References date formats
editLatest edit to article changed some ref dates from day-month-year TO month-day-year (with edit reason "date formats per MOS:DATEFORMAT by script, MOS:DATEUNIFY"). Before i added refs (on October 16) I checked the existing refs in article and MOST were day-month-year:
- 18 refs of day-month-year (refs 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 17, 20, 21, 23, 25, 26, and 28).
- 9 refs of month-day-year (refs 3, 4, 12, 15, 16, 18, 19, 27, and 29).
- two UNdated refs (refs 22 and 24). (the horror, the horror)
- one ref of year-number-number (ref 30)(in this case is yyyy-mm-dd)
Day-month-year is at top of "Acceptable date formats" at MOS:DATEFORMAT (DATEFORMAT has example: "2 September 2001") and when we MOS:DATEUNIFY, doesn't it make more sense to unify in the direction of the article's ref date majority? --EarthFurst (talk) 21:18, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
