Usage
[edit]{{Use|abc|def|date=MM YYYY}}
- abc represents either mdy or dmy. The first parameter controls only the datevar template, but may be left blank.
- def represents a country code from the table below for engvar. The country codes are based on the two-letter ISO country codes.
- MM YYYY represents the full month and year, such as "January 2001".
For example, {{Use|mdy|in|date=January 2001}}
returns {{Use mdy dates|date=January 2001}}{{Use Indian English|date=January 2001}}
.
