From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Test1
{{Date period|2021-01-10|2021}}

{{Date period}}

January 10 – 2021

{{Date period/sandbox}}

January 10 – 2021

Is this invalid, or should it be interpreted in a particular way? TheFeds 22:37, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Yes, it's invalid. It makes no sense. "From 10 January 2021 until 2021"? – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:58, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
Test2
{{Date period|2021|2022}}

{{Date period}}

Lua error in Module:Date_period at line 40: Either date A, date B, or both dates must be valid..

{{Date period/sandbox}}

Lua error in Module:Date_period at line 40: Either date A, date B, or both dates must be valid..

Year ranges (or year-month ranges) seem like a plausible valid input that could be handled. TheFeds 22:37, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Test3
{{Date period|2021-02-19|2021-02-25}}

{{Date period}}

February 19 – 25

{{Date period/sandbox}}

February 19 – 25

Compare to examples at Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Dates_and_numbers#Ranges: would expect February 19–25. TheFeds 22:37, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Test4
{{Date period|2021-02-19|2021-02-25|force-year=yes}}

{{Date period}}

February 19 – 25

{{Date period/sandbox}}

February 19 – 25

It doesn't look like force-year works? Would expect: February 19–25, 2021. TheFeds 22:37, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
