This template converts date elements, or date and time elements, into a Julian date timestamp. It interprets all dates starting at 15 October 1582 in the Gregorian calendar, otherwise it uses the Julian calendar that was valid until 4 October 1582.
Gregory's calendar reform modified the Julian rule, to reduce the average length of the calendar year from 365.25 days to 365.2425 days and thus corrected the Julian calendar's drift against the solar year: the Gregorian calendar gains just 0.1 day over 400 years. For any given event during the years from 1901 through 2099, its date according ...
