{{ARMENIANDATE}} gives the date in the Armenian calendar.
The given year is in the calendar adopted at the Second Council of Dvin. The individual units of time are returned by {{ARMENIANDATE/year}}, {{ARMENIANDATE/month}}, and {{ARMENIANDATE/day}}. The year, month and day can be given as parameters, but if not, they will default to the current date in UTC. The algorithms to derive it are taken from Calendrical Calculations by Nachum Dershowitz and Edward Reingold.
