#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

Quote from help: ''It is possible to have 'fall through' values, where several case strings return the same result string. This minimises duplication.'' — It doesn't seem to work for me. Instead, an empty string is returned for cases where right-hand side is emty. --Lozman 14:19, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Example for first black president
The above example should change on Jan. 20, 2009. --Ed Poor 20:40, 9 January 2009 (UTC)


 * That won't because there is no Template:Age in days on this wiki, and even if there were, #if only checks nullity. Try something like:
