Hi Thibaud,
> After _that_, I think we’ll be in an excellent place for someone to pick
up this ticket and write the right docs.
What I can understand by going through this ticket is that we need to add
more explicit examples of input formats to the form fields in our Docs. To
get more clarity, I would like to know if the requirement is somewhat like
detailed examples stated in DateTimeField
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/forms/fields/#datetimefield
whereas just a link to accepted formats is given in DateField
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/forms/fields/#datefield. So are
we looking to provide more information here?
> A good first step would be to identify where in Django’s documentation
we could document what’s discussed in this ticket.
If my understanding of the ticket is apt, I would say adding the details
within the respective fields themselves would be better as it would
provide an easier understanding to the end user at a glance rather than
moving to an altogether different section.
Please correct me if I am proceeding in the wrong direction.
