Usage

Produces a representation of a date. First parameter is the display text; second is the style; third is the link text (defaults to the display text). Style parameters:

(parameter empty or absent): no link
y/yy: link
n: no link even after y
t: no link even after y, but return the link text
s: displays AD or BC in small capitals
a: adds AD if no b
p: places AD as prefix (only valid with a)
b: adds BC
d: adds (decade) to link only, and only if immediately following b

The above options can be combined, in that order (but t not with n or s).
