The templates {{Birth year and age}} and {{Death year and age}} return a person's year of birth or death and their approximate age. The templates are useful when only the year, or year and month, of a person's birth and/or death are known, or if it is desired not to state a person's full dates of birth and death for privacy reasons.
Such an approximation differs from the approximation generated by {{Birth based on age as of date}}; the latter can be used when the only detail available about someone's birth is a reference that establishes their age as of a certain date (such as the date that the reference was published).
The person's age is estimated as follows:
Let us assume:
{{Birth year and age|1969}}
{{Birth year and age|1969|6}}
displays their birth year and age as: 1969 (age 54).Let us assume:
{{Death year and age|2023|1973}}
{{Death year and age|2023|1973|08}}
If you wish to set out the full dates of birth and/or death of a person and thus to calculate their age accurately, please use the templates {{Birth date and age}} and {{Death date and age}}.
