  Right. Which we basically have 
; even though I would 
say you should not choose “my date format”, you should choose your language. 
Which you do, obviously. And it is completely obvious what date was meant by 
any Czech-speaking user who wrote “7. 1. 1967”.

  We don’t do i18n based on geolocation, I believe. And I see no reason why we 
should.
  
  (See also sortable tables with dates in them 
.)

  And problem with certain dates: I wanted to add 1905-06-07. So I typed 
6.7.1905 but date was displayed as july instead of june. So I switched nubers 
and typed 7.6.1905. The result was again as july.

  There is also great inconsistency. Why does "7. 12. 1967" produce 
"1967-12-07" while " 7. 1. 1967" produces "1967-07-01"?

  @Urbanecm: Why geolocalization when we have language settings (or at least an 
educated guess) per user? It's the same one that shows labels and descriptions 
in some languages and hides others.

  For example USA (Red) does not usually put dots between the codes. So it's 
MM/DD/ rather than MM.DD., which is really quite rarely used.

  MDY is mentioned the article several times (Magenta row is the one you 
mentioned, but there's also Blue (171 millions) and red (329 millions)). That's 
about 500 millions of users in total. Yes, DMY is more frequent, but MDY is not 
that rare.

  According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country , MDY is 
very rare (0.55 Million users).

  Well, both MM. DD.  and DD. MM.  are used somewhere. Without making 
use of geolocalization data, it is impossible to tell which one user meant, 
except cases when DD>12.
  
  Possible solutions:
  
  - decline this task
  - (no geodata) a preference saying "my dates are always in DD. MM. 
  - geodata and priority of formats based on source country.
