Revision as of 05:44, 14 January 2018
{{date link}}, or {{dl}}, is a template used in infoboxes to autolink date variables. This template is not to be confused with {{d}}, which simply makes a link to a singular date article, like 2008 or 23 November.
Use of the template is very simple.
{{dl|12 December 2024}} (in this instance, the current date) will automatically link to that release date (12 December 2024). It will also set SMW for that page to recognise that release date.
If you do not wish to also call on SMW, please use {{dl/text}} or {{dl/link}}, rather than {{dl}} direct. {{dl/link}} will exclude notes; in all other versions, parentheticals will be retained, and given in small text beside the release date, often, of course, within an infobox. Such an infobox can be seen on the right.
- {{dl|12 November 2016}} => 12 November 2016 (SMW: 2016-11-12)
- {{dl|9 February 1991}} => 9 February 1991 (SMW: 1991-02-09)
- {{dl|January 1995}} => January 1995 (SMW: 1995-01)
- {{dl|2017}} => 2017 (SMW: 2017)
- {{dl|12 December 2024}} => 12 December 2024 (SMW: 2024-12-12)
