Template:Which calendar/doc

Usage
The Which calendar template is a variant of Clarify to be used specifically when the clarification that is needed is the calendar in which a particular date is expressed.

At various times in modern history, multiple calendars were in use at the same time. Therefore, in an article on Russian history, a date such as "March 1, 1881" may be ambiguous: it might mean March 1 1881, or it might mean February 17 1881.

You may use either of the following formats:

or



This template will place articles into Category:Articles containing ambiguous dates.

To fix the issue, use the OldStyleDate template to clarify the meaning of the date:



which produces


 * March 1 1881
