Template:UnsignedIP/doc

Template:TOCright Please note that this template must be substituted. Replace {{unsignedIP}} with {{subst:unsignedIP}}.

Used to append a 'signature' to anonymous unsigned comments, as no User page should exist for anonymous IPs. This template is similar to Template:Tl.

Usage

{{subst:unsignedIP|user name|date}}

user name

name or IP of user who left comment

date

datestamp from edit history (remember to label it UTC)

The datestamp from the edit history appears in your local time that is set in your preferences.
In order for the time to be UTC, adjust it using the difference you designated between the server time and local time.

Examples

Typing: {{subst:unsignedIP|255.255.255.255|11:15, 24 January 2008 (UTC)}} will yield:
