The user is advised to study those pages, relate to what he wants and experiment before getting to the forum and ask questions.
If you think a formatting is in error (e.g. you can't get what you want) please report in the forum: you may have made an error or it is a bug or it needs to be documented specifically.
 
There are some tag names (e.g. moon rise) that relate to an event that does not happen each Earth day, so those tags have to be able to report "--:--". Equally, many of the tag names that describe extreme records for this month/year/all-time are not defined until the respective period reaches its second day, so again those tags may output hyphens. When hyphens are output, output modifiers have no effect.
