This template creates a en dash-separated range that is compliant with MOS:RANGE. Its main purpose is to automatically determine whether a spaced or unspaced dash is to be used, based on the presence of whitespace, hyphens, or dashes in either term.

Usage

{{En dash range|start|end}}

Examples:

  • {{En dash range|2020|2021}}: 2020–2021
  • {{En dash range|1 January 2020|1 January 2021}}: 1 January 2020 – 1 January 2021
  • {{En dash range|1 January 2020|2021}}: 1 January 2020 – 2021
