MOS:DATE question

What dating convention should we be using on this page, MDY or DMY? The US and Canada (I think) both use MDY, but CONCACAF and Mexico both use DMY. I don't know if the North American Football Union has a website to verify which they would use, but wanted to establish which format we should be using for this page.

Interesting question. Probably better to ask at Talk:Leagues Cup rather than here though. I see that articles on the old NAFC Championship & NAFU Cup articles used DMY, but the old Superliga articles use MDY. Given that this is much closer to the Superliga (being just an agreement between MLS & Liga MX), and not all of the NAFU (ie too bad the CPL is not included), I would think the NAFU's preference is not particularily relevant.

I'm so used to both formats that I never even notice which is being used at a given point, so it's a unimportant detail for my concern, but apparently it really bothers some people. Gecko G (talk) 03:08, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I mostly just want it to be consistent across the page. In this instance, I think MDY makes more sense since both of the English-speaking countries competing use MDY. I checked the Spanish page and it uses DMY, which makes perfect sense there, but I don't see a reason to use it on the English page. Jay eyem (talk) 04:51, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

An event hosted primarily in the US, especially those involving US teams, should use MDY. Canada can flip either way, while Mexico is not a factor due to favoring the date system of English-speaking countries when taking MOS:DATE into account. Sounder Bruce 04:04, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly I think that makes the most sense to me, especially since the English-speaking countries involved here use MDY. Just wanted to make sure since both here and on the group stage page I am seeing a mix of both, so just wanted to make sure we were being consistent.

I am happy with MDY on all Leagues Cup articles. BLAIXX 02:58, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in 2023 Leagues Cup

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 2023 Leagues Cup's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "regulations":

From 2023 CONCACAF Champions League: "Scotiabank CONCACAF Champions League 2023 Regulations" (PDF). CONCACAF.
From 2023 CONCACAF Nations League Finals: "CONCACAF Nations League 2022–2023 Regulations" (PDF). CONCACAF. pp. 14, 22. Retrieved March 22, 2023.
From 2022 CONCACAF League: "Scotiabank CONCACAF League 2021 Regulations" (PDF). CONCACAF.
From 2019 UEFA Europa League final: "2018/19 UEFA Europa League regulations" (PDF). UEFA.com. Union of European Football Associations. 10 May 2018. Retrieved 12 May 2018.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT ⚡ 04:33, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
