2000s bug
[edit]This template appears to be broken for the years 2000-2459. Test cases:
| input | result | comment |
|---|---|---|
| {{subst:YEAR|September 4, 2426}} | 2004 | day+2000 |
| {{subst:YEAR|September 3, 2000}} | 2003 | day+2000 |
| {{subst:YEAR|September 8, 2459}} | 2008 | day+2000 |
| {{subst:YEAR|September 8, 2460}} | 2460 | ...but 2460 and above is fine |
| {{subst:YEAR|2000-09-03}} | 2000 | correct when in YYYY-MM-DD format |
| {{subst:YEAR|September 3, 1999}} | 1999 | 1999 and below is fine |
| {{subst:YEAR|September 153, 2014}} | 0153 | looks like some kind of modulo issue |
It looks like it's grabbing the day instead of the year for some reason. Is this a problem with this template, or with the #date parser function? Ibadibam (talk) 01:04, 1 January 2014 (UTC)
Broken
[edit]This template appears to be broken. Testing it, {{year|October 15, 2020}} produces 2015, which is...not correct. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 04:35, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

"Cleanly substed"?
[edit]The documentation says that this template can be cleanly substed, but when I tried it, I got this mess. Can someone please fix either the template or the documentation? Thanks. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:34, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
