This template takes a date string in yyyy/mm/dd
format and stores it as a complex date property value using Template:SetDatePropertyValue. This whole headache is necessary to support incomplete date values with BC support.
The template will store up to four values:
{{{property|}}}
- the combined date.{{{property|}}} Year
- the year part.{{{property|}}} Month
- the month part.{{{property|}}} Day
- the day part.
NOTE: As any "set" template, it doesn't print anything on the page, but merely sets the appropriate values.
Parameters:
|property=
- the name of the property.|datestring=
- the date value in yyyy/mm/dd format. The month and day are optional. YYYY BC and YYYY BCE formats are allowed for BC years.|reporterror=
- if given, an error message will be printed if no date is found in datestring.
