One-time events

To add an event, create a page with the event name as a title (don't be afraid to use spaces/punctuation). Then place the Event template at the beginning, with the date of the event as an argument. Like this:

{{Event|1970-08-09 10:00}}

The event should now show up in the event list.

Repeating events

Create a page and put the RecurringEvent template at the beginning. The template takes several arguments.

start
the date of the first event instance
end (optional)
date after which no events of this type occur
period
how many days between each event
unit (optional)
unit in which the period is counted instead of days (values: week, month, ...)
date description
human-readable desciption of the periodic dates
include (optional)
additional dates to include (; separated)
exclude (optional)
dates to be excluded (; separated)

Example:

{{RecurringEvent
|start=2013-01-10, 19:00
|date description=Every thursday at 19:00.
|period=7
}}
