This template converts a YearMonthDay timestamp into the standard LGPedia date string.
Usage
{{Date}}
This adds today.
{{Date|TIMESTAMP}}
By manually adding a timestamp, you can pre- or post-date videos.
Date formatting
Dates have to be formatted year, month, date; zero-padded, no punctuation. If you did it right, you should have a total of eight digits. Christmas Eve 2007 would be formatted as 20071224
, for example.
For comparison and understanding:
- Today is Monday, June 3, 2024.
- In digits, this would either be 06/3/2024 (US) or 3/06/2024 (majority of the world).
- Formatted correctly for the template, it would be 2024063.
