[edit] Date format
Best practice is to wikify dates into the format [[20 January]] [[2001]] or [[January 20]] [[2001]] because this displays dates to the reader in their preferred format. The examples above would both display as 20 January 2001 to a reader with British preferences set. And January 20, 2001 to a reader with U.S. preferences (the default). See how these look to you:
- 20 January 2001 displays as 20 January 2001
- [[20 January]], 2001 displays as 20 January, 2001
- [[20 January]] 2001 displays as 20 January 2001
- [[20 January]], [[2001]] displays as 20 January 2001
- [[20 January]] [[2001]] displays as 20 January 2001
- January 20, 2001 displays as January 20, 2001
- [[January 20]] 2001 displays as January 20 2001
- [[January 20]], 2001 displays as January 20, 2001
- [[January 20]], [[2001]] displays as January 20, 2001
- [[January 20]] [[2001]] displays as January 20, 2001
We don't need to wikilink subsequent appearences of the same year when they are just a year, or even a month and year. But full dates should be wikified, if for no other reason than to display that comma for U.S. readers. See WP:MOSDATE --Surgeonsmate 22:20, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Unless someone can come up with a very good reason to have non-standard dates for this article, I intend to revert to the MoS standard of January 20, 2001 throughout, because if the years in a full date are left unlinked, the commas are displayed incorrectly for some readers. --Surgeonsmate 18:15, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Date format
