Problem
In ISO 8601 ranges can be given by start and end time seperated by /
Alternativly seperated by --
On my wiki I use -- because / looks to much like subpage. This also works for filenames while / not.
Higher order elements can be ommitted in the end time.
- examples with shortened dates (ISO conform)
- 2007-12-31--2008-01-01 year end year start party
- 2007-11-20--12-15 an example with crossing month border but not year border
- 2007-12-24--26 christmas time
one could also use time
- 2008-01-14 10:15--11:45 computer science lecture in Giessen university
- display
I don't know how powerfull mediawiki is. Maybe one needs an extra table which stores the start and end time for each event page. Could be filled on page-save for all pages that start with a datetime.
I have an extra table
- page_id
- time_start
- time_end
This extra table could also be used to increase performance in case the event template is not used, but article are collected for calendar based on that the title starts with a date. See Issue:Calendar - without event template Tobias Conradi 00:50, 23 December 2007 (CET)
