(Countdown) - Parses EventName, TimeStart and TimeEnd into a countdown, mostly used on event mentioning pages.

This template works with a JavaScript snippet that can be found either in this wiki's common.js or a gadget. It does NOT use the countdown extension.

Example Usage:

{{Countdown
|EventName=SecretPhase15thMay
|TimeStart=May 15 2020 15:00 +0900
|TimeEnd=June 4 2020 23:59 +0900
}}

Example Output:

Time Remaining:


  • Each EventName must be unique, or the countdown end message will display for all countdowns once one TimeEnd is reached.
  • When TimeStart has been reached, the countdown will show "Event has started" and provide a link to purge the page (the user can alternatively refresh).
  • If |TimeStart is not included in the template call, the template will automatically use Now as a placeholder time, and will skip the Time Until Start portion and go into the Time remaining portion.
