- This template was created for demo purposes. Do not use it on actual content pages.
 
This template converts a YearMonthDay timestamp into the standard LGPedia date string and categorizes the page under Category:Lonelygirl15 videos by date and Category:KateModern videos by date, respectively.
Usage
{{Date/sandbox}}
This adds today.
{{Date/sandbox|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 Tuesday, November 4, 2025.
 - In digits, this would either be 11/4/2025 (US) or 4/11/2025 (majority of the world).
 - Formatted correctly for the template, it would be 2025114.
