==Usage==
This purpose of the '''{{tl|Start date}}''' template is to return a date (or date-time). It also includes duplicate date (or date-time) in the ISO date format (which is hidden by CSS), for use in [[microformat]]s. This hidden date degrades gracefully when CSS is not available.

==Syntax==
*<nowiki>{{Start date|year|month|day}}</nowiki>
*<nowiki>{{Start date|year|month|day|HH|MM|SS|TimeZone}}</nowiki> (MM and SS are optional; TimeZone may be a numerical value, or "Z" for [[Coordinated Universal Time|UTC]]; see examples)

;Examples

*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|||+01:00}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|||+01:00}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|||-07:00}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|||-07:00}}"
*:<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|Z}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|Z}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|+01:00}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|+01:00}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|-07:00}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|23|-07:00}}"

An optional parameter, <tt>df</tt>, can be set to "y" or "yes" (or indeed any value) to display the day before the month. This is primarily used in articles about events in parts of the world where the day precedes the month in a date.

;Examples:

*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|df=y}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|df=y}}"
*<nowiki>{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|df=yes}}</nowiki> returns "{{Start date|1993|02|24|08|30|df=yes}}"

'''Note:''' The template will appear broken when the parameters are left blank (as seen hereinbefore).

==Use in microformats==
{{UF-date-part}}

==See also==
*'''{{tl|End date}}'''
*'''{{tl|Start date and age}}'''
*'''{{tl|Start-date}}''' (an alternative to this template)
*'''{{tl|Film date}}''' – a similar template, but for use with {{tl|Infobox film}}
