Template:Moratorium/doc

Purpose

This template will automatically display one of two moratorium statements based on whether a particular date has been reached or not. It should be used when an article falls under BattleTechWiki's moratorium policy guidelines. In general, this is for a new product that has just been released and lasts for two months after release.

Usage

{{Moratorium|year|month|day}}

• Parameters 1, 2, and 3 are the Year, Month, and Day that the Moratorium expires (normally 2 months from the date of release).
  • If the day is omitted, the template will activate on the first day of the specified month.
  • If the month is also omitted, the template will activate on 1 January of the specified year.
  • If the year is also omitted, the template will activate immediately.
