons of retrospective compatibility, the default when inputting dates as year, month and day is |format=raw; however when inputting dates in full it is |format=commas.
- Note
- ^ Negative days will occur if the first date is after the second.
Showing the unit
The default is not to show units. To show the unit ("day", days" or "d") use |show unit=.
|show unit=abbradds "d" after the number of days. |show unit=fulladds "day" or "days" after the number of days as appropriate.
