Purpose[edit]

This template gives local date of your specified timezone.

Mechanism[edit]

Similar to Template:Revisedtime, see Template talk:Revisedtime.

Usage[edit]

{{Reviseddate
	|your local timezone: -12,-11,...,-1,0,+1,...,+12
	|{{CURRENTMONTH}}
	|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}
	|{{CURRENTDAY}}
	|{{CURRENTTIME}}=now
	|=
}}

A little many parameter are for recuding server load. If you think it's too troublesome, or you just use it as your signature, you can use Template:Rdate to shield surplus parameters.
Note: because of the cache mechanism, the result will not update automatically without purging or editing. So it's not suggested to use it as revised CURRENTDAY or CURRENTMONTHNAME.


Examples[edit]

  • {{Reviseddate|0|{{CURRENTMONTH}}|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}|{{CURRENTDAY}}|{{CURRENTTIME}}=now|=}} gives 19 April.
  • {{Reviseddate|+8|{{CURRENTMONTH}}|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}|{{CURRENTDAY}}|{{CURRENTTIME}}=now|=}} gives 20 April.
  • {{Reviseddate|0|12|December|31|23:59=now|=}} gives 31 December.
  • {{Reviseddate|+8|12|December|31|23:59=now|=}} gives 01 January.
