Yes, please! I tried all sorts of things, and eventually I had to come up with this imperfect workaround in order to state languages in the infobox. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 06:11, 22 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done The duplicate (or alternate) History section appears to be present in a couple hundred pages. The parameters that create it do not appear to be documented. I suppressed it with an #if statement if none of the parameters are populated, and it worked on the testcases page and in a couple of pages that I checked. Please ping me with any error reports. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:38, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This (via parameters like |year_start=1741|year_end=1867|date_start=July 15|date_end=October 18) is outputting dates in non-standard (not-MOS:DATE-permissible) format, as July 15 1741 and October 18 1867 – as seen at Russian colonization of North America.
By default, it should be doing 18 October 1867 (dmy being the more common format, site-wide). With some parameter switch like |date_format=mdy or |mdy=yes, it should output US-format dates as October 18, 1867. But October 18 1867 isn't a thing. — SMcCandlish☏¢ 😼 21:44, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
