My reading of the documentation there <i>was</i> that you need both (i.e. <code>cat</code> only works if <code>date</code> is null).

Actually, leaving <code>cat</code> empty will default to categorizing the page in <a href="/wiki/Category:All_pages_needing_cleanup" title="Category:All pages needing cleanup">Category:All pages needing cleanup</a>, which would be desirable for this template.
