Date Table Sorting

• 1st parameter – Year (optional if month is given)
  • Year number – number in the range -9999 through 9999: the numbers -9999 through 0 are used without "bc" and represent astronomical years -9999 through 0, the numbers 1 through 9999 represent that year AD, or BC with the fourth parameter set to bc or BC
• 2nd parameter – Month (optional if the day is not given either)
  • Full month name – February or february
  • Abbreviated month name – Feb or feb
  • Month number – 2 or 02
• 3rd parameter – Day (optional)
  • Day number – 7 or 07
• 4th parameter – optional with value BC or bc
  • Used with a positive year number

Thus e.g. for the year 5 BC we can use "5|bc" or "-4".

A time period (year or month and year) is sorted according to its start, and time periods with the same starting moment are in order of descending length: a year comes before its first month; a month comes before its first day.

• 1st parameter – the full date in international, US or ISO format
  • It uses {{#time:}} and so is limited to what the parser function can handle (e.g. it won't go beyond 100 AD).
  • International format is left as it is. ISO format defaults to US format.
  • Abbreviated months are accepted.
  • Capitilisation and comma mistakes are corrected.
