Template:Age in years and days (textual)
This template returns the number of full years and surplus days between two specified dates. If the second set of parameters is not included, it will return the number of full years and surplus days between a specified date and today's date. The two numbers are separated by the word "and"; the words "year" and "day" are plural when appropriate. The {{nts}} template is included in the year value, so that values produced by this template will work properly in sortable lists. See Wikipedia:Age calculation templates for more information on using this kind of template.

- 13px
{{Age in years and days (textual) |1980|07|14 |1993|06|233}}
returns: 12 years and 554 days (surplus days do not count as extra months) - 13px

{{Age in years and days (textual) |2007|02|27 |2008|03|02}}
returns: 1 year and 4 days
When split:
{{Age in years and days (textual) |2007|02|27 |2007|03|02}}
returns: 0 years and 3 days{{Age in years and days (textual) |2007|03|02 |2008|03|02}}
