Template:Death date

Usage

Returns a person's date of death.

Syntax:

{{Death date|year of death|month of death|day of death}}

Example:

{{Death date | 1993 | 2 | 24}}
returns February 24, 1993( 1993 -02-24)

An optional parameter, df, can be set (to "y" or "yes" for example) 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. Conversely the unimplemented parameter , mf, can be set as a hint for "month first", currently the default behaviour.

Example:

{{Death date | 1993 | 2 | 24 | df=yes}}
returns "24 February 1993( 1993 -02-24)"

Note: The template will appear broken when the parameters are left blank.
