Usage
{{ordinal|integer}}
This template will add the appropriate ordinal indicator to a given integer.
Use {{ordinal|integer|sup=yes}} to display the ordinal suffix in superscript.
For an integer ending in 1, 2 or 3 (except for integers ending in 11, 12 or 13), the ordinal suffix will be -st, -nd and -rd, respectively. To display -d for the ordinal suffix rather than -nd and -rd, use {{ordinal|integer|d}}.
This template should not be used in running prose in entries; it is intended for automated script processing of numeric data. Writing something like "in the {{ordinal|16}} century" serves no purpose, and just makes the wikitext harder to understand and edit.
