ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Start and end dates
 | This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see Wikipedia:COinS. |
This purpose of the {{start and end dates}} template is to return the date range during which an event transpired or an entity existed. It also includes duplicate, machine-readable date (or date-time) in the ISO date format (which is hidden by CSS), for use inside other templates (or table rows) which emit microformats. It should be used only once in each such template and never used outside such templates. The hidden date degrades gracefully when CSS is not available.
Usage[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]
When not to use this template[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]

- outside microformat-emitting templates - if in doubt, see the parent template's documentation

Use in microformats[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]
This template also returns the date, hidden by CSS, in the ISO 8601 format needed by one or more of the following microformats:
usually, but not always, within infobox or similar templates, or tables.
Its use in hCard is for organizations, venues and similar; use {{Birth date}} or {{Birth date and age}} for people.
Similarly, {{End date}} returns the date as hCalendar's (class="dtend").
See the microformats project for further details.
Limitation[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]
This template has no provision to deal with a date in a non-Gregorian calendar. Also, ISO 8601 requires mutual agreement among those exchanging information before using years outside the range 1583–9999 CE. Therefore, use of this template for non-Gregorian dates or dates outside that range constitutes a false claim of conformance to the ISO 8601 standard.
Any editor encountering such usage should change the date to plain text with no template; or if not confident in doing so, raise the matter on this template's talk page.
