A helper template which returns the bare name of the category on a given calendar year.
This is needed because the articles on years take three different formats ("YYY" indicates a number, e.g. "6", "29", "754", "938")
- All BC years: YYY BC
- AD years 1 to 10: AD YYY
- AD years after 10: YYY
This template allows accurate links to be generated.
Usage
[ਸੋਧੋ]{{Year category name|YYYY}}
The parameter may be:
- A bare number for AD years, e.g.
123or1937 - A negative number for BC years, e.g.
-45or-1307 - A number preceded or followed by "AD", with or without a space, e.g.
AD 17or1066AD - A number preceded or followed by "BC", with or without a space, e.g.
