Template:Currentmonthday

May 16

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

The {{Currentmonthday}} template takes no parameters and returns the current month name and the current day of the month, like this:

{{Currentmonthday}} renders: May 16

Note that the same date can be shown for up to a week on a page since Wikipedia caches pages and only re-renders them under one of the follow circumstances:

1. Someone visits the page and it has not been re-rendered in a week;
2. Someone visits the page and manually purges or edits it.
