These templates (

{{Birth date}} and

{{Birth date and age}}) return a person's date of birth and optionally his/her age.

Syntax:

{{Birth date|year of birth|month of birth|day of birth}}

or

{{Birth date and age|year of birth|month of birth|day of birth}}

Examples:

{{Birth date|1993|2|24}} returns "(1993-02-24)ފެބްރުއަރީ 24, 1993"
{{Birth date and age|1993|2|24}} returns (1993-02-24) ފެބްރުއަރީ 24, 1993 (31 އަހަރު )

The templates also return the date, hidden by CSS, in the ISO 8601 format needed by hCard microformats. for example:

(<span class="bday">1993-02-24</span>)

See the microformats project for details.

Note: The template will appear broken when the parameters are left blank (as seen above).
