Template documentation | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Adt}}). |
Adt creates the 'accessdate' field and value for most Citation templates.
Access dates may be implemented in three formats and should be consistent throughout the article:
- D Month YYYY: 3 November 2024 ("DMY" – day followed by full month name, followed by year; no leading zeros)
- Month D, YYYY: November 3, 2024 ("MDY" – full month name then day; comma separating the day and year; no leading zeros)
- YYYY-MM-DD: 2024-11-03 ("ISO" — all numeric, with 2-digit day and month)
Usage
This template MUST be subst'd.
When subst'd, the template provides the accessdate parameter name, the = sign, and the formatted date. You may specify a date format to be consistent with the other citations in the article:
| Markup | Generates | Renders as |
|---|---|---|
|
|
|
|
Note that the template does not include the leading pipe (|); always precede {{subst:adt}} with a pipe character as in the examples above.
