== Research Note Box for Estimated Dates ==

This [[Research Note Boxes|Research Note Box]] should be used when a date is a [[Help:Estimated_Dates|rough estimate]].

To use it, just insert <nowiki>{{Estimated Date}}</nowiki> at the top of the profile, above the <nowiki>== Biography ==</nowiki> headline like this:
<div class="EXAMPLE">
<nowiki>{{Estimated Date}}</nowiki><br />
<nowiki>== Biography ==</nowiki>
</div>

<nowiki>{{Estimated Date}}</nowiki> assumes that the estimated date is a birth date. If it's a death or marriage date, or more than one date, enter one of the following:
*  <nowiki>{{Estimated Date|Death}}</nowiki>
*  <nowiki>{{Estimated Date|Marriage}}</nowiki>
*  <nowiki>{{Estimated Date|Birth and Death}}</nowiki>
*  <nowiki>{{Estimated Date|Birth and Marriage}}</nowiki>
*  <nowiki>{{Estimated Date|Death and Marriage}}</nowiki>
*  <nowiki>{{Estimated Date|Birth Death and Marriage}}</nowiki>

Always explain how you estimated the date in a [[Research Notes]] section.

Note that this template replaced the old [[Template:DateGuess]] and [[Template:DateGuess2]].
