That would be a Schroedinger date - cell content is a date but not at the same
time. What you can do is to not accept input as date unless the year is added
too (21.8. becomes text if the acceptance pattern is D.M.Y without the D.M.).

If we talk about the Text Import dialog, you can change the "Column type" to
Text in order to not read 21.8.2023 as a date value.

Does this help?
