The following are links to the relevant pages in the date linking/formatting saga.
RfCs
- Wikipedia:Date formatting and linking poll (The April 2009 RfC)

- MOSNUM: Date Linking RFC (Locke’s RfC - "RfC 2")
- MOSNUM: Unresolved date delinking and autoformatting issues RfC (Greg’s RfC)
- MOSNUM: Linking of dates of birth and death RfC (The one that shows that it's unclear whether even birth and death dates have linking consensus)
Analysis

- Cutting the Gordian knot (proposal that: "WP:MOSNUM is declared historic" - defeated).

Policy & essays

- Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style_(dates_and_numbers)/Archive_D1 (Years and dates archive)
- Wikipedia:MOSNUM talk
- Son of autoformatting specification (Attempt to find out what was being proposed by a new date formatting system - stalled)
- Fix/replace date autoformatting (UCB's thoughts and ensuing discussion on a new system for date linking/formatting)
- It's the square brackets, stupid! (Sapphic's attempt to explain things. This is the one that contained the statistical "debate" about the number of articles that contained linked dates)
- Son of autoformatting would expose us to an extremely risky experiment (Tony1's lead produced a lengthy discussion)
- Wikipedia:Linking
- Wikipedia:Why dates should not be linked (Greg L's essay)
- Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Why dates should not be linked (LC's attempt to remove the page)

- Sewer cover in front of Greg L’s house (Example of overlinking)
Coding
- Bugzilla ID 4582 (The three-year saga)
- Most recent demo page (For the proposed date formatting/linking system.) Thanks to a recent brain explosion, the demo doesn't demonstrate quite as much as it did—and is a little blue.
- Werdna's addition (to the current date formatting/linking system)
- Date test (Ohconfucius' test page for Werdna's patch)
- UCB's first attempt at a solution
- UCB's second attempt at a solution
- UCB's next attempt at a solution (This is the discussion that proved that Bug 4582 was not RESOLVED at the time it was claimed in RfC2 that a "patch" was available)
- UCB's next attempt at a solution (This is the one that led to the "Specification for 'son of autoformatting'" page)
Date templates
