Template:MC/Years or months ago/doc
Template page
More actions
This template displays the number of years (or months if less than 1 year) between a specified year/month date and the current year/month. It will also work correctly when only the year is given. Optionally, a second year/month date can be specified to be used instead of the current year/month.
Usage
For years or months before or after current date:
{{Years or months ago|year|month}}{{Years or months ago|year}}
For years or months between two dates:
{{Years or months ago|year1|month1|year2|month2}}
Examples
The following examples use April 2026 as the current month and year. If that is not correct, click the Purge link at the top of this documentation (or here) to update the page.
