<!-- Categories go at the bottom of this page and interwikis go in Wikidata. -->

The '''{{tl|End date and age}}''' template displays the date that an event or entity ended. It also includes a duplicate, machine-readable date in the [[ISO 8601]] format (which is hidden by [[CSS]]), for use inside other templates which emit [[microformat]]s. The hidden date degrades gracefully when CSS is not available.

== Usage ==
;Common usage
: <code><nowiki>{{End date and age|yyyy|mm|dd}}</nowiki></code> to display formatted as:
: {{xt|{{End date and age|2010|03|25}}}}
: <code><nowiki>{{End date and age|yyyy|mm|dd|df=yes}}</nowiki></code> to display formatted as:
: {{xt|{{End date and age|2010|03|25|df=yes}}}}

;Full syntax
: <code><nowiki>{{End date and age|yyyy|mm|dd|df=yes|p=yes|br=yes}}</nowiki></code> to display formatted as:
: {{xt|{{End date and age|2010|03|25|df=yes|p=yes|br=yes}}}}

== Parameters ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Parameter
! Status
! Description
|-
| 1
| required
| A four-digit number indicating the year.
|-
| 2
| optional
| A number between 1 and 12 indicating the month (leading zeros in the number are ignored). The month may also be specified as a name or abbreviation (e.g. "August" or "Aug").
|-
| 3
| optional
| A number between 1 and 31 indicating the day of the month (leading zeros in the number are ignored).
|-
| df=
| optional
| If the parameter '''df''' equals '''yes''', '''y''', or '''1''', the date will be displayed in DMY format: {{xt|4 March 2010}}. When this parameter is not included or set to some other value, the date will be displayed in MDY format: {{xt|March 4, 2010}}.
|-
| p=<br/>paren=
| optional
| If the parameter '''p''' or '''paren''' equals '''yes''', '''y''', or '''1''', the age will be displayed within parentheses. When this parameter is not included or set to some other value, the date and age are separated by a semicolon and a breaking space.
|-
| br=
| optional
| If the parameter '''br''' equals '''yes''', '''y''', or '''1''', a line break will be inserted between the date and the age. When this parameter is not included or set to some other value, a breaking space will be inserted between the date and the age. This does not change the separating characters between the date and age which are either a semicolon (default setting) or parentheses (if '''p=yes''').
|}

==="df" (day first) and "mf" (month first)===
The default output of this template is to display the month before the day (MDY). This default may not be appropriate for articles about events or entities in parts of the world where dates are commonly given with the day preceding the month (DMY). To display the day first, assign the '''df''' parameter a value of '''yes''', '''y''', or '''1''' (e.g. '''df=yes''').

If the default format is preferred, the parameter '''df''' may be used with value of '''no''', '''n''', or '''0''' (e.g. '''df=no'''). These values can assist [[WP:BOT|bots]] or other automated processing to detect the intended date format; omitting the '''df''' parameter may lead an editor or bot to change the format to an unintended value.

The preference to display the month first may also be indicated via the parameter '''mf''' (e.g. '''mf=yes'''). While not actually used by the template, this is another method of indicating that the default format is intended. Do not specify both "df" and "mf" parameters in the same use of the template.

== Use in microformats ==
The template returns the date as [[hCalendar]]'s (<code>class="dtend"</code>). For example:

:<nowiki> (<span class="dtend">1993-02-24T08:30</span>)</nowiki>

(disable CSS or view source to see the hidden ISO-formatted output).

See [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Microformats|the microformats project]] for further details.

=== Example ===
{{nowiki template demo|format=inline|output=nowiki+|code=<nowiki>{{End date and age|2015|12|31}}</nowiki>}}

== Tracking categories ==
* {{clc|Pages using Template:End date and age with unknown parameters}}

== Supporting templates ==
This template is a wrapper for [[Template:Start date and age]] which uses the following templates:
* [[Template:MONTHNAME]] – display name of month for a given number 1 (January) through 12 (December).
* [[Template:Time ago]] – display number of days, months, or years ago (for dates given as <code><nowiki>|yyyy|mm|dd</nowiki></code>).
* [[Template:Years or months ago]] – display number of months or years ago (for dates given as <code><nowiki>|yyyy|mm</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>|yyyy</nowiki></code>).
* [[Template:Yesno]] – allows optional formatting parameters to accept values other than "yes" (such as "y" or "1").

* {{tl|Time ago}} and {{tl|Years or months ago}}
