  WARNING: JS Date are horrible and you should not use them. Use a library like moment.js instead. when using it normally you should be fine but anything before 1970 will be wrong. also timezones are not supported so you need to use UTC which is conflicts with wikidata that assumes that all dates are in the local timezone

  • property: `P${number}`

    the property of the snak in 'P-form'

  • date: Date

    the Date object
