Is there a way to include the navigaton box (similar to what I have done on year 0) ? --Sstefan 17:09, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
- I looked at doing it when I created the Date template. The problem is space. The Date template is 20% wide (20% of the window width), to match the other infobox template. I will look at adding more dates into the infobox. Tjoneslo 23:16, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
- I made a change to the Date Template to add more dates following the pattern of the Navigation box. Please look at a number of date pages to make sure they all look ok and the math works right. If you find a problem, drop a note on the date talk page so I can find it and fix the template. Tjoneslo 13:39, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Looking good...
Will you also remove the second set of dates (look to be leftover from the older template)? --Sstefan 15:36, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

We can see that the Solomani and the K'kree start dates are off from their "0" values. Dcorrin 19:10, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
- It seems that the table was wrong for K'kree... Dcorrin 19:17, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
I fixed the template. Don't forget the Solomani calendar has no zero year, dates go ... 2 B.C., 1 B.C., 1 A.D., 2 A.D. ...
