Template: Death date and age?

What is the relation of this template to the confusingly similarly worded, but much more commonly used, Template:Death date and age? I'm not confident enough about these templates to propose a merge myself, but don't like the fact they're worded so similarly without explanation of their relation. (To keep the discussion in one place, I suggest people discuss this at the other template's talk page, where I've also raised the question.) Dsp13 (talk) 17:03, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Age calculation needs improvement

The calculated age needs a range for some combinations of months and years. Someone born in 1900 who died in 1970 could be either 69 or 70 years old at the time of death. {{Death date and age}} has some code that might be helpful. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:25, 5 April 2015 (UTC)

It doesn't look like anyone is working on this template. Just to give an example of this problem:

{{death-date and age}} gives 31 July 1975 (1975-08-01) (aged 22)

{{death date and age}} gives 31 July 1975(1975-07-31) (aged 21–22)

when both are give full death date and just birth year. There is a note that this doesn't work, but as Jonesey95 said, the code exists in one template to calculate the age correctly. MB 02:21, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

How to fix?

Can someone please help, Cor Melchers was 61 when he died, but 60 is displayed. I can't find how to solve it. Sander.v.Ginkel ^(Talk) 23:02, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

The template has a bug in it. I documented the bug and used a different template in the article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 23:17, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
