Dts stands for Date Table Sorting and is used to correctly sort and display dates in a sortable table (see Help:Sorting).

[संपादित करें] What it solves
Normally, for proper sorting dates must be entered in YYYY-MM-DD format. But this does not conform to the Manual of Style for date display and wikilinking.
This template automatically creates the hidden <span style="display:none">1776-07-04</span>
for sorting purposes and then displays and wikilinks the date properly like this July 4 1776, depending on the user's Special:Preferences.
[संपादित करें] Parameters
- 1st parameter - Day (optional)
- Day number - 7 or 07
- 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 - Year
- 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
- 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.

- Template loop detected: साँचा:Links-small - allows quarters, and allows sorting of time periods by end date.
- m:Template:dts (talk, backlinks, edit) - since on Meta e.g. 09999 9999 induces numeric sort mode, "&" is prefixed to force string sort mode
- Template loop detected: साँचा:Links-small - obsolete
