Template:ISO date/doc

This template converts dates to YYYY-MM-DD or YYYY-MM or YYYY as appropriate - see below for restrictions on input formats accepted.

Usage
This template only converts dates formated in one of the formats below to an ISO date

The template accepts one parameter - which must be unnamed. For example:


 * { { ISO date|15 January 2001}} returns
 * { { ISO date|March 2003}} returns

The date parameter must be in one of the following formats:
 * 15 January 2001
 * 15 Jan 2001
 * January 15, 2001
 * Jan 15, 2001
 * 15-01-2001
 * January 2001
 * Jan 2001
 * 2001

Formats for which it can not work because #time returns an error:
 * 01-15-2001
 * 1/2001
