Template:Format start end

Template documentation

Description

Format the contents of a date range with an intermediate delimiter. It is intended to be invoked from complex list-building treatment with Wikidades's table function, where the possible non-existence of one of the two dates requires a code-compliant treatment.

The parameters are all manual. No WD recovery.

Syntax

It accepts both, named or positional parameters. Use the two options by the same parameter generates a conflict. This must be avoided.

 {{Format start end | start = | end = | open = | close = | separator =}}

If there is no start or end , the result is null Ignore dates with no value content.

• start or <parameter 1> = start date. If it is not informed, it is blank.

• open or <parameter 3> = left symbol to circle dates. If not reported set ( by default.
• close or <parameter 4> = right symbol to circle dates. If not reported set default to ).
• separator or <parameter 5> = symbol to separate the two dates. The default is - . It will show even if we only have one of the two dates to indicate if the information is the start or end date.
