This template was created for demo purposes. Do not use it on actual content pages.

This template converts a YearMonthDay timestamp into the standard LGPedia date string and categorizes the page under Category:Lonelygirl15 videos by date and Category:KateModern videos by date, respectively.

Usage

{{Date/sandbox}}

This adds today.

{{Date/sandbox|TIMESTAMP}}

By manually adding a timestamp, you can pre- or post-date videos.

Date formatting

Dates have to be formatted year, month, date; zero-padded, no punctuation. If you did it right, you should have a total of eight digits. Christmas Eve 2007 would be formatted as 20071224, for example.

For comparison and understanding:

Today is Thursday, August 27, 2026.
In digits, this would either be 08/27/2026 (US) or 27/08/2026 (majority of the world).
Formatted correctly for the template, it would be 20260827.
