Nazca lines
The Nazca lines are a group of geoglyphs made in the soil of the Nazca Desert in southern Peru. They were created in two major phases – the Paracas phase (from 400  to 200 BC) and the Nazca phase (from 200 BC to 500 AD). The combined length of all the lines is more than 1,300 km (800 mi), and the group covers an area of about 50 km2 (19 sq mi). Most lines run straight across the landscape, but there are also figurative designs of animals and plants. Scholars differ in interpreting the purpose of the designs, but in general, they ascribe religious significance to them. The lines were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994. This is an aerial view of the geoglyph known as the "monkey", one of the most well-known in the Nazca lines.Photograph credit: Diego Delso

POTD Test Code[edit]

  • TEST 01: The code {{POTD/{{#time:Y-m-d}}|image}} just displays the file name without a hyperlink:
    Líneas de Nazca, Nazca, Perú, 2015-07-29, DD 49.JPG
  • TEST 02: This extended code (derived from TEST 01) does not work at all:
    {{POTD/{{#time:CURRENTYEAR-CURRENTMONTH-CURRENTDAY}}|image}}
  • TEST 03: The code within this template extracted from Wiki Commons does not work as planned within the English Wikipedia:
    {{picture of the day|year=2015|month=02|day=07}}
  • This is the Wikipedia code variant (displayed below):
    {{Pic of the day|date=2019-08-13}}

BMW S1000RR
The BMW S1000RR is a sport bike made by BMW Motorrad. It was introduced in 2008, initially for competition in the 2009 Superbike World Championship, and has been in commercial production since then. Powered by a 999 cc (61.0 cu in) four-cylinder engine, redlined at 14,200 rpm, it delivers 133.6 kW (179.2 hp; 181.6 PS) to the rear wheel, making it the most powerful motorcycle in the class. Rubén Xaus and Troy Corser rode the bike for its inaugural Superbike World Championship in 2009, gaining highest finishes of fifth and seventh respectively, but it achieved greater success in the 2010 FIM Superstock 1000 championship season, with rider Ayrton Badovini winning every single race but one on the S1000RR.Photograph credit: Stefan Krause
