Purpose[మార్చు]
This template has two functions:
- To provide correct formatting of film release dates and their locations within {{Infobox film}}. A citation for each date/location may also be supplied.
- To automatically categorize films according to their first release date.
Usage[మార్చు]
This template is intended to supply a result to the |released= parameter of {{Infobox film}}.
The template adds Category:YYYY films where YYYY is the year of first release, as well as Category:Upcoming films for films that have not reached their first release yet. Please note that Category:YYYY films will only be added if the category exists, and that if only the year is included as the release date, the film is considered to be "upcoming" during that entire year.
The television equivalents of these categories (Category:YYYY television films and Category:Upcoming television films) are used when the |TV= parameter is set for use on television film articles.
Syntax[మార్చు]
This template allows up to five release dates/locations, but normally no more than two are needed. Please see WP:FILMRELEASE for a full explanation.
One release date only[మార్చు]
{{Film date|year|month|day|location|ref1=<ref name="xxxxx" />}}
If no location is specified, month and day may be omitted. If location is specified, then month and day must be supplied, though they may be left blank or empty if not known; ref1= is an optional parameter allowing a named reference ("xxxxx") to be used to verify the date/location of the release.
More than one release date[మార్చు]
{{Film date|year1|month1|day1|location1|ref1=<ref name="xxxxx" />|year2|month2|day2|location2|ref2=<ref name="yyyy" />}}and similarly for up to five dates/locations.
In this case, all the year, month, day and location parameters, except the last, must be supplied, but as before, month and day may be left empty or blank if not known. Note that ref1=, ref2=, etc. are optional named parameters, and either may be omitted without affecting the other parameters.
Examples[మార్చు]
{{Film date|1993}} returns:
1993
{{Film date|1993|02}} returns:
1993 ఫిబ్రవరి
{{Film date|1993|02|24}} returns:
1993 ఫిబ్రవరి 24
{{Film date|1993|February|24}} returns:
1993 ఫిబ్రవరి 24
{{Film date|1993|02|24||2008|03}} returns:
1993 ఫిబ్రవరి 24
మార్చి 2008
{{Film date|1993|02|24|Latvia}} returns:
1993 ఫిబ్రవరి 24 (Latvia)
{{Film date|1993|02|24||2008|03|23}} returns:
1993 ఫిబ్రవరి 24
మార్చి 23, 2008
Optional parameters[మార్చు]
- df can be set to "y" or "yes" to display the day before the month. Default is month before day.
{{Film date|1993|02|24|df=y}} returns:
1993 ఫిబ్రవరి 24
{{Film date|1993|02|24|Latvia|df=y}} returns:
1993 ఫిబ్రవరి 24 (Latvia)
- fy can be set to override the automatic category. For example:
{{Film date|1993|02|24||2008|03|23}} uses the category వర్గం:1993 films
{{Film date|1993|02|24||2008|03|23|fy=2008}} uses the category వర్గం:2008 films.
- TV is to be used for television films. It sorts films into
[[Category:YYYY television films]]in place of[[Category:YYYY films]]. SetTV=yorTV=yesto do this.
- ref1, ref2, ref3, ref4, ref5 are used to supply named references. See above for detail.
