Description

This template provides a simple countdown. The automatic default for the RFC bot is to let an RFC stay open for 30 days, so this has been taken as the default run time.

Warning: The figures may only update when a page is purged. Consequently this template may be of limited use for a rarely updated talk page.

Usage

{{RFC countdown| date RFC started | total run time in days | RFC}}

Only the first parameter is mandatory and should be set to the date the RFC was raised. The date should be in the format "YYYY-MM-DD".

The optional total run time defaults to 30 and may be set to any number.

The optional third parameter displays "This RFC will close in <n> days." only if the parameter equals "RFC".
