#time
Why is it that the time function y only works for years before 2000? For example,   yields 08 (currently, when the year changes to 2009 presumably it will yield 09 at that point) when it should yield 02. This is very frustrating when trying to construct things utilizing dates with 2 digits. It doesn't seem to matter for 1999 and before, though. Examples:   yields   yields   yields   yields Thanks for any help that anyone may be able to provide. I had no idea where to post this question, but hopefully this is the right spot. 24.236.101.233

 * You just need to make the date look more like a date. A 4 digit number staring with a 2 isn't enough. Try:  or  . See strtotime. Splarka 21:35, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Creating optional parameters in templates?
I am trying to make an infobox template for a local wiki about PC game modifications, where people can enter several parameters such as Screenshot and Leader, but if they don't, then those fields should not appear in the infobox at all. My code at the moment is:

However, at present, the infobox still shows empty parameters; I want it to skip those altogether. The template is at http://www.twcenter.net/wiki/Template:Mod. Any help would be greatly appreciated. <font color="#006600;">It Is Me Here  <font color="#CC6600;">t / <font color="#CC6600;">c 13:18, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
