Changing date formats

[edit]

Please review the Manual of Style regarding date formats. The 'rules' are rather complex; however, there is no "right" date format the requires "fixing", per se. Inconsistent date formats should be conformed to the same style; that style is defined largely by which style is most prevalent in the article. In other cases, "strong national ties" guide the formatting. Mainly I would counsel caution in making large-scale changes to existing date schemes. Note also that on some articles the date format is defined at the top of the article, within the editor - along the lines of "{{Use dmy dates|date=March 2020}}". I'd recommend always checking for that before making changes. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 19:06, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
