This is a documentation subpage for Template:Ordinal. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template uses Lua: |
This template is used on approximately 134,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
{{Ordinal|integer}}
This template will add the appropriate ordinal indicator to a given integer.
Use {{Ordinal|integer|sup=yes}}
to display the ordinal suffix in superscript. Do not use superscript notation in the article space, per this section of the Manual of Style.
For an integer ending in 1, 2 or 3 (except for integers ending in 11, 12 or 13), the ordinal suffix will be -st, -nd and -rd, respectively. To display -d for the ordinal suffix rather than -nd and -rd, use {{Ordinal|integer|d}}
.
This template should not be used in running prose in articles; it is intended for automated script processing of numeric data. Writing something like "in the {{ordinal|16}} century
" serves no purpose, and just makes the wikicode harder to understand and edit.
Examples
