 | This template is used on approximately 168,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. Preview message: Transclusion count updated automatically (see documentation). |
 | This template uses Lua: |
The Time ago template calculates the amount of time which has passed since a provided timestamp. The result is a string similar to one of the examples below. This template should not be used with "subst" unless you don't want the stamp to change as the user refreshes the page.
Note that due to Wikipedia's caching mechanisms, you may need to purge a page using this template to update the dynamic value. See the section Purge below.
The result is rounded down. "Month" is defined as 31 days.
Usage
[edit]{{Time ago|timestamp}}
The timestamp can be almost any solid, readable format but to avoid ambiguity mistakes, one of the styles below is preferred.
magnitudeparameter can be set to explicitly use certain unit. Allowed values are:seconds,minutes,hours,days,weeks,monthsandyears.min_magnitudeparameter can be set to use the specified unit or bigger units. Allowed values are:seconds,minutes,hours,days,monthsandyears.agoparameter can be set to override the default usage of the text "ago". If the parameter is blank but not missing (i.e.{{time ago|2008|ago=}}), then the text "ago" is suppressed altogether. For future dates, setting "ago" as blank but not missing will suppress the text "time" (i.e. "2 years" instead of "2 years' time").
Spelling out numbers
[edit]Numbers from 1 to 100 can be spelled out in their equivalent English word by using the spellout parameter. If spellout is set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", all numbers from 1 to 100 will be spelled out. If spellout is set to "auto", only numbers from 1 to 9 will be spelled out, as per the recommendations at MOS:NUMERAL.
It is also possible to set a custom maximum value for spelling out by using the spelloutmax parameter. For example, setting |spellout=yes and |spelloutmax=24 will result in all numbers less than or equal to 24 being spelled out, and all numbers greater than 24 appearing as numerals.
Numeric output
[edit]Add |numeric=y to print the number only (no text).
Purge link
[edit]Add the parameter |purge=yes to add a purge link.
