Combine with wayback?
Can someone who knows how combine this with wayback by using if-then statements that put an asterisk in place of the date if none is specified, please? &mdash;msh210 02:36, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Merge
Any reasons to keep (vs. merge/redirect) all of these templates?
 * Template:Wayback has a merge tag (was to dlw, I switched it to point here). (almost 150 in use)
 * Template:dlw (1 in use) and Template:dlw-inline (0 in use (mainspace)) are both marked deprecated
 * Template:Waybackdate (here)

Also, this page needs an example in the docs, and Using the Wayback Machine needs an update. (I was just trying to track down what happened to Template:Waybackref, and found these looking mess-like. I'll try to take another look at it later, but I don't know any of the history). -- Quiddity (talk) 08:59, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
 * There's no reason I can think of not to merge them. --zenohockey (talk) 18:08, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
