Category:Dates

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For 2003, 2004, and 2005, and from July 1, 2006, there is a page for each day. Linking events to the date page concerned allows "What links here", for each day, to list the events on that day. The pages are transcluded in the month pages such as February 2005 and February 2007. However, linking to the section or anchor concerned on these pages does not allow "What links here" for a given day.

For the years 2000, 2001, and 2002 and for the first half of 2006 the wikitext of the content is in the month pages such as February 2002 and February 2006.

For the years 1900 - 1999 the wikitext of the content is in the year pages, in a month section, e.g. 1999#February. For earlier years each section covers multiple months.

Thus, from 2000 the full content on a date is in the month article, and before 2000 in the year article.

See e.g. Special:Prefixindex/February 25 and Portal:Current events/2007 February 25
