Modiwl:TimeAgo
Gwedd
This module is subject to page protection. It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing. |
This template is used on 102,000+ pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this template should first be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to the template. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
The module “TimeAgo” implements {{Time ago}}. See the template's page for documentation. Test cases can be found at Module talk:TimeAgo/testcases and Template:Time ago/testcases.
