Date Project

Most delinking of day month/month day done.

I am spending some time tidying up dates (not bare years), using search and replace. Inevitably a few problems can occur, as search and replace is only moderately smart. To mitigate this I check the diff of each page, and I think I catch most errors. I also try to improve my methods to stop errors recurring. If you've caught an error, please either fix it, let me know or (ideally) both. You may have been very quick, I may have missed it, or I may have had some kind of event preventing me checking, regardless I am happy to hear from you.

Some of the strange stuff I have found.
