Description

This module calculates the status of review cycles based on a given date. It is primarily used to determine whether a page's last review is still current, approaching its deadline, or overdue.

It is designed to work together with Semantic MediaWiki properties (especially Has cycle status and Last reviewed).

Note on this page's own SMW data: This is a Module: namespace page. The same SMW namespace-exclusion issue found on Template:Admin Page Status/doc and Template:GameModule/doc (Template: namespace pages silently not storing `#set` data) likely also applies to Module: namespace pages by default. Until `$smwgNamespacesWithSemanticLinks` is confirmed to include `NS_MODULE`, the Admin Page Status data below may not appear in Special:Browse even though it is correctly stored via Cargo — this is expected, not a new bug.

Available Functions

cycleStatus

Returns the current review status of a page.

Usage

{{#invoke:CalibrationCycle|cycleStatus|review_date|threshold_in_days}}

Parameters

Parameter Type Required Description
review_date string Yes The date of the last review in YYYY-MM-DD format.
threshold_in_days number No Number of days before a review is considered overdue. Defaults to 90 if not provided.

Return Values

Value Meaning
Current Review is still within the acceptable window.
Due Soon Review is approaching the deadline (within the last 25% of the cycle).
Overdue Review date has passed the threshold.
Unknown No valid date was provided.

Examples

{{#invoke:CalibrationCycle|cycleStatus|2026-07-08|90}}
{{#invoke:CalibrationCycle|cycleStatus|2025-01-01}}

daysSince

Returns the number of whole days since the given date.

Usage

{{#invoke:CalibrationCycle|daysSince|review_date}}

Parameters

Parameter Type Required Description
review_date string Yes Date in YYYY-MM-DD format.

Return Values

  • Returns the number of days as a string.
  • Returns an empty string if the date is invalid or missing.

Example

{{#invoke:CalibrationCycle|daysSince|2026-07-08}}

Usage in Templates

This module is typically called from within another template (such as Template:Admin Page Status) rather than directly on pages.

Example from inside a template:

| Has cycle status = {{#invoke:CalibrationCycle|cycleStatus|{{{review_date|}}}|{{{review_threshold|90}}}}}

Calibration Dependencies

Note: This module was exercised extensively during today's SMW namespace bug investigation, and its own hardening pass (validation and error-handling fixes) was itself a Calibration Report finding — see [[Talk:Module:CalibrationCycle]].
