Template:Date/sandbox
From LGPedia

Error: Invalid time. {{subst:CURRENTTIMESTAMP}}:This template was created for demo purposes. Do not use it on actual content pages.
This template converts a YearMonthDay timestamp into the standard LGPedia date string and categorizes the page under Category:Videos by date.
Usage
{{Date/sandbox}}
This adds today.
{{Date/sandbox|TIMESTAMP}}
By manually adding a timestamp, you can pre- or post-date videos.
Date formatting
Dates have to be formatted year, month, date; zero-padded, no punctuation. If you did it right, you should have a total of eight digits. Christmas Eve 2007 would be formatted as 20071224, for example.
For comparison and understanding:
- Today is Thursday, April 25, 2024.
- In digits, this would either be 04/25/2024 (US) or 25/04/2024 (majority of the world).
- Formatted correctly for the template, it would be 20240425.
