{{High-use}}

=== Usage ===
This template is used for displaying a date in both Old Style and New Style, including a discreet link to the article [[Old Style and New Style dates]], in cases where the {{em|year is the same in both Styles}}.

<nowiki>{{OldStyleDate|NS day and month|year|OS day and month}}</nowiki>

If it helps you remember the order of the parameters, you may optionally choose to think of it like this:

<nowiki>{{OldStyleDate|NS day and month|NS year|OS day and month|OS year}}</nowiki>

Note that in this usage the fourth parameter will be ignored when the template is rendered (since the year is the same, otherwise use {{tlg|OldStyleDateDY}}).

=== Examples ===
* Usage: <code><nowiki>{{OldStyleDate|2 February|1905|20 January}}</nowiki></code>
** Result: {{OldStyleDate|2 February|1905|20 January}}

* Usage: <code><nowiki>{{OldStyleDate|February 2|1905|January 20}}</nowiki></code>
** Result: {{OldStyleDate|February 2|1905|January 20}}

=== See also ===
* {{Tl|OldStyleDateDY}}{{snd}}for dates where '''the year''' in the Old Style '''is different''' from the New Style
** Example: {{OldStyleDateDY|17 January|1706|6 January 1705}}

* {{Tl|OldStyleDateNY}}{{snd}}for displaying only the day and the month (no year)
** Example: {{OldStyleDateNY|13 October|2 October}}

* {{Tl|Old Style to New Style}}{{snd}}for displaying the Old Style date first with the new style date in square brackets after

* {{Tl|which calendar}}{{snd}}for use with dates where it is unclear if New Style or Old Style is used
