Today's date is June 10.

The current week began on Sunday, June 9

[edit] Overlap

The overlap between the different templates actually doesn't seem too bad;

  1. 'Month+1' and 'Ed Poor/next month' are identical except for optional parameter and 'CURRENTMONTH' vs 'CURRENTMONTHNAME'.
  2. 'Day+1' and 'Ed Poor/tomorrow date' have similar intent, but very different implementation.
  3. 'Daycap' and 'Ed Poor/days in month' serve somewhat similar functions.

It shouldn't be too difficult to sort these out and come up with consistent naming methods. --CBDunkerson 18:41, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Zoo (examples)

Note that this category contains templates that currently needed more work and unification. Some of them are trials, and lack proper documentation and test cases. Use these templates with care, as they will need more cleanup.

Today's date is June 10.

The current US week began on Sunday, June 9

last month:

June has
20 days
left in it		 yesterday:

 day after tomorrow:

There are 20 days remaining in June.

These templates help you with dynamic date calculations:

1 January 1901 was 107 years, 5 months and 9 days ago.

Right now, yesterday is wrong. It's says "yesterday: Wednesday May 1". It got the DOW right, but today is the 1st. Rocket000 (talk) 22:17, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Oh and the day after tomorrow is the 3rd, not the 4th. Rocket000 (talk) 22:18, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Infant age

I need help creating a new template for infant age or possibly a combination birth date and age template. I have looked at the templates at Category:Date mathematics templates. I think a template converted age for infants under 1 year to ## mos. and ## days and switched to ## yrs and ## mos. from say 1-3 and then just years above. However, maybe I need two new templates for {{age in months and days}} and {{Age in years and months}}. I have already posted at

  1. {{Birth date and age}} - Template_talk:Birth_date_and_age#Infant_parameterization
  2. {{Age in years and days}} - Template_talk:Age_in_years_and_days#Infant_age
  3. {{User current age}}'s leading editor - User_talk:Alfakim#Infant_age_template--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 22:07, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
P.S. for usage see a page like the children section of Tiger Woods's infobox.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 22:08, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
