Please check that you do actually need this template before using it. Default date sorting does not work for spelled-out month–year or year–month combos and dates before the year 100, but it works in most other circumstances. Furthermore, this template litters the text content of tables, and data-sort-value should generally be preferred. For more information, see Help:Sorting § Date sorting problems. |

Dts (date time sorting) is used to correctly sort and display dates in a sortable table (see Help:Sorting).
What it solves
[සංස්කරණය]Dates in their customary formats, if simply treated as alphanumeric text strings, sort in nonsensical ways:
- 1/8/2013 sorts alphanumerically before 5/3/1967, because 1 is less than 5;
- February 5, 1922 sorts alphanumerically before January 3, 1922, because F comes before J.
Use of the YYYY-MM-DD format would solve this problem, but with minor exceptions that format is not used in articles (see WP:DATEFORMAT).
This template automatically attaches a "hidden key" to dates, causing them to sort correctly while still being displayed in one of the customary display formats such as February 5, 1922 or 5 Feb 1922.
Parameters
[සංස්කරණය]Dates
[සංස්කරණය]{{dts|year|month|day|BC}} | {{dts|date}} |
---|---|
|

Formatting
[සංස්කරණය]Using format
produces a format that depends on, but is not necessarily equal to the format of the supplied date. The format
parameter can take nine values.

[සංස්කරණය]There are two ways of abbreviating the month name.
- Directly input an abbreviated month name.
- Use the
abbr=on
parameter.

Additional sort key
[සංස්කරණය]In case two dates in a table are identical they may be ordered using the addkey
parameter.

Wrapping
[සංස්කරණය]To turn off the suppression of word wraps, use the nowrap=off
parameter.
Notes
[සංස්කරණය]Sorting for incomplete dates
[සංස්කරණය]- Whole months or years
- A whole year or month (and year) is sorted according to its first day.
- Missing years
- If the year is not specified, the date will be sorted as if the year were the current year.
- Blank dates
- For no date input at all, the maximum possible sort key is used, so the entry will sort last.
Error handling
[සංස්කරණය]Entering an invalid date format will (generally) produce an error message such as the one below.
Error in Template:Dts: '35 June 1900' is an invalid date
Errors are tracked in Category:Dts templates with errors.
Calendar choice
[සංස්කරණය]The template is not capable of distinguishing Julian and Gregorian calendar dates. Also, it is not capable of taking a date in one calendar as input and outputting a date in the other calendar. Thus, to insure proper sorting, editors must either use one calendar for all dates, or pick a specific changeover date (for example, deciding that 4 October 1582 is Julian and all later dates are Gregorian); this would be done on an article-by article basis. Editors are also responsible for explaining to the reader whether the visible dates are Julian or Gregorian, if there is any possibility of confusion.
Linking
[සංස්කරණය]The template formerly linked dates automatically, with link=off
used to suppress linking. In accordance with current guidelines linking of dates is no longer supported and instances of link=off
should be removed. Transclusions using the |link=
parameter are tracked in Category:Dts templates with deprecated parameters.
