Template:Compare dates/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage

[edit]

This template takes two mandatory unnamed parameters. The first is a date/time string and the second is a level of precision. It then returns a plain language comparison of the date/time to the current UTC date/time. If it's not the next, current, or previous one, the template just returns the date/time entered.
