Template:ANEWS nav/doc

This template produces links to the previous and next versions of the current month's administrators' newsletter.

Definitions

This is maybe the third time that I've used parser functions in a template, so I apologize for the rustiness of the implementation – it's rather difficult to read. Below are a few definitions that might aid in readability. Mz7 (talk) 04:06, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

this year = {{CURRENTYEAR}}
this month = {{#time: n}}

previous year = {{#expr: this year - 1}}
previous month = {{#expr: (((this month - 2) + 12) mod 12) + 1}}

next year = {{#expr: this year + 1}}
next month = {{#expr: ((this month) mod 12) + 1}}

if this month == 1, then
    previous issue = [[Wikipedia:Administrators' newsletter/previous year/previous month]]
otherwise,
    previous issue = [[Wikipedia:Administrators' newsletter/this year/previous month]]

current issue = [[Wikipedia:Administrators' newsletter/this year/this month]]

if this month == 12, then
    next issue = [[Wikipedia:Administrators' newsletter/next year/next month]]
otherwise,
    next issue = [[Wikipedia:Administrators' newsletter/this year/next month]]
